L.A. Recycles Together at the 2009 Sanitation Open Houses - Kids and Residents Citywide Unite to Recycle!
Hosting the 7th Annual 2009 Bureau of Sanitation Open Houses, the City of Los Angeles opens its doors at each of its six district yards in Sun Valley, Northridge, Lincoln Heights, South Los Angeles, San Pedro, and West Los Angeles in a series of weekend events.
The Sanitation Open Houses showcase the city's collection and recycling programs to improve recycling awareness and increase recycling practices. In addition, the open houses provide access and information to all city services delivered by the Bureau of Sanitation.
In 2008, more than 3,900 residents visited the open houses and more than 300 city employees volunteered their time to "give back" to the public and conduct the "free" weekend events.
