Please Don’t Trash Your Recyclables!

On January 28, 2020, Council adopted Bylaw 1252-03, 2019 which makes it a ticket-able offense to place recyclables (as mandated by RecycleBC) into the waste stream.

The decision was made in order to divert as much waste as possible away from the Sechelt Landfill and to reduce bear conflict.

This bylaw amendment gives our Bylaw Officer a “next step” when chronic offenders do not respond to educational efforts.
