Chatham County will hold a series of four community meetings to present proposed criteria for siting a new landfill and take comments from the public on the process and methods. The criteria will guide the next phase of the siting process, when the county’s project team will narrow the list of nine potential sites down to three.
The meeting schedule is:
• Jan. 11, 10 a.m. to noon at Western Senior Center in Siler City;
• Jan. 18, 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. at Chatham Central High School in Bear Creek;
• Jan. 19, 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. at the Chatham Community Library in Pittsboro; and
• Jan. 20, 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. at the Moncure Fire Department
Information that will be discussed during the community meetings can be found on the Landfill Information section of the Waste Management department’s website: chathamnc.org/Index.aspx?page=1402
