Grant County Explores New Recycling Agreement Amid Budget and Operational Discussions
- Meeting Overview:
Overview: During the recent Grant County Board of Commissioners meeting, attention was directed towards a proposed recycling agreement with Pope Douglas, aimed at improving operational efficiency and cost management. The board discussed a one-year deal with Pope Douglas, which would charge $58 per ton for recyclables, bypassing the need to first send materials to Morris. This new arrangement is expected to save the county approximately $12,000 annually by eliminating the need for Stevens County as a drop site, and an additional $3,000 based on tonnage savings.
