The City of Salina has postponed a consideration to partner with a non profit recycling business.

<a href="https://www.reuseitsalina.org/">ReUseIt Salina</a>&nbsp;has leased out a building on North Ohio and plans to sell items online and accept donations such as home remodeling materials and&nbsp;hardware in effort to reduce landfill.

The City Commission is reviewing and has postponed a decision on providing funding to the building.&nbsp;The request is for the funding to come from the City's Solid Waste Fund, which currently has a balance of $6,631,213.08. 

ReUse It anticipates diverting multiple tons from the landfill by accepting these donations and then reselling them.

City Commissioners will discuss this topic at a later study session.
