The Miami City Commission deferred a decision on Thursday on whether to suspend the city’s recycling program and cut the curbside collection of yard debris and bulky waste at residential properties. The issue was pushed to the February 27 commission meeting at the request of City Manager Art Noriega. The measure would give the city’s Solid Waste Department the ability to adjust the frequency of service, as needed. The intention, the city says, is to reduce bulky waste service from once a week to once every two weeks, and possibly suspend the recycling program. City residents and environmentalists have objected to the cuts.
