Council approves $5,000 for Crawford County recycling service through 2026
Summary
Lawrenceville approved a $5,000 payment to Crawford County Recycling to maintain recycling wagons at Wishnick Park through 2026 after countywide service returned the wagons to the city.
Council discussed that recycling wagons had returned to Wishnick Park from Crawford County Recycling, which serves multiple counties. Council members said rising wages and lower profits prompted prior appropriations from Lawrence and Crawford counties. Ald. Brewer moved that the City spend $5,000 on the recycling service through 2026; Ald. Goins seconded and the motion passed on a roll call vote of 6-0-2.
No contract text or long-term commitment was recorded in the minutes; the action was presented as an appropriation to fund continuing service into 2026.
