The dumps were built to help keep the recyclable items out of the land field to save space . Thanks to Com. Chairman the late Davis Morgan.

You make us pay to use the centers now. Open at a later time, took the tire bin out. Employees that work there treat you like they are doing you a favor to let you use the center that you are paying to use. Charging residents instead of putting it in our taxes like they were doing obviously is not accepted well by the residents. It should have been voted on by the residents to at least get there input. Residents are not kept informed of the changes that occur in this county.

I am 100 percent with you. This was a mistake from day one. The citizens considered this as a service and it was well use of tax dollars for the citizens and in keeping the county clean.

Fees much too high for seniors and disabled people. This just encourages illegal dumping.

I'm 80 years old and believe there should be zero fees or a substantial discount for seniors.

I don't have excess money. Can't afford to buy a tag. And I am a senior/veteran citizen. Drop the fee.

$155 is a lot IMHO, let's get rid of the fees for these fixed or little to no income persons.

Newton County can never get enough money from working people, always comes back for more.

drop the fees or reduce our taxes by the same amount The trash collection sites were/are part of what we currently pay county taxes for and not receiving.

The segments of population noted are known to need discounts. Perhaps on a needs-basis?

The fee is too much for us that are on a limited income.
