LETTERS: Explanation
To the Editor:
I would like to explain and clarify some of the statements in the article about recycling in last week's paper. The quote attributed to me about not being sure if curbside recycling is the way to go: I meant and said that it is not the first step to take in the process — from zero to 100 all at once. After my first opportunity to make comments, the discussion was ended by the commission chairman. I wanted to go on to say that a number of us in my area have signed on with Stutzman for curbside recycling. But for the majority of county residents, there are no recycling programs available.
I am sorry that two of our county commissioners have shut the door to apply for grant monies to buy equipment and make a start toward a countywide recycling program this year.
