Canaryville adopts county rules for illegal dumping, orders new transfer-station signage
Summary
Following repeated instances of illegal dumping at the town transfer station, the board voted to adopt Iron County rules and fines for enforcement and to order new signage noting camera surveillance and potential fines.
Board members raised recurring illegal dumping at the town transfer station and noted cameras capture vehicles and license plates. Staff said the existing signage is outdated and recommended replacing it with clear notices explaining that illegal dumping is monitored and that enforcement will follow county procedures.
Heidi and other board members discussed coordination with Iron County and the sheriff's office for enforcement; Bruce Anderson (identified in the discussion as the county's solid-waste official) was mentioned as the county contact who assists with identifying dumpers. The board voted to adopt the county rules for illegal dumping and directed staff to order updated signage that warns people they are on camera and that county fines and enforcement will be used.
Board members said they will coordinate with the sheriff's office and the county landfill if incidents are identified and that updated signs should make enforcement more effective.
