Dump Fees Enacted for The Town Council

The town council approved the enactment of dump fees to fund disposal of waste including tires at the town dump. The ordinance, set at $25 per ton for commercial industries, will go to the ordinance committee and toward the Clean Playground program. The plan includes hearings and ongoing efforts to keep beaches and playgrounds free of litter, with community groups invited to participate in cleanup efforts and education campaigns.
