Brunswick seeks exemption from Medina County waste flow control
Brunswick moves to exit Medina County solid waste flow control under the district plan. Vice Mayor Nick Hanek says removal could cut costs for residents by about three dollars monthly. The Brunswick City Council authorized filing a waiver at the July 14 meeting, with potential veto power over the plan if flow control remained. Medina commissioners and a technical advisory committee will revisit options at a later policy committee session.
