摘要

At one time, the City of Mesa had a thriving office paper program consisting of white, colored, and computer paper. Although the program focused internally, lack of efficiency made it necessary to open the program to our external businesses. Each business wishing to participate was given three blue barrels, one for computer, white and colored paper. The only stipulation to participation was that the business must have City of Mesa trash service. With the expansion to external customers, the program grew to over 200 stops. For over 8 years, the program got little if any attention and the only education was on an as needed basis. The only change came years into the program with the combining of the material into an Office Pack, thus eliminating the segregation of paper. The lack of efficiency was enormous. The route was run via a stake body truck that returned to the service yard every time it was full of barrels causing additional miles, fuel, wear and tear, etc. Additionally, when there were enough barrels to make a load for the recycling facility, all the barrels had to be manually loaded onto the truck. This process was very labor intensive. With the new millennium came a major change to the program. Historically our recycling contract limited us to what was acceptable so our trucks were driving past the same business more than three times per week, once for trash, once for recyclables and once for office paper. An adjustment to our contract, a new facility and a lot of begging led to the combining of our office paper route with our curbside recycling route. The consolidation was much easier with the external businesses than with our own City employees. External customers were educated via our ongoing commingled recycling campaign, but our internal recycling programs were suffering due to lack of enthusiasm. This sparked a creative ember in staff who made it their goal to provide fun, ongoing education to the City's employees. Once again, the focus turned internal. Staff proposed, and City Council passed, a resolution that mandated City employees use only paper with 30% recycled content. From this point, the education of our employees took comical turn. In June 2001, Ms. Gertrude (Gertie) Thirty was introduced as the new office manager of a fictitious division focusing strictly on recycling. Gertie's staff has grown to include Bartholomew Winston Rutherford III and Lexi Winters. Bartholomew's responsibilities include the education in the finer points of paper recycling. Lexi's focus is to encourage employees to recycle ALL commodities, including office paper. Emails, posters and mysterious walk throughs provide constant reminders of the importance of recycling as well as buying recycled. The demise of what once was an office paper program came with the expansion of what is now a commingled recycling program. In December 2001 the City ran its final office paper route. The City itself is now recycling more than ever and the quantity of recycled content materials is increasing rapidly.
