Board adopts update to county recycling ordinance after state definition changes
Summary
Staff said the state changed recycling definitions and the county's recycling ordinance—last updated in 1994—needed revision; the board voted to accept the update by voice vote.
Staff told the board that the state "contacted us, and they changed some definitions and said it needed to be updated," noting the county ordinance had not been revised since 1994. The staff presentation framed the draft changes as conforming local language to recent state definitions.
After review, the board adopted the update by voice vote. Chair recorded the motion as "The motion by Bossard, 2nd by Peterson," and the motion carried. No detailed statutory citation was provided at the meeting; staff said the changes derive from state-level definition updates.
The change was characterized as an administrative update to align county ordinance language with state definitions; staff will circulate the adopted text and any implementation details in follow-up materials.
