The Aiken City Council unanimously approved a 1991 budget of 17.96 million with an 11.8 percent expenditure increase.

A pilot recycling program will shift trash collection to weekly for residents, saving about 22.80 annually, with potential twice weekly service costing more. A test starting June 4 will guide whether backyard service stays single or doubles.

The measure creates districts sites and structures and appoints a preservation commission within 30 days to oversee its implementation set to take effect July 4 despite minor opposition from James Ward who warned it shifts control from homeowners to the commission. Greg Smith praised the extra protection noting cities lose heritage when rushing to the future.
