B. 
Designated recyclables may include one or more of the following categories of materials:
(1) 
Glass.

Plastics.
(4) 
Other recyclable materials as designated by resolution of the Town Board.

Resolutions passed by the Town Board pursuant to Subsection A above shall set forth the effective date for mandatory separation of the designated recyclables. Publication of notice of the adoption of such resolutions in the official newspaper of the Town is required prior to the effective date.
D. 
The list of designated recyclables may be amended from time to time; however, at least once a year, at the Town Board's annual organizational meeting, the Town Board shall pass a resolution listing the designated recyclables. Said list shall be published in the town's official newspaper.
Each person using a Town recreational area shall be responsible for disposing of designated recyclables, separated from other solid waste, into the appropriate receptacles provided at the town's recreational areas.
