Sep 3, 2025

Council and community members described a plan to use work‑release participants to staff a county litter‑cleanup crew, including a van purchased by Solid Waste and a supervisor funded in part by a grant; program leaders expect daily crews and will collect data on bags and pickup metrics.

County staff and community partners briefed the council on a planned litter‑cleanup initiative that will use work‑release participants and community‑service workers. The program will use a county‑purchased van and trailer to transport crews, and solid‑waste funds will provide a grant (discussed at roughly $90,000) to help offset supervisory pay and equipment costs.
