Receptacles
Councillor C. Michaud has given notice to introduce the following motion
for consideration this date:
Page 5of7
"WHEREAS The Region of Waterloo proudly partners with local
municipalities, Adopt -A -Road program, the Ministry of
Transportation of Ontario (MTO), and others to promote waste
reduction and litter prevention across the region, through the cure
for litter program;
WHEREAS the Region of Waterloo is the service provider for
Grand River Transit as well as the service provider for waste
management;
WHEREAS the Region of Waterloo has expressed their
commitment to curing litter, but during the 2022 budget process
approved the removal of 240 garbage receptacles from the Grand
River Transit (GRT) stops to achieve an in -year cost savings of
$60,000 and an annual cost saving of $180,000. for 2023 and
beyond;
WHEREAS the Region of Waterloo's decision to remove the
garbage receptacles at GRT stops does provide financial cost
savings, the financial savings are arguably not off -setting the
adverse impacts on the environment and do not support the
Region's commitment to curing litter;
WHEREAS the volume of pedestrian activity at and around Grand
River Transit stops, would warrant waste receptacles to help
manage litter within our Cities; and,
WHEREAS the average distance someone will carry garbage
before littering is 12 paces and GRT Stops are high pedestrian
traffic locations;
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the City of Kitchener request
the Region of Waterloo to reinstall and manage garage
receptacles at the GRT Stop locations to promote litter prevention,
environmental leadership and respond to the needs of our
community;
THEREFORE IT FINALLY BE RESOLVED that this resolution be
shared with all other municipalities with the Region of Waterloo."
