ReCommunity Holdings, II was awarded a contract with the City on July 22, 2016 to be the City’s processor for single-stream recyclables collected by the City. The contract terms and conditions require City approval for a change of name (novation). ReCommunity made formal notice of acquisition by Republic Services on August 24, 2017, a process that was recently completed. City services have not been affected or disrupted by the acquisition.
