Commissioners agreed to a three-month pilot bulk-items collection program every third Saturday from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., removing a reference to "Landlords" and requiring citizens to unload their vehicles; County Manager Shubert estimated operating costs at $1,500–$2,500 per month for dumpsters plus staffing and possible security.

County Manager James Shubert presented a sample sign and sought direction for a proposed bulk-items collection program. Commissioners decided to run a three-month pilot, holding the collection site every third Saturday from 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., and revised the posted rules by deleting the word "Landlords" and amending text regarding citizens unloading their vehicles or trailers.
