With possible changes to Act 73 on the horizon, the city should consider the possibility of developing two or more landfill sites since there will be opposition to any site chosen. Cost will be a factor, but if two sites or more are available, traffic can be distributed between the sites and the city can alternate when they are in operation.
Plans should also include possible uses of these sites after they are no longer functional, such as parks, transfer points for bus riders, golf courses, archery ranges and the like. Hopefully the city selection committee has given consideration to what will become of these landfill sites. Otherwise, we need new members on the selection committee with new ideas.
