INC NEWS - wrong time for Solid Waste 10 yr. plan meeting

Thu May 4 10:35:30 EDT 2006

Although the public meeting was lightly attended,  I believe that staff took back a lot of the suggested ideas and thoughts on contingencies that were brought up by the five or six of us that were present.

It was also helpful to have the statistics for 2005 included in the report.

It might be worthwhile for INC to post the worksession and/or presentation to City Council when it's scheduled so others might have a last chance to add to it.

  As a result, Solid waste put on not one, but two quite excellent presentations.
  Just sorry more folks from the community missed them.

      I said it was at 7PM; I was notified by phone (because they saw my post
      reminding of the meeting) that it is 6PM
