Dillon County to use remaining GO Bond funds for storage, fencing and animal shelter shelter
Summary
County Administrator Tim Harper reported the landfill transfer station opened earlier than expected; the council approved using remaining GO Bond funds to build a 24x25-foot storage building, add fencing around the landfill and provide an open shelter adjacent to the animal shelter for kennels.
County Administrator Tim Harper updated the Dillon County Council on the status of GO bond projects at the June 25 meeting, saying the transfer station funded by the bond opened well ahead of schedule.
Harper said the transfer station, which had been expected to take about six weeks to become operational, began receiving solid waste after roughly three and a half weeks. He noted remaining items in the budget request included fencing around the landfill and a shelter and storage area next to the transfer station.
Councilman Stevie Grice moved to direct the remaining GO Bond funds to construct a 24 x 25-foot storage building, install fencing around the landfill and build an open shelter near the animal shelter for kennels; Kenny Cook Jr. seconded and the motion passed unanimously. The council record does not break out the dollar amounts remaining from the bond; administration staff will need to identify exact figures and contracting steps to implement the work.
