Galesville IT committee to recycle cityelectronics; county commission offers free disposal
Summary
The Galesville IT Committee agreed July 22 to gather unused city electronics for recycling at the Southern Trempealeau County Solid Waste Commission and will explore hosting a free Dynamics recycling event in Galesville; the motion passed 3-0.
The Galesville IT Committee agreed July 22 to collect the city's unused electronics for recycling and to pursue options for a local free recycling event. Chair Jean Seely outlined two options: transporting items to Dynamics' free electronics recycling event in Onalaska (the next event is Aug. 2, 2025) or using the Southern Trempealeau County Solid Waste Commission, which the minutes record as having agreed not to charge the city.
The committee voted unanimously to "gather electronics no longer used by the city of Galesville to be recycled at Southern Trempealeau County Solid Waste Commission," a motion moved by Rob Grover and seconded by Dave Carlson. The motion carried 3-0. The committee also requested staff and members to investigate what would be required for Dynamics to host a free electronics recycling event in Galesville.
The action follows the committee's effort to reduce municipal electronic waste and to identify cost-free disposal options. No funding was required for the motion recorded in the minutes; follow-up work includes confirming logistics for transporting items and confirming whether Dynamics would run a program in Galesville.
