Subcommittee Chosen To Study Rural Solid Waste Containers
A two member subcommittee Roy Weise and Willard Peterson was appointed Friday to study using rural solid waste containers near central pickup points as part of Bonner County and City County disposal plans. The Forest Service study suggests several central landfill sites with a favored Dufort Road option and summer only alternatives. County officials led by Jim Brockway emphasized selecting sites first, while Sandpoint notes its waste volume must influence site choice. County cities Hope Clark Fork and Coolin face state closure notices for open dumps. The next joint meeting is April 26 at 9 30 a m at the County Courthouse.
