County to seek grant for new recycling baler
12/12/2017

(KMZA)--Nemaha County will seek a grant through the Kansas Department of Health and Environment for the purchase of new baler for the county recycling center.

Rural Development Association of Northeast Kansas Director Nancy Gafford met with the County Commission Monday to discuss the grant application she is preparing to submit for the new piece of equipment.

If approved, the grant would fund 40 percent of the $82,000 cost for a new baler.

The county would be responsible the remaining 60 percent.  

Gafford said the current baler, which was manufactured in 2002, is no longer working well.

Commissioners gave Gafford approval to submit the grant application which is due Friday.
