☒ Receive Information ☐ Provide Direction ☐ Approve
REQUEST RATIONALE:
• Relevant Plans/Policies:
Environmental Sustainability Action Plan (ESAP): Action M4.2
Utilities Strategic Plan: Strategy 7
• Required:
N/A
• Council Request:
N/A
• Other Key Facts:
The ESAP goal of increasing the City’s diversion rate of recyclable materials from the waste stream will require a significant increase in the amount of tonnage diverted from landfill disposal from the City of Redmond.
OUTCOMES:
Construction and demolition debris from development and construction projects in the City provides a great opportunity to increase diversion. Moving construction and demolition debris toward reuse rather than landfilling will also reduce the greenhouse gas emissions associated with new building materials.
COMMUNITY/STAKEHOLDER OUTREACH AND INVOLVEMENT:
• Timeline (previous or planned):
Executive interviews have been completed, and community outreach and more stakeholder feedback will be solicited once draft ordinance language is completed in July and August of this year.
• Outreach Methods and Results:
Executive interviews of stakeholders and subject matter experts have been completed, and next we will work with Planning Department staff and stakeholders through a variety of methods. These include stakeholder engagement meetings, community surveys, project website updates, and notifications via citywide communications.
• Feedback Summary:
9 interviews were completed with 11 industry stakeholders including C&D processors, waste haulers, environmental advocacy groups, and the development community. We received constructive feedback from each sector that will help shape a Redmond specific C&D program.
