The proposed budget for 2020 paints a grim picture of the market for plastics, despite a 10% increase in Peoria residents using curbside recycling. Multi-national corporations, such as Unilever, Coca-Cola, and Pepsi, are trying to get to 100% recycled materials for their products within the next 5-10 years. So, there is a market for recycled plastic, but a lack of businesses processing recycled plastics. The City should work on trying to find an investor who wants to build such a facility here in Peoria.
