I found out from a county resident um 119 00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:33,600 that I had actually been breaking the law 120 00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:39,680 for I don't know, 20-some years by putting my recycling in the city 121 00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:43,520 recycling dumpsters.

They used to do county clean up, hazardous waste clean up. 130 00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:24,480 But I think we need to research if those are still being collected. 131 00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:27,800 And that money be dispersed because I think 132 00:17:26,319 --> 00:17:31,120 Vilas Junction and Stanton are probably the same way. 133 00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:36,160 » Yeah, they're still being collected. And And you're right, Vilas has got the same 134 00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:39,480 » Right, for their recycling dumpsters.

It's a cost. 137 00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:53,760 And talking with the city administrator, it's it's a substantial cost 138 00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:56,760 that they have to come up with in order to get rid of that. 139 00:17:57,360 --> 00:18:04,680 » Yeah. >> So, people are starting to be notified 140 00:18:00,360 --> 00:18:04,680 because mainly because people are 141 00:18:05,120 --> 00:18:12,552 ignorant and leave piles of boxes down there unflattened with their address on 142 00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:14,572 them. >> [laughter] 143 00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:24,120 » It's pretty easy to determine they're not a city resident. 144 00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:26,640 So, and more and more people find out about this cuz I've been doing it for 145 00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:28,880 years and never thought anything about it. 146 00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:34,040 » So, what do we do as >> Well, that's the first 147 00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:39,920 In order for us in the country, we we have no other 148 00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:43,960 uh it's put it in your dumpster, send it straight to the landfill.

I think the discussion 155 00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:05,840 needs to be started. What are we going to do? 156 00:19:04,440 --> 00:19:09,800 Cuz there's a lot of rural residents that that like to recycle and are in the 157 00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:13,920 habit of recycling. >> So, the landfill thing you guys were 158 00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:18,240 talking about, is that is there I mean, is there 159 00:19:15,600 --> 00:19:20,960 is was the landfill helping subsidize that or was are they money from 160 00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:23,840 somebody? >> There's fees that go into the landfill 161 00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:27,400 commission. And historically what it's been 162 00:19:25,760 --> 00:19:29,600 » From the city and the county or >> No, no, no. It's from the landfill 163 00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:33,320 itself. >> Okay. Okay.

This last 169 00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:49,240 year, I don't know exactly what the issue was, but there was a changeover in 170 00:19:47,120 --> 00:19:51,480 who was organizing that effort. >> Is that 171 00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:55,360 » I think it was a guy through Clarios maybe had been organizing it well then 172 00:19:53,480 --> 00:20:00,320 it was different and then actually there wasn't specifically a county-wide. Um 173 00:19:58,120 --> 00:20:03,880 but I was on landfill commission, but in January we transferred over and actually 174 00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:07,280 Marcus on it now, but the landfill commission's not met yet to make that 175 00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:10,080 switchover. >> Oh, okay. 176 00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:13,360 » kind of this weird in limbo where Marcus and I are both kind of 177 00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:15,760 tied to it until we meet again as a landfill commission to make that 178 00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:20,320 transfer. Um 179 00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:23,880 I can't tell exactly whether that's a a call for the landfill commission. It 180 00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:28,360 probably is for them to say the money needs to go to this or that. 181 00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:32,120 And there was discussion about potentially taking the the dollars that 182 00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:36,040 are sitting there instead of since we didn't do a a county-wide cleanup, 183 00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:39,240 potentially taking those dollars and allocating them individually to 184 00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:41,200 communities. >> Mhm. 185 00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:45,640 » You're right. I mean, Blissfield's got that same issue. I think the difference 186 00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:48,360 is that and probably Stanton, uh the difference is they're just kind of 187 00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:51,760 eating it as a known cost that they have to deal with. 188 00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:55,440 And I think the trade-off could be that you're spending money in 189 00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:58,760 the community as a rural resident, I'm not buying anything from my grocery 190 00:20:57,000 --> 00:21:02,160 store out out in the country next to Hackle Barney. So, that's your 191 00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:06,920 trade-off, but there's also potentially some funding that could be used. 192 00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:10,200 I can't tell for sure if that's us that needs to make that call. It's probably 193 00:21:08,360 --> 00:21:13,320 the landfill commission that needs to make that decision. 194 00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:17,480 Um so I think that would probably be >> Because we all do business I mean I do 195 00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:20,200 all my business in here, groceries, and and all that stuff. 196 00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:23,040 pharmacy >> Again, you know, and I'll be devil's 197 00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:25,520 advocate. >> Yeah. 198 00:21:23,360 --> 00:21:27,089 » Whatever. So are the citizens of Red Oak. 199 00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:29,160 » As usual. >> [laughter] 200 00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:31,680 » So are the citizens of Red Oak. They buy their stuff here. 201 00:21:29,920 --> 00:21:37,000 » Well, and then they pay extra here. >> They're paying on their water bill to 202 00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:39,720 have that service. We are not Um I just don't want it to become a blown up issue 203 00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:42,440 that we just >> It would be. 204 00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:45,440 » It is a It's an issue and we probably need to deal with it. 205 00:21:43,360 --> 00:21:48,040 » What do they pay? Does anybody know? >> Um on their water bill, you mean? 206 00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:49,920 » Yeah. Does anybody know? 207 00:21:49,120 --> 00:21:53,680 » I don't remember. >> around for Red Oak, Red Oak or 208 00:21:52,480 --> 00:21:55,920 » I don't remember. I'd have to look at my water bill. 209 00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:56,920 » Okay. Okay. Okay. 210 00:21:56,720 --> 00:22:03,360 » Okay. >> I know Diamond's like $2.50. $2.50. 211 00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:04,480 » So like $4 something. >> Okay. 212 00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:06,240 » All right. >> Okay. 213 00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:09,680 » I know and I don't know >> Put that on the agenda for 214 00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:13,880 » We'd have to get accurate more accurate figures but and and I hope I don't start 215 00:22:12,280 --> 00:22:18,800 an uproar here but it was I think I remember Lisa mentioning a 216 00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:22,200 number of like 85,000 per year to get rid of those dumpsters, 217 00:22:20,840 --> 00:22:26,160 to get those dumpsters hauled and dumped. 218 00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:29,560 That's a big chunk of change. >> Yes, it is. Yes. 219 00:22:27,320 --> 00:22:32,880 » Even if it's 25,000, I mean it's it's it's substantial. 220 00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:36,800 Um what you know, like when you go downsize Villisca and Stanton pro 221 00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:40,520 proportionately it's a cost. 222 00:22:37,840 --> 00:22:43,720 » Yeah, there's a cost cost associated. I I think it's worth discussing but I I 223 00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:47,040 think we also need to clearly delineate is this a supervisor decision or a 224 00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:49,960 landfill? Cuz I think the way the money's spent is a landfill decision. 225 00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:51,520 But we can still have a discussion about it. 226 00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:56,080 » I think the landfill commission needs to be involved in this like the 227 00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:58,040 disbursement of those funds could help in this 228 00:22:57,280 --> 00:23:00,120 dilemma. >> Mhm. 229 00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:04,920 » How it's done. >> Can you do that? 230 00:23:00,880 --> 00:23:04,920 » Let we need to contact Mike Carson? 231 00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:14,360 » Either or. Yeah, we just need to be have them actively meet. 232 00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:17,560 Mark, you're on that commission right now, aren't you? 233 00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:22,040 » Yes. >> And when was when have they met last, 234 00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:26,640 you know? I Is it like They just haven't. 235 00:23:24,360 --> 00:23:29,240 » No. No, not since we've transferred over 236 00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:33,600 from >> Not since January 1. 237 00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:38,080 » But knowing that, I think we need to know that and exactly how they do get 238 00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:42,560 their funding. Is it still coming from uh the landfill owners, that tipping 239 00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:45,440 fee, whatever it was back then? I don't know. 240 00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:48,880 » Uh yeah, I would say the other the other piece of that maybe worth researching is 241 00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:52,600 uh the last meeting we did have, there was pretty significant discussion about 242 00:23:50,600 --> 00:23:55,480 how do we disband this because we're not really 243 00:23:53,600 --> 00:24:00,680 actively doing things and primarily that money goes to the city or the countywide 244 00:23:57,640 --> 00:24:03,640 cleanup. So, if there's a way to restructure that, I'm sure that a lot of 245 00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:07,080 the people that are currently on the commission would say let's do that. 246 00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:10,280 » It'd be restructured or they have a new purpose. 247 00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:14,560 » New purpose or maybe Yeah, maybe there's a way that that can fall under us and 248 00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:18,040 make it a little easier. I don't know cuz I don't know enough about it cuz I 249 00:24:16,560 --> 00:24:22,600 was really only there for >> I know Donna was on that. She probably 250 00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:25,200 might have some background, so. >> Well, I know years ago a lot of it went 251 00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:30,280 to countywide cleanup. And when when cities 252 00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:33,840 took it, well, then of course they wanted to limit it to just city 253 00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:36,000 residents, which I don't blame them if they're paying for it. 254 00:24:35,360 --> 00:24:39,040 » Right. >> Well, the trade-off would be if you're 255 00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:42,720 getting money that's that's countywide, then you need to be countywide for you. 256 00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:46,840 » Yes, if we're going to do that, yeah. >> But you can do that where you can say, 257 00:24:44,680 --> 00:24:50,600 "Okay, if Villisca's doing it, then if you're a Villisca resident or if your 258 00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:53,880 driver's license is rural in some way, then great. You can come dump cuz you 259 00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:58,080 still have to do that at the city level, too." And then Stanton is the same way. 260 00:24:56,320 --> 00:25:01,680 You either have to be rural or a Stanton resident. Red Oak's the same way. 261 00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:04,120 Whether whether you're Red Oak resident or rural, but if you're a Villisca 262 00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:06,720 resident, you can't come over to Stanton. 263 00:25:05,720 --> 00:25:11,120 And that's kind of how it's already structured for the city-wide 264 00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:13,880 » For rural Villisca, you have recycling there in Villisca, in the city of 265 00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:15,600 Villisca. So >> Yeah, sorry. 266 00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:18,040 » come in, right? >> Yeah, yeah. In that case, I was talking 267 00:25:17,360 --> 00:25:19,120 about the city-wide. >> Okay, okay. 268 00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:21,840 » Yes. >> Sorry. 269 00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:25,720 » But yes, you're right. The county people do go in and the city council has talked 270 00:25:24,320 --> 00:25:30,040 about it in the past, and it's just kind of a known 271 00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:34,360 uh cost that they have to deal with. Yeah, otherwise it's landfill or there 272 00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:38,480 are options uh to drive it up to Omaha, which I'm 273 00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:42,400 sure everybody's falling over themselves to do. 274 00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:45,960 Maybe council lost. >> Anyway, I thought it needs to be 275 00:25:44,360 --> 00:25:48,840 researched and what can we do before we don't want it 276 00:25:47,600 --> 00:25:52,040 to become The more and more letters go out, the 277 00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:57,560 more and more people get upset and they're misinformed about why. 278 00:25:56,080 --> 00:26:00,360 It's not a money maker. >> Did you say Did Who's the chair? Did you 279 00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:02,520 say Mike 280 00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:06,680 » It's in the skillet hole in the back. >> I'm going to call I'll call Donna, too, 281 00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:10,120 and find out. You know, just the back what what they did in the past, cuz 282 00:26:08,120 --> 00:26:14,120 she's got the she's got the back knowledge, the history of it. So 283 00:26:12,760 --> 00:26:17,120 Want to just put it on for discussion next week? Let's do that. Yeah, see what 284 00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:21,800 we find out. Okay. >> Okay. 285 00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:21,800 » Right. Um 286 00:26:21,840 --> 00:26:24,680 All right. 287 00:26:24,760 --> 00:26:29,320 Do you have anything else that you have for the agenda next week? What about the 288 00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:31,200 » Um >> Hopefully we'll [clears throat] have 289 00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:34,800 that suspension back. >> Okay. Okay. Okay. 290 00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:41,160 I don't have anything else. Nothing came to me, so. 291 00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:45,160 Okay. All right. Anything else that needs to 292 00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:48,960 be on the agenda? Okay. Hearing none, the next regular meeting 293 00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:55,200 is scheduled for Tuesday, September 15th at 2026 at 9:00 a.m. 294 00:26:53,840 --> 00:26:59,280 » I so move. >> We need to adjourn. Thank you, everyone.
