Increase number of trash and recycling receptacles in pedestrian corridors/Transit Priority Areas

(Full action name in the CAP)

Citywide Street Litter Program is currently using 500 sensors in public trash containers throughout the city to assist our Collections division in creating greater efficiency in frequency of collection. We are also beginning a pilot program called “CANtainers,” using new paired recycling and litter touchless containers which are currently being prepared for wrapping with printed educational designs and will be installed in early 2025. CalRecycle Beverage Container Recycling City/County Payment Program Grant funding will continue to be used for a portion of future CANtainers in FY26 and possibly beyond.
