a. Recommending SWAB goals to the Borough Assembly
Chair Szabo told the Board he wanted the goals set on the agenda because as everyone was
aware the effectiveness of SWAB had been called into question and at the Assemblies work
session the following evening the Assembly was going to discuss the goals and direction of
SWAB. He said he thought it would be worthwhile for the Board to attempt to chart their own
course a bit and come up with recommendations to the Assembly how they could assist the
Assembly.
It was MOVED, T. Martin and seconded to open discussion on SWAB goals to make
recommendation to the Assembly. Discussion followed, points made; Recycling, placement of
recyclables, reducing cost of recycling, working with contractor, feedback from contractor,
transfer stations, public outreach /education, specific direction from Assembly, the need for an
enforcement officer, stick with the Mission Statement, get Threshold and Contractor together.
Chair Szabo asked the Board what goals they wanted to present to the Assembly. The Board
asked that Chair Szabo write a statement saying the Board wanted to continue with their
mission and they were committed to support the Assembly with the contract, etc. but would
like specific direction from the Assembly.
It was MOVED, C. Harrington and seconded to Recommend SWAB goals to the Borough
Assembly. Motion CARRIED by a unanimous voice vote. •
The Board asked that W. Koning invite the Contractor and Threshold to a meeting with the
Board the end of May.
