As soon as the South Jordan School District comes back from the Fall break in Jan 2009, the South Jordan School District will work on getting all the recycling bins back to all the Schools in South Jordan. In August 2007 the City of South Jordan code enforcement told the South Jordan School District that the recycling bins needed to be removed if the Schools District were not able to have fencing or an enclosures put up around the recycling bins. The School District was unable to taking what little budget it had away from the children’s educational needs to build these enclosures being requested so almost all the recycling bins were taken from the South Jordan Schools at that time.

   I have been trying to find a resolution to fix this situation for a month or two and was actually working on getting a waiver or variance to the code for the South Jordan School District. However last week a friend of mine who happens to be an Attorney for the City of South Jordan was able to dig up some information on the State Code of Municipality 10-9A-305 sub 4a, which exempts the all public Schools from the code enclosure requirement.

Anyways thanks to everyone who gave their support in helping me and my efforts to get the South Jordan School District Recycling Program back to our Schools!

And a BIG thank you to Mr. Aaron Osmond and Kennecott Land for dontating the funds to pay for the recycling bin at Daybreak Elementary for the 2009-2010 school year!
