BoardWhitley County Solid Waste Board Board Meeting
The Board discussed vendor payments and the status of 2025 and 2026 grant funding, noting almost all 2025 funds were utilized. A primary focus was the discussion on increasing collection charges per parcel by 50 cents to address rising operational costs like postage and labor, though the Board ultimately decided to table this item for further investigation into whether the district can handle its own billing. The Board also addressed truck damage, discussing whether to seek compensation or negotiate a free pickup service with the involved contractor, ultimately proposing the creation of a formal Memorandum of Understanding.
