transferring local waste down south I personally prefer the Burlington because its the most environmentally safe but Im questioning in my own mind how big a part costs play the Mayor said The priority In the site selection was public safety and health with cost last on the list of factors Mayor Miller said that he Is going to continue his fight to make trans fer stations a regional responsibility A transfer Elation is where the collected garbage Is dumped off in Hills and com pacted before being driven down to Burling- Ion The towns transfer slat Ion is on Armstrong Avenue Currently users of the station pay for each load when he they drop off making Piper he meets their costs much higher rutin than the costs of garbage producers in the south If we have to absorb lhat transfer cost Its going lo be unbearable Mayor Miller said If Ihe second choice for a landfill in Milton had been chosen It would have meant direct haul ing or garbage for Hills with no need for a transfer station hence
