Board votes to bring on Milton Gaskin to assist county trash collection; implementation plan requested
Summary
Supervisors moved to assign Milton Gaskin to assist with county trash-collection efforts; the motion carried after the chair recorded votes (three aye, two nay, one abstention) and the board directed staff to set up van/trailer logistics and a plan for regular cleanup.
Faced with increasing roadside trash, supervisors debated options including restitution-center participants and paid hires. The board considered logistics for a county van and trailer and whether inmates or restitution-center participants could be used for pickups.
After discussion the chair moved to bring Milton Gaskin into a position to assist with county trash collection. The chair called the vote and recorded three 'aye', two 'nay' and one abstention; the motion carried. The board directed staff to meet and implement the assignment, coordinate drivers and the van, and present an operational plan.
Supervisors asked that staff develop a concrete plan with deadlines and budget implications so the county can begin regular cleanup operations rather than continue ad-hoc activity.
What’s next: staff will coordinate logistics, identify a driver for the van, and return with implementation steps and costs for regular cleanup operations.
