Recycling Partnership With Benning Could Bring City $230,000
Thursday, May 1st, 2014
A proposed "public-public partnership" between Columbus and Fort Benning could produce about $230,000 in revenue for the city's Recycling and Sustainability Center, Deputy City Manager David Arrington told Columbus Councilors today.
A section of the 2013 National Defense Authorization Act allows military installations to enter into partnerships with neighboring governments in a number of different functions, one of which is recycling. When that became law, it created an opportunity for both the city and the post to take advantage of, Arrington said.
