Meigs County Board Delays Trash Haul Decision
At a Meigs County Board of Commissioners meeting Tuesday night no decision was reached on replacing metal trash containers with countywide hauling. A health department proposal presented by sanitarian Gary Aspin faced opposition from residents and the group seeking hauler routes. The board asked for more time to study the plan and to meet with the health department later.
