As many of you know, the recycle bins have been removed from the trash area.  This was done because of health and safety concerns and potential issues with the Health Department.  There has been a continuous problem with some people putting regular trash, particularly food, in the recycle bins.  In addition, both the smell and maggots were becoming an issue.  As a result, the bins were removed.

Consequently, many complaints were received from owners who felt the lack of a recycling option was unacceptable.  Many people recycle, often stating they recycle twice as much as the throw away in trash. We want to do what is best for our community and environment so the RECYCLE RULES MUST BE FOLLOWED.  If you are unable to abide by the recycling rules, please do not use the recycle bins in lieu of the dumpster for your trash.

Community living presents its share of challenges and thus requires everyone to be respectful of our common property and considerate of their neighbors.  Our intent is to return the recycle bins to the trash area for use and we strongly encourage people to abide by Brevard County's recycling rules or simply do not use the bins.  If people do not abide by the rules, we will have no option except to remove them again. Although your participation is optional, everyone’s cooperation is crucial.  

After researching the County website regarding recycling, some education and further guidance is in order for everyone.  Attached to this letter is information on what can be recycled and what cannot.  This information will also be prominently posted in the recycle area.

As always, it is the unit owner’s responsibility to make sure that all visitors and renters are informed and follow the rules.  This is a very important matter to many owners, so please allow those who wish to recycle to be able to take advantage of this service on our property.  We thank you in advance for your help with this worth while endeavor.
