Garbage will be on commissioners’ minds
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Normally we don’t curtain raise county commission meetings in this column.
But there are two worth paying attention to this week.
On Monday night, the Gwinnett Board of Commissioners is holding a meeting on its new “solid waste management plan.” Translation: garbage disposal.
Believe it or not, the meeting’s likely to be a barn burner. The county’s likely to hear from professional trash haulers who fear the county is going to cut them out of the garbage business in Gwinnett.
The board votes on the plan Tuesday. The commissioners also are scheduled Tuesday to hire a contractor to help the county enforce an anti-illegal-immigration-contracting ordinance. That’s the one being challenged in federal court.
Then the Board of Commissioners will take up a water conservation plan to slap new heftier fines and surcharges on those who use too much water.
If you care, be there. Aloha.
