Randy Likens, presenting the Solid Waste Report, reviewed monthly collection and revenue figures and the board approved the report by voice vote.
Likens guided members through the packet and singled out recent volumes and receipts. He reported a recycling intake of 74 tons with associated revenue of $3,596. The board also discussed transfer-station activity and tipping fees, with one item noted as 215 tons and tipping fees of $42,005.41 for the period reported. Staff said recent monthly numbers were "pretty close" to January figures from the prior reporting period.
The board moved to accept the report; the motion was seconded and approved by voice vote with members responding 'Aye.' The meeting did not record a roll-call tally for the vote.
The presentation also noted operational matters: staff flagged 27 junk tires that need disposal and mentioned ongoing review of returns and station workloads. No formal policy changes or budget actions were proposed during the discussion.
The board proceeded to other agenda items after accepting the report.
