Flat Rock council delays decision on recycling as Priority Waste proposes contract extension
Summary
Priority Waste presented a proposed extension for curbside service that would keep current service at an 8–9% first-year increase and raised recycling-cost tradeoffs; council voted to table a final decision until the next meeting.
The Flat Rock City Council voted to table a decision on the city’s garbage and recycling contract after hearing a presentation from Priority Waste representatives and staff about costs, service models and contamination rates.
