The Adair County Board of Supervisors met for a brief meeting on Wednesday morning at in the boardroom at the Adair County Courthouse.

One topic of discussion was changes for collecting plastic at the landfill. They are recently done away with a locally placed bin that residents could put plastic in for recycling and those services have moved out to the landfill directly. They said they have heard complaints from a few residents concerned about more littering and not finding the location at the landfill. The board discussed it just wasn’t effective to have the bin anymore because only very specific plastic items could be recycled and too much other waste thrown in the bin was contaminating the loads. They said the changes at the landfill site have mostly been going smooth.

The board also held some discussion about street repair responsibilities in Bridgewater. There are some questions about responsibility for a current repair job and the county needs to update a 28-E agreement with the city for future repairs. They plan to speak with the city at their next council meeting to sort the issue out.
