The Brown County Commission heard from RJ Hamilton of Hamilton Recycling, who requested on Monday morning for the commission to consider going in with neighboring counties for a recycling center. Hamilton told the commissioners that the Falls City recycling location shut down in 2019 due to equipment failure, but he has been asked by many people for local avenues to reopen one. He said he was hoping Richardson County in Nebraska could work with Brown County to reopen a recycling center. He said he hoped to get other neighboring counties involved for a possible regional program. The commissioners said they weren’t opposed to having a station set up at the Brown County Landfill, however wanted more information and to see if Hamilton could set up an organization before they committed to putting any funds toward a regional recycling center.
