| Look for a Zero Waste
Station at this year’s AltBuild event
 This year’s
AltBuild event will showcase a range of environmentally sustainable building
materials, but what happens to these materials at the end of their lives?
Sadly, the millions of tons of valuable materials that we discard into our
landfills are contributing to global climate change. One way to ensure the
lifecycle of a product is extended beyond its initial application is to design
it so that it can easily be recycled or reused. One of the goals of Zero
Waste is to minimize or eliminate the disposal of all materials into
landfills. This year’s AltBuild event will attempt to do just that
by capturing as many valuable materials as possible through Zero Waste
Stations. With the help of high school volunteers, the City of Santa
Monica, and the vendors, attendees will have convenient access to recycling and
composting bins situated through–out the event. |

VALET SYSTEM
FREE BICYCLE PARKING
VALET SYSTEM
The City of Santa Monica's Transportation Management Division/Office has
implemented a FREE bicycle parking valet system at the Sunday Main Street
Farmers' Market and the Thursday night Twilight Dance Series on the Pier.
Implemented on July 10th,, 2006, the highly successful valet service has since
handled over 14,000 at the market and 4,100 at the Pier.
The resulted benefits from the service
includes less traffic congestion, less congested and safer sidewalk walking
conditions, better air quality, more convenience and quality family/friends
outings. Users believe this to be one of the City's best programs. Families love
it. Tourists/residents of others city's praise it and express their
jealousy.
