Estimated Program 3 Staff Impact <br />The estimated staff impacts would be medium. Staff would be required to work with Boulder County <br />PACE to develop the program and materials, provide support to the business(es) and facilitate <br />conversations with their waste hauling company to decipher the proper bin size and service schedule, <br />coordinate invoicing with PACE and haulers, and and track and report program data. <br />Estimated Program 3 Waste Reduction Impact <br />The estimated waste reduction impact is high. Businesses that are able to start and sustain commercial <br />recycling programs will continue to divert paper, aluminum and plastics from the landfill even after the <br />initial $1,150 stipend has been utilized, increasing the commercial diversion rate from the current rate <br />of 24%. <br />Program 3 Overall Recommendation <br />Program 3 is a good option for businesses that would benefit from an additional stipend to start a <br />commercial recycling program. With the increasing costs of recycling on the Front Range, the business <br />would need to formulate a plan to cover costs associated with long-term recycling, but this program <br />would supplement costs for approximately six months. <br />Program 4: Reusable Takeout Restaurant Pilot <br />DeliverZero is a company that provides reusable takeout programming to Denver and Boulder <br />restaurants and residents. The company is interested in expanding to the City of Louisville with a pilot of <br />8-12 Louisville restaurants participating. DeliverZero is integrated into the restaurant's POS system — <br />when customers place an order, they select DeliverZero as an "add on" menu item and the restaurant <br />staff packs the order into reusable containers. The resident picks up the order (or it is delivered by Door <br />Dash, etc.) and the resident schedules a pickup time for DeliverZero to pick up the containers, <br />clean/sanitize them, and return them to participating restaurants. <br />Business sectors this may impact: Food <br />DeliverZero reusable containers pictured below — <br />deli <br />deliverzero <br />Estimated Program 4 Costs <br />The City of Louisville will provide a subsidy for the first 6 months of participation in this program, up to <br />$1,000 per business. Initial costs include: restaurant recruitment, container purchasing, stocking and <br />cleaning, and customer subsidy.
