Union County approves $2,000 match for Cove Spring Clean Up Day

Union County Board of Commissioners · May 6, 2026

Summary

The Board unanimously authorized up to $2,000 in matching funds from the Union County Solid Waste District to support Cove's Spring Clean Up Day on May 16, 2026, citing community partnership benefits.

The Union County Board of Commissioners voted unanimously May 6 to approve up to $2,000 in matching funds to support the City of Cove's Spring Clean Up Day scheduled for May 16. Cove City Recorder Lana Shira said the town has historically received Solid Waste District funding and that the match helps the event get started for the following year.

Commissioner Jake Seavert moved to approve the request and Commissioner Paul Anderes seconded. Commissioner Seavert said it is "great that the county can have these partnerships with the communities for these types of events," adding the funding supports keeping communities clean and inviting. The motion carried unanimously; county staff clarified the funds come from the Union County Solid Waste District.

Why it matters: Small matching grants help local jurisdictions run community cleanup efforts and leverage Solid Waste District resources to increase participation and waste-diversion outcomes.
