It looks like Vernon residents who don't like the new recycling program will have to put up with it for four more years.Councillor Scott Anderson says other than asking for lids on the bins, and getting Multi Material BC to clean up any garbage that blows out and is left on streets, there's not much than can be done until the contract ends in 2019. "Those might be quick fixes that we can push through, but as far as substantial changes, that's going to have to wait until 2019," Anderson tells Kiss FM.Anderson continues to maintain less is getting recycled now, than under the former blue bag system. He says his research indicates 71% of items being thrown out is plastic, paper or organic, most of which can be recycled.
