TITLE
RESOLUTION DIRECTING THE COUNTY MAYOR OR COUNTY MAYOR�S DESIGNEE TO ESTABLISH A RECYCLING PROGRAM FOR TRAVELERS MAKING USE OF MIAMI INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT AND TO PROVIDE A REPORT TO THE BOARD NOT LATER THAN 90 DAYS SETTING FORTH STEPS TO IMPLEMENT RECYCLING PROGRAM

BODY
WHEREAS, Miami-Dade County has been and remains committed to recycling waste materials; and
WHEREAS, there currently are no collection bins in the terminal areas of Miami International Airport for recyclables; and
WHEREAS, many other national airports provide collection bins for recyclables in their terminal areas; and
WHEREAS, Miami International Airport is the first exposure many travelers have to Miami-Dade County, and the lack of recycling bins does not properly reflect to these travelers the County�s commitment to recycling,
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS OF MIAMI-DADE COUNTY, FLORIDA, that:
Section 1. The County Mayor or County Mayor�s designee is directed to implement a recycling program for travelers at Miami International Airport, which shall include placement of recyclable collection bins in the Terminal areas of Miami International Airport.
Section 2. The County Mayor or County Mayor�s designee shall provide a report to this Board setting forth the steps taken to implement this directive not later than 90 days following the effective date of this resolution and shall place the completed report on an agenda of the Board pursuant to Ordinance No. 14-65.
