THE SOLID WASTE DISTRICT'S MISSION:
OUR MISSION IS TO MANAGE WASTE IN GRAND COUNTY TO ENSURE PUBLIC HEALTH, SAFETY, AND WELFARE IN A MANNER THAT PROMISES ZERO WASTE!
The Solid Waste District is governed by a Control Board consisting of five members of the county. One position is a representative of the City of Moab, one position is a representative of Grand County, one position is a representative of the Town of Castle Valley, and the other two positions are "at large". The Control Board meets the second Thursday of every month at the district office at 4:00pm and the meetings are open to the general public. At the January meeting we welcomed the new Grand County representative, Rory Paxman. At the January meeting, the board elected new officers to serve for the next two years. Greg Stucki, the Moab City representative, will be the Chairman. Kevin Fitzgerald, one of the at-large members, will serve as the Vice-Chair. Pam Hackley, the other at-large members, will remain as the Treasurer. Bruce Millis, the Castle Valley representative will be the ADA officer. These fine folks donate their time to oversee the landfill and recycling operations because they truely care about our beautiful home.
