Onekama recycling site reported overflowing; weekly pickups and snow-removal cited
Summary
Bay Area Recycling passed photos showing overflow at the Onekama site and told the Green Team Onekama is picked up once per week; the report also flagged snow-removal problems at several sites that can affect service.
During the Jan. 7 Green Team meeting, Karla Smith-Kasten circulated photos of bin overflow at the Onekama recycling site and said, "Onekama is being picked up once per week." She told the committee that overflow photos were shared to illustrate operational pressure at that location and noted snow removal is creating access issues at a few sites.
The appendix lists Onekama among the larger collection sites (8 bins at Onekama township in Appendix A-3) and the packet signals this site sees higher volumes. Committee discussion reviewed pickup frequency but did not record changes to vendor schedules or a formal motion; staff will continue monitoring site conditions and pickups as weather and seasonal volumes change.
