recycling made easy

[ShallowsNole]

Blue bags are also at Sundog Books.

I'm with SJ. I worry about my recycling getting spilled/wet/dispersed when the garbage truck crushes it. I also have my doubts about the environmental motivation of the average inmate.

So I take my stuff to the trailer behind Publix on 395. I'm there 2 or 3 times a week anyway and it only takes an extra 5 minutes. If you've gone to the trouble to save it separately at the house, it's no big deal. And you get some reasonable assurance it will actually be recycled, making your effort worth your time. Call me obsessive, but there you have it.

We use the recycling dumpsters as well, particularly for newspapers (those get too heavy in the blue bag to drag 2/10s of a mile to the spot where our garbage gets picked up). However, do be aware that the dumpsters get hauled to the same place the garbage does.

Joe--You always make too much logical sense--seriously, you should be a County Commissioner--I would work for you..! A little more investment in the Walton Co.Waste Department could save a lot of man hours, and the prison population could then be put to much BETTER use, i.e., working on Hwy. 98 and 30A litter problem!

I agree. Maybe y'all could get the county gov't changed down there so there is only one commissioner for Walton County...it's the only way I can see SJ taking the job. ;-) But, what a wonder he would be for this part of FL!!!

I don't think they will let me run for Skeeter Commissioner and County Commissioner for the same term. I read that the Skeeter Commissioner in WalCo is paid a salary of $120,000 annually. Does anyone know how much a County Commissioner's salary is in WalCo?

$120K? What are the job requirements? Scooterbug for Mosquito Control 2007!

I think you get to hire someone to place ads in the paper to hire a supervisor and some hourly peeps for spraying and sampling.

Holy crap, that's more than the Sheriff makes!!!

Kind of makes you wonder how he pulled off a 100% salary increase in so few years. I guess that like other elected officials, he gets to increase his own salary.

I am going to be in Blue Mountain for a week in September. Where is the closest recycling dumpster?

Unlike elected constitutional officials, his salary must not be dictated by state law and based on county population.

Oh, and for poodleone, the nearest recycling dumpster for you would probably be either at the South Walton Courthouse Annex on 331, or at Butler Elementary School on West 30-A.
