Re: Bringing in Waste Bins
2011-12-12 20:18:13 UTC
Off the cuff thoughts...you could create a "roll in your bin and win" contest and take note of all those participating.. than for those who roll in their bins have them place a sign in the alley indicating that they are "winners" or create some other cheeky campaign solans... AND incorporate this with a marketing campaign that illustrates the losses that can occur as a result of residents inaction to bring the bins fires, delayed emergency services, buglars, etc
You could also consider creating a local bylaw that enforces a fine to residences who do not bring the bins in using all reason you stated, most notably due to vandalism and the inability for emergency services to get down alley ways (this approach assumes you have a way of determining which bin belongs to which residences)...
All best - hope you'll post the outcomes? :)

Re: Vehicle Idling Awareness Efforts

Hello,
I have received several emails interested in seeing the report from Idle Free BC (2008), so to make it easier for everyone I have attached it here. I also attached a Anti-Idling Capaign guide for Municipalities that may be useful. (Moderator's Note: To access these reports from the digest, click on the "View Full Thread" link)
All the best!

Some really great resources on Anti-idling campaigns/bylaws/messaging/etc can be found at www.idlefreebc.ca
Additionally, I worked as an Anti-Idling ambassador for the British Columbian provincial gov't (summer 2008) and I'm more than happy to share the final report of my findings/challenges/successes/etc.
Contact me at [email protected] if you're interested :)
