Bill 1340, now signed into law; and

citizens and City's desire to maintain a safe and
healthy environment a permanent board needs to be
developed within the structure of city government; and

the Environmental Board in order to meet new state
recycling requirements and to act in an advisory
capacity to the City Council in matters pertaining to
the City's Curbside Recycling Program.
