NEW TRASH/RECYCLING CONTRACT EFFECTIVE JUNE 1:
At its April 22 meeting, the Board authorized a contract withSDI/Kerkim, LLC, to provide trash and recycling services for the Lake Monticello community. SDI currently serves clients inCharlottesville and Culpeper, as well as other Virginia localities. The service will be “single stream,” meaning that residents will nolonger have to separate their trash and recycling. The co-mingled refuse will be sorted at the Van de Linde Recycling Center at ZionCrossroads, resulting in a greater quantity of material being recycled. The process for transition from Waste Management to SDI will beworked out soon and will be announced in a special flyer that will describe what must be done to implement the change. The flyer willbe delivered to mailbox cubbyholes and posted on the website. An article on the subject also will be included in the Spring/Summer issue of the
