Commission hears more about proposed recycling program

(KNZA)--The Brown County Commission heard more about a proposed recycling program when they meet Monday.

RJ Hamilton of Hamilton Recycling and Disposal, of Falls City, meet with the commission to further discuss the program he would like to start in Brown County and other neighboring counties as well.

Hamilton said he anticipates an overall budget of $140,000, which would be split among participating counties.

He said he is also looking at a cost-sharing of the revenue from the materials collected.

Drop off containers, provided by Hamilton, would be set up at locations in the participating counties.

Hamilton said he is looking at grants to help with the cost of the program.

The Commission took no action, with more information to be gathered.

Hamilton met with the Richardson County Commission last week to discuss the proposal and plans to reach out to other counties as well.
