Steuben County Manager Jack Wheeler says, county lawmakers will be presenting Local Law Number Three, Establishing a Registry for Animal Abusers. A bill will be presented at the February 23rd county meeting – with a public hearing and vote on it in March. This is something County Legislative Chairwoman Kelly Fitzpatrick has been pushing for. Also on February 23rd the county will be waiving the Established Tip Fees for Roadside Cleanup Weeks for Local Municipalities – Wheelers says they’ve done this for many years, working with towns for them to cleanup roadside debris and bring to the landfill at no charge.
Also, Steuben County will be authorizing a Tire Amnesty Week and Establishing and Even Recycle Fee – that will be for one week in July when residents can bring tires to the landfill for $1.00 instead of $3.00.
