As the Green Cart program rolls out this year, you’ll see how a small change to your routine can cut your garbage in half and turn your food and yard material into valuable nutrient-rich compost. Here’s what homeowners can expect from the program.

You’ll receive everything you need to get started

When your green cart arrives look inside to find:• Kitchen pail and samples of compostable bags to collect food scraps • Samples of paper yard waste bags to use when your cart is full • Instruction guide• Collection schedule

You’ll be amazed at how much can go in All food and yard waste can go in the green cart. You can even put in things that you can’t compost at home like meat, bones, cheese, bread, pasta, branches and pet waste too. These materials can be safely composted because the material reaches and maintains a temperature of at least 55 degrees Celsius during the composting process, which kills any harmful bacteria.

Green carts will be rolled out by quadrant Once everyone in your quadrant receives their carts, weekly green cart pick up will begin and garbage collection will move to once every two weeks.Once the community rollout schedule is finalized it will be available on calgary.ca/greencart.

live in an apartment or condo?By Nov. 1, 2017 your building is required to separate food and yard waste from the garbage for composting or diversion. Talk to your building owner or manager or visit calgary.ca/multifamily.

Blue Cart recycling tip of the month

City of Calgary Information/Updates

say no to stringy Things!Hoses, electrical cords and rope, oh my! Because they get caught in the machines at the recycling facility, keep stringy things out of your blue cart.

If it dangles, it will cause a tangle! Please do not put these items in your blue cart.• No garden hoses • No rope, string or yarn• No electrical cords, cables or wire• No Christmas tree lights

What should I do with these items instead?• If the item is still usable, consider donating to charity, giving to family or friends or

posting on an online bartering site like Kijiji.• If the item is broken, it should go in your black cart as garbage.• Still not sure what to do with your stringy item?

Your May safety tip from your Calgary fire Department:Today’s potting soils contain large volumes of peat moss. When peat moss gets too dry, it becomes highly flammable. On top of that, you’ll often find shredded wood, bark, Styrofoam and vermiculite in potting mix. like peat moss, all of these ingredients ignite easily under dry conditions.

Over the past number of years we have received numerous 911 calls from citizens who, while walking their dog late at night, see the outside of a home on fire. These fires are typically attributed a cigarette before they go to bed. After finishing the cigarette, it is put out in the porch plant pot...because “that is where I’ve always put it out and there has never been a problem” then as they sleep the still burning cigarette lights the dry peat moss on fire, and voila! After a period of time, the outside of the house is on fire while the residents sleep inside!

a few simple precautions will help to keep your home safe:

• Make sure the soil around your potted plants stays moist. Keep in mind that the soil in pots dries out more quickly than soil in garden beds, so plan on more frequent watering.

• While regular garden soil may extinguish a cigarette, the same isn’t true for potting soil. Make sure smokers have a safe place to dispose of their butts, indoors and outdoors, so they aren’t tempted to use your pot of geraniums instead.

• Keep potting soil away from combustible materials. Keep potting soil and potted plants away from things that ignite and burn easily, such as firewood, stacks of old newspapers, aerosols, paint solvents, gasoline and cleaning products.

DID YOu KnOW?

The MalTese CROss had its beginning during the Crusades, and its shape adopted to the shields of the knights of Malta who were also known to wear red capes. When assisting armies who had been doused with Naptha and lit on fire, the knights would pull off their red capes and put the flames out. It has since been adopted as a symbol of fire departments.

Mother’s Day, May 14, 2017 - Mother’s Day is a celebration honoring mothers, as well as motherhood, maternal bonds, and the influence of mothers in society. It is celebrated on various days in many parts of the world, most commonly in the months of March or May. The modern holiday of Mother’s Day was first celebrated in 1908, when Anna Jarvis held a memorial for her mother at St Andrew’s Methodist Church in Grafton, West Virginia. Around the world, 46 countries celebrate Mother’s day.

Victoria Day, May 22, 2017 - The birthday of Queen Victoria was a day for celebration in Canada long before Confederation, with the first legislation regarding the event being passed in 1845 by the parliament of the Province of Canada to officially recognize May 24 as the Queen’s birthday. Following the death of Queen Victoria in 1901, May 24 was made by law to be known as Victoria Day, a date to remember the “Mother of Confederation”, and, in 1904, the same date was by imperial decree made Empire Day throughout the British Empire. Since then, Victoria Day has been celebrated on the Monday preceding May 25th, and is a federal holiday in Canada.

update on Castle Park - Highway paving and new water pipelines are part of nearly $20 million in infrastructure investment for the Castle Provincial Park and neighbouring communities. Six million dollars will go towards paving an 11-kilometre gravel section of Highway 774 within the newly established park. Another $9 million is earmarked to help the Municipal District of Pincher Creek construct a water line that ties Castle Mountain Resort to the Hamlet of Beaver Mines. The water line will also serve the Castle Provincial Park.

nDP Bill 1- Governments bill one is a promise to reduce school fees by 25% for families this September. Again, this sounds good on the surface and I and my colleagues will vote for it as it looks like a saving for families. The first problem here is that the government promised a 100% reduction in fees which commits the NDP to breaking a promise with a piece of legislation that they have introduced. The next issue is that school boards have no idea where the $50 million will come from to replace what was collected in fees. They are left to scramble or make cuts in other areas to compensate.

nDP Blood services Bill - The NDP have passed a bill to make it illegal to be paid to give blood in Alberta. They are promoting it as a way to keep the blood supply safe and to prevent “private health care.” Nothing could be further from the truth. The fact is a high percentage of blood plasma used in Alberta for years has come from the United States – provided by paid blood donors. In other words, your government for some reason is happy to pay for blood as long as it is not yours. How is that safer? Is Alberta blood somehow dirtier? Of course not! This only prevents new jobs in the blood business from coming to Alberta. Keeping jobs out is an NDP tradition but not a good one.

Here is the unfortunate truth. Canadian Blood services is a good organization. They bargain collectively with a union important to the Premier. Now we have legislation to protect that and to lock out competition who might not have the same union.

Welcome to Jason Kenney, Our new party leader - On March 18, over 75% of PC delegates voted for Jason Kenney as our new PC leader. I am honoured to serve under Jason’s leadership and look forward to making him Premier in 2019 – hopefully with your help.

The idea is to meet your neighbours, make new friends, have fun and maybe work together on a project that benefits the entire community.

Make saturday, June 17 the day you get to know your neighbours!

2017 is a big year for our city. It also happens to be an election year as Calgarians head to the polls on October 16. Council has been having discussions on important topics like a new arena, a possible Olympic bid and the Green line lRT. If you’re interested in seeing what I have to say about these issues check out my website shanekeating.ca or give my office a call.

Council Gets Closer to finalizing Green line

We are approaching the end of a chapter for the Green line lRT. Over the course of the next few months Council will have some big decisions so that we can present a finished plan to the provincial government. I remain hopeful that once the province sees the final plan they will commit funding to the project. We will have to agree on a phasing plan to identify how much of the line can be built for the budget we have. We will also have to confirm the station locations and alignment for the entire network.

We have come a long ways in a short period of time, but we still have a bit further to go. You can stay up to date on the Green line by visiting calgary.ca/greenline

Habitat projects on the Bow river

The 2013 floods changed a lot of things in our city. Following the 2013 flood The City took forward a number of projects to repair and reinforce banks along the Bow River. These projects helped protect our city, but in some cases they had negative impacts on sensitive fish habitat.

The City has identified a number of sites to supplement lost habitat from flood mitigation projects. One of these sites was a side channel adjacent to Quarry Park. The construction of this project has been underway for a few weeks now and is scheduled to wrap up in the fall. In order to complete this work there will be a temporary detour on the Bow River Pathway. You can find out more information on this project by visiting www.shanekeating.ca/2017/03/30/qp-river/

Ward 12 residential traffic safety town Hall

Calgary Police Service (CPS) and City of Calgary Transportation have been working together to find ways to address residential traffic safety issues within our communities. As a result of a Notice of Motion I brought to Council last year, each Ward in the city will have a Residential Traffic Safety Town Hall. Residents are encouraged to come to these meetings and share their feedback with CPS and City Transportation folks. CPS will be able to identify some specific problem areas in your community that may need more enforcement and Transportation can identify if there are traffic flow or engineering issues that could be addressed.
