5. Review Spring Clean Up numbers
The board members reviewed the Spring Clean up number for 2011. The City of Brookings loads
from the curb pickup were about the same as in 2010, the Trailer Court loads were just two more
then 2010. The National Guards were unable to help with the branch clean up in 2011 because of
the possible shout down of the government. The general public loads hauled to the landfill were
down 370 loads form 2010. The cold wet weather had a lot to do with the down swing on the
loads.
The landfill costs were right in there as previous years and the total cost for all departments was
$ 17,917.16 less than in 2010.
