County seeks detailed ledger on landfill returns as closure liabilities loom

During the non‑departmental review commissioners requested a detailed accounting of landfill revenues and expenses before approving transfers. OFM reported the county receives approximately $8.3 million in rent payments from the landfill, that debt service tied to landfill operations is about $2.3 million and labor costs are near $2 million. OFM also said the county is setting aside roughly $10 million per year toward closure and post‑closure liabilities, a long‑term estimate spread over decades.
