Minnesota SF1228 repeals the requirement for residents who do not recycle to pay for recycling services.

Minnesota SF1228 repeals the requirement for residents who do not recycle to pay for recycling services. The bill amends Minnesota Statutes 2024, section 115A.93, subdivision 3, to remove the mandate that residents who do not recycle must pay for recycling services. The bill also allows the commissioner to exempt a licensing authority from the requirements if the county has an approved solid waste management plan that concludes variable rate pricing is not appropriate. This change affects recycling programs and the pricing structure for waste collection services in Minnesota.
