Curbside organics recycling programs <br /> <br />The county will dedicate 50% of SCORE funds to provide funding for curbside organics recycling <br />programs. Funds will be allocated using participation targets for each city. Funding is not <br />contingent upon meeting the participation target. The following formula will be used to <br />calculate a city’s grant amount. <br /> <br /> <br />Target number of households <br />with curbside organics <br />recycling in city <br />------------------------------- <br />Total target number of <br />households with curbside <br />organics recycling in county <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />x <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />50% of SCORE <br />funds available <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />= <br /> <br /> <br />Curbside organics <br />recycling amount <br />available to the city <br /> <br /> <br />Initial participation targets (as a percent of households with curbside recycling service): <br /> 50% for cities that contract for organics recycling service <br /> 10% for cities that require haulers to offer organics recycling service <br /> <br />C.

Multifamily waste reduction and recycling <br /> <br />The county will take 10% of SCORE funds, subtract the amount allocated to organics drop-off <br />sites, and dedicate the remainder to provide funding for multifamily waste reduction and <br />recycling programs. For the purposes of this policy, city waste reduction and recycling programs <br />include organics recycling. Funds will be allocated based on the number of multifamily <br />households. The following formula will be used to calculate a city’s grant amount. <br /> <br />Number of multifamily <br />households in city <br />------------------------------- <br />Total number of multifamily <br />households in county <br /> <br /> <br />x <br /> <br /> <br />10% of SCORE <br />funds available <br />minus organics <br />drop-off funds <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />= <br />Multifamily <br />waste reduction <br />and recycling <br />amount available <br />to the city <br /> <br />65
