Does the WRS budget still receive property tax support?

For 2019-2022, WRS will continue to receive tax-support of approximately $20 million/year to fund community wide programs and strategic initiatives including:
  • Education and communication
  • Community Recycling Depots
  • Christmas Tree Depot Program
  • Community Clean ups
  • Household Hazardous Waste (HHW) Program

It looks like all residential pickup is entirely funded by user fees.
