CITY SPOTLIGHT Rachel Savain, City of Hollywood
Crews at Work! Clear the Way for Collection Trucks With over 600,000 stops each month and a tight schedule to keep each day, there’s not a lot of time for sanitation drivers to spend clearing a path for their garbage trucks to get through on their collection route. Overgrown landscaping, piles of debris and parked vehicles all serve as roadblocks prohibiting drivers from getting through the alley in a timely fashion. You can do your part to help keep garbage collection crews on time by keeping the alley clear, especially on your collection days. Schedule your contracting services on non-collection days, stack debris out of the rightof-way and cut back or remove landscaping that hangs into the alley blocking the way. Having house numbers visible at the rear of your property is not only a code requirement, it also assists with sanitation collection efficiency.
Secure the Small Stuff When doing yard work gather small items you have collected, like leaves and coconuts, and throw them in your grey garbage container or bag them for collection day. By corralling and containing these small items, you are helping to prevent storm drain backups and keeping your neighborhood litter free. Do your part to Help Keep Hollywood Beautiful.

Collect tin cans and clean them . Fill each can with water, and freeze over night until solid (the ice stabilizes the can and prevents it from bending when yo u punch holes). Grab a hammer and na ils, or a drill. You can either drill the holes in to the can without a pattern, or you can pr int a pattern onto a paper that you will tape to the can and use as a guide. Remov e the ice, drop in some lighted votive ca ndles, and enjoy!

Soda Bottles and Cans Fact or Fiction Suzie Vance, Recycling Perks
FICTION: Americans don’t recycle a lot of aluminum.
FICTION: Aluminum is a major part of our solid waste stream.
FACT: Americans recycle about 120,000 aluminum cans every minute – almost 535 billion since 1972 – enough to reach to the moon and back 85 times!
FACT: All of that aluminum only makes up about 1% of the total solid waste in the United States.
FICTION: We use over 1 billion aluminum soda cans each year.
FICTION: You need to recycle a lot of aluminum cans to save energy.
FICTION: Americans use about 1,000,000 plastic bottles each day.
FACT: Recycling just ONE aluminum can saves enough energy to power a 60-watt light bulb for more than 24 hours.
FACT: We use about 2,500,000 plastic bottles EVERY SINGLE HOUR in the United States.
FICTION: Plastic is the most recycled item in the United States.
FICTION: Plastic water bottles are heavier than they used to be.
CHALLENGE YOURSELF FOR THE MONTH OF JUNE!
FACT: Aluminum beverage cans are the most recycled item in the U.S. More aluminum goes into beverage cans than any other product.
FACT: A few years ago an empty half-liter water bottle weighed 22 grams. Now, it’s 8.5. (Soda bottles are heavier so they can withstand the carbonation.)
FACT: The number is actually 80 billion aluminum soda cans each year!
6
FICTION: You can only recycle aluminum or glass 50 times before it becomes unrecyclable. FACT: There’s no limit to how many times aluminum and glass can be recycled.
Recycle all of your soda bottles and cans. If you’re not home, and don’t have access to a recycling container, take your soda packaging with you, to place them in your recycling container at home.
Please place soda bottles and cans in your collection container!
Muzart The smell of acrylic paint and crafting glue coupled with the sounds of acoustic tunes pours forth from this famous Harrison Street family favorite.

Art, music and movement is really what gives this building its pulse.

Leave the Earth the way you found it... No one wants this:
Beach Take your own water bottle. Bring your empty sunscreen bottles back home to be recycled. Take your own drinks/snacks in reusable containers. Much cheaper than disposables!
10
...Clean up your litter!
Park Don’t forget to look for small items that may have been discarded. Serve drinks/snacks/meals using everyday dinnerware/silverware. Everyone will feel pampered, and you’ll have less waste to dispose of.
Friend’s backyard Use only one of each cup/plate/flatware. Offer to help with cleanup and sorting of recyclables. Your hosts will appreciate it! Don’t forget to clean up all of the spent fireworks after a backyard fireworks display.
