Getting people to throw trash into trash containers and recyclables into recycling containers is not as easy as it might seem.
Village Council spent about a half hour at its June 29 special meeting coming up with some parameters for a downtown recycling program.
Among the challenges council faces: Ensuring trash and recyclables go into the proper containers and placing the receptacles in easy-to-find areas.
An initial proposal from village staff for a station with four holes, for plastic bottles, glass bottles, paper and trash, was rejected.
Councilwoman Michelle Lerner said such a station would be bulky. Other council members said not all the materials are generated in the downtown area.
Instead, the council asked village staff to draft a plan that implements the use of smaller receptacles, each of which handle a specific item. The receptacles then could be placed outside venues generating the designated item.

They said the receptacles should be targeted to those establishments.
