City Engineer Mike Wever says a compactor truck with side loading arm being purchased in part with grant money could take up to four months to arrive…
McGirr confirmed at the end of the meeting the containers would be available in the first part of June. Commissioner Kerwin Haeder says the city could get around the lack of a recycling truck by using an existing garbage truck for temporary duty.
Approximately 650 people have signed up for the program. The goal for participants is1000.
