The Yard Waste Center staff explored pathways to enable viable food waste processing beginning in FY26 by initiating a six-month Food Waste Processing Pilot Program timeline. \nOn January 5\, 2026\, SWS launched a soft opening of the Food Waste Processing Pilot Program. A third-party vendor delivered 3 batches of food waste to the Yard Waste Center. The food waste was mixed with organic matter\, piled on pad\, and capped in mulch with temperature probes to monitor the progress. The pilot tested the addition of post-consumer food waste under North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality (NCDEQ) oversight\, to evaluate operational integration. Staff has prepared the results of the Organic Food Composting Pilot for presentation to Council. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nB.2\n\n2022 Parks Bond Update\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nShawsheen Baker\, Parks Recreation and Cultural Resources\nKelly Ham\, Engineering ServicesDuring the work session staff will provide a status update on the 2022 Parks Bond projects.
