Unalaska, AK – The Unalaska City Council will address the community's need for recycling and public restrooms at its meeting tonight at City Hall.

The Qawalangin Tribe is scheduled to present its business plan for a recycling program for Unalaska. The tribe offered a proposal at the October 10 meeting for a program that would recycle aluminum and fiber products. Tribal administrator Sharon Svarny-Livingston said the program would cost the city about $158,000 in its first year. A more detailed financial plan will be presented tonight.

The council will consider a budget amendment to finance the recycling program, as well as to finance the construction of public restrooms for Unalaska's small boat harbor. A majority of the council voted in the October 10 meeting to consider construction of a floating bathroom and shower facility.

The council will also look at landfill issues, and revisit its report on how the city's salary and benefits packages compare to those offered by other communities, in an effort to understand why Unalaska has had trouble filling its city director positions.

The meeting will be at City Hall at 7 p.m. tonight.
