In preparation for Republic Services becoming the primary provider of residential recycling, yard trimmings, and trash, residents should now select the best cart size and service schedule for their household needs.

The project incorporates several sustainability features including energy-management controls, low-wattage LED and T8 lighting, R-30 roof insulation, low-flow plumbing fixtures, recycled pain, native drought-tolerant landscaping, and light timers and occupancy sensors.

Coroner Emma Hall said the new building will be one of the cornerstones for her vision of a progressive, forward-looking department.

“This building will serve many generations of Boulder County residents,” she said.
