AI Summary

This bill aims to encourage municipal recycling and composting programs in Massachusetts. It amends existing state law to require all cities, towns, and districts to establish recycling programs that mandate the separation of recyclables, including paper, glass, metal, rubber, plastics, used tires, and compostable waste, from solid waste by residents, schools, and businesses. The bill also requires apartment buildings with three or more units and condominium associations with three or more units to provide the necessary means and materials for tenants or owners to participate in the local recycling program.
