Compost center to revert to 24 hours

A county Solid Waste committee meeting attended by area city and township officials led the panel to vote Monday to restore funding to the compost center after it had voted last month to withhold funding. That earlier vote led the city, the lone funding agency, to cut hours from 24 hours to eight and to limit use to city residents only. Last night, the Marshall City Council learned that the Division Drive operation will return to its previous hours and access by county residents once the county signs on the dotted line, likely by November.
