-
- To date the PAYT
on the Go program has hosted two highly successful workshops, one in
the Front Range and one on the Western Slope. The next, expanded workshop
is planned for mid-May in the Central Mountains. The PAYT program is
currently working with Summit County, CO, Pueblo CO, Edgewater CO, Aurora,
CO and Jackson Hole WY to help implement PAYT programs.

- To learn more about
our current partners and these programs see below.
-
- Aurora
CO- Aurora is the third largest city in Colorado behind Denver
and Colorado Springs and one of the 100 largest cities in the nation.
Aurora currently has multiple unregulated haulers offering a myriad
of choices for residential collection, some with recycling, some with
multiple rates, and some with unlimited trash and no recycling. The
city is working with the SERA consultants to figure out the "next
steps" to increase diversion and waste reduction in the city, hopefully
through the implementation of a PAYT program.
Edgewater CO- Edgewater is a small community of 5,000
residents on the west side of Denver. Edgewater has municipal collection
of residential waste but no recycling collection. The city has strong
political support for PAYT and is working with the consultants to implement
a PAYT program with recycling collection for its residential accounts.
-
- Jackson
Hole, WY- Similar to Aspen, Jackson Hole is a destination resort
area that is geographically isolated. The consultants are helping the
city develop a PAYT program that will be integrated with other waste
diversion and reduction programs.
-
- Pueblo,
CO- Located in Southern Colorado, Pueblo has over 100,000 residents.
Pueblo is the latest partner in the PAYT program and the options for
PAYT and diversion are being developed.
-
- Summit
County CO- Summit County encompasses four towns and a large
unincorporated population in the resort and recreation area of Colorado's
mountains. The PAYT program being developed with the County will be
innovative in its structuring for the large multi-family population
in the County.
