Cincinnati Mayor Mark Mallory is issuing an eco-friendly challenge to the city.
The mayor wants more Cincinnati residents to recycle – and he's willing to pay for it.
So, the mayor, Rumpke and Keep Cincinnati Beautiful have teamed up for an interesting challenge.
About 40% of Queen City residents recycle, and the mayor wants to get the number up to 15% or more.
The mayor announced that neighborhoods that reach that goal will receive $250.
And he says the neighborhood who recycles the most will win a prize of $1,000.
The contest will run from May 15 through November 15.
