In November and December of 2015 the Town of Okotoks made a presentation to other members of the Foothills Regional Services Commission. 

Okotoks Operations Manager Dave Robertson says the presentation was asking for support on adding a Municipal Recycling Facility to the region. 

"The Town was looking for support for the possibility of a sub-regional Municipal Recycling Facility located at the landfill site," Robertson says.

The Town of Okotoks, along with Black Diamond and Turner Valley, currently have municipal recycling facilities.

"We are in expansion mode of the Operations Centre in Okotoks and are looking at relocating our facilities."

The business study will look at the possibility of relocating all the facilities to the same place. 

"The study will look at the cost of the facility, and the potential of pooling all of our resources together, that will come up with a business plan," Robertson says.

The business plan is projected to be done by the time 2017 budget talks come around.
