County approves $24,000 composting contract; resident asks if township facility could reduce costs
Summary
The Solid Waste District awarded a $24,000 contract to C&S Tree Service and Recycling Center for composting services; a resident asked whether Springfield Township’s facility could be used instead to reduce county expense. Commissioners said they would investigate legal issues.
The Board authorized a one‑year contract (with options) with C&S Tree Service and Recycling Center for $24,000 to provide composting services for brush and yard debris to residents and political subdivisions of the Clark County Solid Waste District (Resolution 2026-0475).
During audience comments, resident Terry Adkins asked whether Springfield Township’s existing facility could handle the same work to avoid paying the contractor; Commissioner Sasha L. Rittenhouse said she was not sure of the legalities and suggested staff look into it. The resolution authorizes the County Administrator to execute the contract and related purchase orders; it runs July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027 with options for two additional 12‑month terms.
The transcript does not record a legal analysis or cost-comparison at the meeting; staff will need to review intergovernmental procurement rules and Solid Waste District policies if they pursue the township alternative.
