Council hears final reading to clarify recycling rules after DEP review

City of Chester Deliberative Meeting · August 12, 2026

Summary

Chief presented Bill 8 as a final reading to amend the city's recycling ordinance to incorporate DEP feedback about city‑sponsored events and material classifications; the transcript shows presentation and council confirmation but no recorded adoption vote in this session.

Chief (speaker 3) told council that Bill 8, presented for final reading, updates the city’s recycling ordinance to reflect feedback from the Department of Environmental Protection. “They basically wanted to see a couple changes to our recycling ordinance,” the chief said, and staff incorporated the clarified language into the bill packet.

Council confirmed the new language is in the packet and would be incorporated into the ordinance. The transcript records the presentation and clarifying Q&A but does not include a roll‑call vote or formal adoption outcome for Bill 8 in the provided segments (outcome: not specified).
