Top issues during term (7)(Environment)
Flood debris cleanup agreement
Damage costs are still being assessed; state and federal funds don't cover private roads.
Landfill capacity and transfer station planning
The $195,000 design contract slightly exceeds the $180,000 budgeted, and a revenue bond will fund construction.
County Lawsuit Over Battery Storage and Solar Project
Leaf and brush pickup fee proposal
A $10 fee would have cost most households about $120 a year; both proposals were rejected, so no new charge.
First Annual Bulk Waste Pickup
The program isn't expected to make money — it's a service and cleanup effort, offset partly by recycled metal revenue.
Dark skies enforcement
Erosion along South Town Creek areas
Unknown — a grant is being pursued, but no fix is imminent.
