Glen Cove Chapter 235 Part 2 (Recycling) makes participation in the city's recycling program mandatory for all residential, commercial, industrial and institutional entities within the city. Recyclables must be source-separated and placed for collection following DPW guidelines.
The mandatory program separates fiber (paper, cardboard), commingled containers (glass, metal, plastic), and yard waste. The Department of Public Works publishes the current accepted materials list and collection schedule. Co-mingling recyclables with garbage results in refused collection and potential citation. Commercial generators must arrange recycling service either through the city or a private licensed hauler that reports diversion data.
Failure to recycle is a Chapter 235 violation enforceable under § 1-15 (up to $1,000 / 15 days). DPW may refuse to collect contaminated bins.
