Pawnee City City Hall
(KLZA)--Owners of a Pawnee City business have volunteered to make a monthly payment to allow the City to add another recycling bin.
Josh Hermer and Trisha White who run the Blazin Bull restaurant and bar will pay $60 per month. That will allow the number of bins to be increased to five.
Currently, the City has just four bins which has led to some overflow problems. The City has no place to store the overflow so if it is set on the street by the bins, if it does not blow away, it is thrown away.
In addition, the City asks that people place boxes in the bins, break them down flat to save room. If a box is put in upside down with nothing inside it, that is taking up quite a bit of space.
Mayor Charlie Hatfield asked the Pawnee County Commissioners if they could help with the costs for additional bins, but the Board felt they could not financially aid the effort.
City Clerk Tammy Curtis says when people living outside Pawnee City bring in items to put in the recycling bins, it helps the City out. Usually non-residents will also be going out to eat, going to a store to make a purchase or buying gas instead of just making a special trip to the recycling bins.
The recycling bins are located across the street from City Hall.
