1st Precinct MPACT/7th District Community Meeting - Wednesday, January 28, 2015

Greetings!This month we invite you to attend a MPACT conversation about the new Richmond Recycles Program. Richmond has been selected as one of four cities to partner with Curbside Value Partnership (CVP) for a first of its kind private/public recycling agreement, called CVP’s The Recycling Partnership. The program will help the City move forward with plans to provide alley collection in neighborhoods where trash is picked up in alleys.  Currently recycling is limited to curbside pick-up. In January 2015 the City will implement the initial phase of a new recycling program that will bring alley
collection to 6,000 homes in select neighborhoods. The plan is to expand the program City-wide by the end of 2015. In addition, we will have a very special guest speaker...the Honorable Councilwoman Cynthia Newbille will discuss Public Safety! Special guests will include Col. Ray Tarasovic, Chief of Police, Fire Chief Robert Creecy, and CAPS, just to name a few. Please arrive promptly at 6PM, the East District Center (EDI) at 701 N. 25th St. Feel free to call 646-3108 if you have any questions. Light refreshments will be provided.
