Broward County seeks public input on draft Solid Waste and Recycling Master Plan
Broward County residents and business owners will have the opportunity next month to weigh in on the region’s long-term strategy for waste management.
The Solid Waste Authority of Broward County has released a draft of its Solid Waste and Recycling Master Plan — a 40-year blueprint aimed at guiding how Broward’s 28 member cities and the county handle waste disposal, recycling, composting, and landfill management. The plan also addresses population growth, facility upgrades, and environmental and financial sustainability.
To gather community feedback, the Authority is hosting two public outreach meetings in June. Attendees will be able to ask questions, provide input, and learn more about the goals outlined in the plan. The meetings will be held:
Monday, June 16, 2025, 6:30 to 9:30 p.m. at Tree Tops Park (3900 SW 100th
Avenue, Davie, FL 33328). The meeting will take place in Oak Ridge Hall. Free parking
is available within the park at several locations. Please plan to arrive by 6:15 p.m. as the
meeting will begin promptly at 6:30 p.m.
Tuesday, June 17, 2025, 6:30 to 9:30 p.m. at Downtown Event Center (416 NE 1st
Street, Fort Lauderdale, FL 33301). Free parking is available at the Event Center for
meeting attendees. When you arrive at the Event Center, go to one of two main parking
lot entrances on the north side of NE 1st Street between North Federal Highway and NE
3rd Avenue. You do not need to do anything to validate your parking. Please plan to
arrive by 6:15 p.m. as the meeting will begin promptly at 6:30 p.m.
