(KNZA)--The Doniphan County Commission wants the company that operates the county trash collection transfer station at the west edge of Wathena to address a number of issues.
The Commission held a telephone conference call during this week’s meeting with Paul Howe, operations manager for Waste Management Inc., to discuss the issues.
Among the concerns discussed were the dilapidated condition of the transfer station building, unkempt grounds around the property and long wait times for haulers and patrons.
Also brought up was the trash along U.S. Highway 36 from the Pony Express Bridge to the transfer station located on St. Columbus Road. In addition, the Commission pointed out the need for a local telephone number that county residents can call regarding the transfer station.
Howe said he will research the issues at hand and meet with the Commission at their next meeting to discuss them further in detail.
