Where Does It Go?Do these items go in your blue cart? Where do they go if they don’t?

Don’t put us in the blue cart. We’ve still got a lot of kick left! Please donate us.

We don’t go in your blue cart, but we are still recyclable. Take us to the Palo Alto Recycling Center and let us play a new role.

Your curbside recycling cart can take more items than ever. Even if your item doesn’t go in the blue cart, don’t despair! There are other reuse or recycling options available.

Zero Waste Palo Alto is here to help you figure out “what goes where.” Visit us online where we have a variety of information and tools to help you. Or you can call or email us, we’re glad to help!

Check out our new enewsletter, Zero Waste Palo Alto eNews, a resource for sharing information about zero waste, current events and how you can be part of the effort! Sign up for Zero Waste Palo Alto eNews at www.zerowastepaloalto.org

WELCOME TO INFO PALO ALTO

Tucked inside our 17th annual INFO Palo Alto resource guide, you’ll

find inspiration for trying something new — mountain biking? square

dancing? playing an instrument? — as well as basic facts about your

community.

At your fingertips are easily findable ways to contact government

officials, from state senators to members of the Historic Resources

Board. Or, a quick overview of what services are available for seniors,

or lists of Palo Alto child care centers.

Our “By the Numbers” section offers insights into demographics,

from ethnic breakdown to educational attainment, median age and

the price of buying a house (yes, it went up this year). We also get a

sense of where people work here, with our list of Palo Alto’s largest

employers.

There’s even a section on historic firsts, from when Stanford University

opened (1891) to when Palo Alto established its first traffic law (1905),

with the speed limit listed as “a slow trot.” Later achievements include

opening of the Opportunity Center for formerly homeless people in

2006.

In addition to the thousands of listings inside, you can visit www.

PaloAltoOnline.com (select Community Resources) and read an

expanded version. Online you’ll also find information about our

surrounding communities, including Stanford, Menlo Park, Atherton,

Portola Valley, Woodside and Mountain View, as well as others in our

region.

Our cover photo this year — a Great White Egret at the Palo Alto

Baylands Nature Preserve — was shot by Veronica Weber.

If you’ve got content suggestions for next year, please email editor@
