Directors Present: Dan Worthington, Art Perry Staff Present: Rob Harriers, Tom Fauth, Joan Revak, Bobby Young Director Worthington called the meeting to order at 9:00 a.m. STRATEGIC PLANNING 2003 - PUBLIC OUTREACH — CLASSROOM RECYCLING • PROJECT • In response to a Strategic Planning 2003 Workshop goal under Public Outreach, Director Worthington presented suggestions for District sponsorship of a School classroom project. Such a presentation could begin with a viewing of the CMSD video educating the students on the many services provided by the District and followed with some type of inter - active demonstration, such as displaying a plastic bag containing 50 recyclable items and 50 items that are not recyclable. The students decide which are recyclable and which are not. This could be followed by a 15- minute question and answer period. Another suggestion is to hire a professional person who puts on programs at schools addressing recycling issues. Director Worthington also proposed the idea of the District purchasing a shell -like trailer that would accommodate 25 -30 students where recycling exhibits could be displayed and a teacher or District representative could hold an instruction period on recycling. The District could loan or rent to other agencies. Director Perry suggested a grade school level and project be selected to involve schools in a recycling project. Mr. Flamers suggested looking into the cost of such a trailer. ftotecting our community s keaftk 6y proviXing sol dwaste andsewercoilzction services. cos ta mesasa nita rydu trict. org 17J • ��S�SANITjR`O' ,� Costa Mesa Sanitary District ° °`' Minutes of Recycling Committee Meeting March 11, 2003 �O�POeATE °�� Page 2 Another idea presented was a classroom- composting project.
