Sergio and I attended the Mission Village HOA board meeting last Wednesday, armed with tons of good ideas about how to convince the board that composting sliced bread (and other food waste) is the best idea since...sliced bread. Weak joke!
The board members were surprisingly enthusiastic, with very little convincing needed. This isn't to say the new compost program will be rolling out next week; however, the board did give us permission to have a representative from the local hauler come and assess our common areas to look for the best spots throughout the association to pilot the compost program.
I think that finding the spots for the composting bins or carts (depending on what makes the most sense logistically) won't be the hard part of this process. I think educating the residents will definitely be the biggest challenge, as well as the key component to both the board and the city deciding whether or not we can sustain a composting program. This could get messy.
