Does recycling have impact on utility rate hikes?
How much impact does the lack of Fresno's recycling have, if any, on the proposed rate hikes?Mike Kobata
Although recycling has no direct impact on utility rates, we do face $10,000 a day in fines if we do not meet our state-mandated recycling levels. I believe, as a community, we should do everything we can to be a leader in recycling. It makes good sense environmentally and we sure can't afford $10,000 a day in fines.

I would think that recycling would reduce collection fees. What happens to the cans, plastics, bottles and etc. that we put out every week?
