Sheffield to Get Even Trashier?

 

Colbert County and its cities will now be using a Morgan County landfill until the Cherokee facility is again usable. Costs will only increase $2.00 per ton to $27.00; however, the drive time will also increase. Read: Less time each day for actual pickups.

J. Redmon has been urban exploring again and reports that 21st Street in Sheffield looks like a post-apocalyptic war zone. He was too gobsmacked to get any photos, but advises to drive in that area at your own risk. He also commented that the Sheffield street department seemed not to be aware of that neighborhood's existence. We welcome photos from any Sheffield residents who wish to share. 

In the interim since we last visited John Elkington, he's managed to get the old recycling buildings at the entrance to Inspiration Landing town down. Perhaps the citizens of Sheffield should be grateful for any progress?

If you're counting, the City of Sheffield has now made five payments on the two USDA loans. If any further progress has been made on the IL project, we're unaware of it.

We hear there's always plenty of seating at the Sheffield City Council meetings...
