Key Points:
- LOS ANGELES, June 22, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Consumer Watchdog has called upon the Governor's Department of Finance to strike a $500,000 allocation in the legislative-approved budget for the San Francisco "Bottle Bank" mobile recycling program.
- Expenses for the program are $142,000 per month and the most the program has redeemed in a month is $14,000 in deposits.
- "This is why, according to Public Record Act requests, CalRecycle has refused the Bottle Bank's request for $500,000 in additional funding.
- "The SF pilot has shown itself to be a colossal financial failure and should not get a penny more in funding," said Consumer Advocate Liza Tucker.
