Meadow Town presses county for cleanup support, plans roll-off dumpster and asks sheriff for speed enforcement

Town leadership said they have asked county officials for more transfer-station amenities and arranged a possible county-provided roll-off dumpster for seasonal cleanups.

The Chair told the council they had spoken with County Commissioner Bill Wright, who suggested the county could provide a roll-off dumpster for a limited period (for example, two weeks) that Meadow Town could use for a spring or fall cleanup. The Chair said the county did not indicate an extra cost and offered to help place and remove the container; the Chair offered to coordinate the effort through Commissioner Woodland.

Council members discussed possible placement (corner lot, behind town hall, near the fire station) and operational details, noting the value of putting the container where pickup access is easiest and raising concerns that out-of-town users might dump material improperly. The Chair said the town could post open/close dates at the post office and on social media to reduce misuse.

Separately, the Chair reported having discussed speeding complaints with Sheriff Jacobson; deputies have been observed in the area and the sheriff promised to deploy a portable speed sign. The Chair said they would continue to request additional speed patrols at the affected intersection.

The town did not record a formal agreement in the transcript; the exchanges describe offers and coordination steps and ask staff to follow up with county contacts and to publicize any cleanup dates.
