The Stallion Springs CSD held a Town Hall meeting on Feb. 29 at the Community Center. The CSD held the meeting regarding proposed changes to what is acceptable waste and what is not at the solid waste site.

The CSD sent out surveys to 1,400 residents with three possible options. There were 583 responses to the survey. Option one was for home pickup, which received 60 votes. Option two was for a manned/limited hour waste center, which had 161 votes. Option three was for a key entry 24/7 assess, which received 362 votes.

The survey results overwhelming favored option three, which will involve a gated facility that only residents with an issued RFI I.D. tag on their headlight can access. This option has no price increase at this time. The cost will be, with board approval, absorbed by the Capital Reserve Account.

There were over 200 residents in attendance. The project will take several months to complete, but will assist with controlling the waste area.
