In order to promote sustainability through source reduction, recycling, and composting activities, the Town of Fairfax proposes to adopt this recycling space allocation chapter.
Fairfax encourages the participation of the residential, commercial, industrial, and public sectors in recycling of solid waste.
The lack of adequate areas for collecting and loading recyclable materials that are compatible with surrounding land uses is a significant impediment to diverting solid waste and constitutes a need for Fairfax to address access to solid waste for source reduction, recycling, and composting activities. This chapter has been developed to meet that need.
