- Approved the city hauling about 8,000 pounds of mixed recycling to the Green County transfer station to allow the station to determine whether co-mingled recycling would be cost effective. The station currently accepts only separated recycling. Randy Thompson, Green County transfer station manager, said the station needs the co-mingled recycling to help recalculate handling and shipping costs. The city will pay the cost of hauling the recycling to the Green County transfer station.
