(Complex Name) has a New Recycling Program!
Dear Resident,
A new State of California law (AB341) requires all business, apartments and
condominiums) to recycle. (Complex Name) must comply with the law, and wants
to be environmentally responsible. In order to do this, we set up a new recycling
program for our residents.
You will see a recycling container (next to the trash/ in the trash enclosure.) The
containers are well marked with recycling signage.
Plastic bottles, paper, cardboard, newspaper, etc can be placed in the new
recycling container. Please see the back of this letter for a more detail list of
recyclable materials. All this recyclable materials must be clean and can be
placed together in the recycling container. It’s all commingled!
Please don’t place plastic bags in the recycle container. You can recycle your
plastic bags at your grocery store.
Don’t place garbage, hazardous waste or any other items that are not listed
as recyclable materials.
Remember, by recycling more you will not only help the local environment but the
global environment. Recycling saves resources and energy, reduces pollution
and greenhouse gas emissions, and creates jobs.
If you have any questions about the complex’s recycling program, you may
contact me at (phone number/or e-mail address).
(Complex Name) is happy to be able to offer this program to our residents and
help make the environment in (Fairfield/Suisun) a cleaner place.
Sincerely,
Property Manager
