Concerns focused on costs, frequency of collection, and wildlife issues. Those issues will be explored further in Phase Two.

Printed surveys are available at municipal halls across the Central Okanagan, and the administration office at the Glenmore Landfill.

They can be returned to each municipality or the RDCO office at 1450 KLO Road by July 2.
