Pursuant to General Municipal Law § 120-aa, the New York State
Legislature has directed that each municipality in the State of New York adopt
local legislation requiring that solid waste which has been left for collection
or which is delivered by the generator of such solid waste to a solid waste
management facility shall be separated into recyclable, reusable or other
components for which economic markets for alternate uses exist. It is the
intention of the Village of Woodsburgh to conform to that requirement by the
enactment of this chapter.
