Question: What is the tonnage of glass recycled for FY2023, FY2024, and FY2025?
Response:
The City reported glass recycling tonnage of 1,094.76 tons (1,095) for CY2023 and 1,059.36 tons (1,060) for CY2024. CY2025 data are not yet available, as recycling figures are still being compiled and will be finalized in May 2026 as part of the City’s annual reporting cycle.
Alexandria reports annual tonnage for the preceding calendar year, and hauler reporting requirements likewise reference tonnage collected during that same period. For context, the CY2022 total was 1,197.85 tons (1,198).
The budget book entry listing 109,500 for CY2023 is a typographical error; the correct rounded figure is 1,095 tons. The glass recycling Key Performance Indicator (KPI) is tracked and reported on a calendar-year basis, not a fiscal-year basis.
