County Officials Urged to Create Sanitary Landfills
A county meeting before the Board of County Commissioners heard a delegation from clubs and organizations urging action to establish sanitary landfills. First year costs were estimated at 60 000 to 70 000 dollars, funded by a three to four cent tax increase per penny of revenue. Delegates proposed multiple landfills or a centralized large landfill with weekly refuse collection, noting population growth will intensify the problem.
