Todd County residents who have signed up for residential trash collection with Waste Industries will soon be receiving their herby curbies and routes will begin next week.
During the final meeting of July for Todd Fiscal Court, Judge-Executive Todd Mansfield says those curbside trashcans will be delivered in the next few days.
Waste Industries is also taking over commercial dumpster service in north Todd after Queen City Disposal abandoned those customers after only a couple weeks in most cases.
Meanwhile, County Attorney Mac Johns says call his office to set up a payment plan if you still haven’t paid your property tax bill. If you don’t by the end of next week, a third-party collector will be buying the balance and will tack on additional fees.
Magistrates approved $8,000 to go to constructing a fence on the old Elkton Die Cast property that will separate the building from five acres of land that will be used for a walking trail and soccer fields. Judge Mansfield says the city hopes to get the building in condition to be available to meet the needs of an industry and local soccer teams already utilize the open grassland to practice.
Fiscal court approved an ordinance reducing the speed limit on Frank Wells Road and McPherson Cemetery Road to 35 mph.
