Environmentally Friendly Disposal Service Provides Free Mulch for Residents

Chicago - The Chicago Department of Streets and Sanitation (DSS) in partnership with the Chicago Park District, today announced that the City's annual Christmas tree recycling program will run from Saturday, January 2 through Saturday, January 16, 2016 at 24 locations citywide.

Recycling Christmas trees is an easy way for residents to make a big impact on the environment. Each year this program helps divert waste from landfills and provides residents with reusable mulch,' said Commissioner Charles L. Williams, Chicago Department of Streets and Sanitation.

Live Christmas trees can be dropped off inside tree corrals set up at any one of the 24 designated Chicago Park District locations. Ornaments, lights and tinsel must be removed before the tree is dropped off. The Christmas tree recycling program is not able to accept wreaths or garlands. Trees should be removed from any bags when placing them in the tree recycling corrals.

Free mulch will be available for residents to pick-up beginning on January 11 at six designated locations.*

Last year, the program mulched nearly 18,000 trees.

'As stewards of more than 8,300 acres of green space, the Chicago Park District is pleased to partner with the City of Chicago to offer Christmas tree recycling,' said Michael Kelly, Superintendent and CEO of the Chicago Park District.

Children’s Safety Zone Program Designed to Reduce Speeding and Improve Safety

The City today announced the 50 zones around parks and schools which will be equipped with automated speed enforcement (ASE) cameras this year, part of the Children’s Safety Zone Program to increase safety, reduce speeding and fund critical safety programs.

Revenue generated by the program will be invested in safety initiatives including afterschool programs, anti-violence and jobs programs; crossing guards and police officers around schools; and infrastructure improvements, such as signs, crosswalk markings and other traffic safety improvements.

The first speed cameras installed near Gompers Park in the Mayfair neighborhood on the North Side were activated and began to produce warnings to speeding drivers. The Chicago Department of Transportation (CDOT) had previously announced 12 of the 50 sites. Cameras already installed at McKinley, Marquette and Garfield Parks will be activated next week.

“The Children’s Safety Zone Program protects children and other pedestrians by reminding motorists to slow down and obey speed laws – particularly in school and park zones,” said CDOT Commissioner Gabe Klein.

With extensive signage on the street, a robust system to give drivers only warning tickets during the first 30-days systems are operating, in addition to one free warning the first time a motorist is eligible to receive an actual violation, CDOT expects to reduce the amount of speeding substantially. Other cities that have used automated speed enforcement have experienced dramatic reductions in the instances of speeding, up to 90 percent.

The City is installing numerous new speed-limit and “photo enforcement” signs to inform drivers as they approach the ASE cameras. Camera locations are chosen based on available data regarding traffic, speeding, and accidents, as well as the geographic requirements of the ordinance. To ensure the program will enhance safety and reduce speeding citywide, and to help ensure geographic balance, six regions have been established wherein no fewer than 10 percent of speed enforcement cameras will be located in each region.

CDOT intends to install ASE cameras in the following zones by the end of the year (addresses are those of the parks and schools, not of the specific camera locations):

Only warnings will be issued for the first 30 days after cameras are activated in a safety zone. The first time a vehicle owner is eligible to receive an enforceable violation, they will instead receive a warning. Fines for violations are $35 for vehicles travelling 6-10 miles per hour over the posted speed limit while in a safety zone, and $100 for vehicles travelling 11 or more miles over the posted speed limit.

The Children’s Safety Zones are designated as within 1/8th of a mile from Chicago parks or schools. The speed cameras are only one part of the “toolbox” of pedestrian enhancements and vehicle-speed-reduction measures that the City uses in safety zones.
