The City of Boulder has a Universal Zero Waste ordinance that requires all businesses and multi-family complexes (like apartment buildings and condos) to provide recycling and composting bins that have appropriate signage located directly above or on the bins. There are thousands of businesses and complexes in Boulder, and many of them need support in complying with the ordinance, either in getting the signage or bins they need, or in awareness that these services are now legally required. Eco-Leaders provide much-needed help in keeping an eye out for businesses who could use some assistance. We can assign businesses as part of Eco-Leaders’ neighborhood maps OR assign businesses to Eco-Leaders who frequent particular businesses in Boulder. When businesses need more support, all we ask of Eco-Leaders is to use a link we provide that takes you to a form to fill out that goes directly to the City of Boulder. From there, a city staffer will be prompted to visit the business or complex and see what is needed. (Don’t worry, businesses get lots of support before they get in any trouble. They only get in trouble if they refuse to comply.) If you find an enthusiastic business, you can ask if they would be open to having a stack of Eco-Cycle Guides for their customers. Your neighborhood complex might appreciate some guides for their residents. Fill out this form to let Rosie know you’d like to “adopt” a business, and she’ll reach out to discuss details.
