County to relocate dumpsters; commissioners raise transfer-station concerns
Summary
Administrator Karen L. Sowell said the county will move dumpsters to Buck Creek Fire Department and Babbie; commissioners noted full dumpsters at Red Oak and raised concerns Republic may be leaving garbage at the transfer station.
In staff reports Administrator Karen L. Sowell told commissioners that county dumpsters will be relocated to Buck Creek Fire Department and to Babbie at the Airport Road and Babbie Road intersection and that dumpsters may be removed earlier if they fill up before the end of the month.
During discussion, Commissioner Lynne Holmes noted full dumpsters at Red Oak and said she believed Republic (the county’s waste contractor) may be leaving garbage at the transfer station in ways that require review. Commissioners did not take an immediate action besides the operational relocation plan; staff and commissioners signaled the transfer-station issue will be monitored and addressed as needed.
