The program will allow recycling of certain materials for which there is a reliable market, such as newspapers, mixed papers, bottles, and cans. Building owners may, in limited cases, experience hardships in implementing recycling in certain buildings due to lack of space, etc. The measure passed by the Village Board will allow these owners an opportunity to seek an exemption from the Village. Multi-family recycling will not be required until November 23, 2000. The IPF Drop-Off Center for recyclables has an education center that is always open.
Tours are available.
Call 681-2400 for reservations and information. The IPF is located on Fullerton Avenue, between Gary Avenue and Schmale Road. The First Annual Clean Sweep Weekend was a success. 1,191 vehicles delivered hazardous waste to the drop site at College of DuPage on April 24, 1999. On that same day, volunteers picked up trash along the Prairie Path.
