Trash Talk Continues, City Sifting Through the Options

Eau Claire is talking about that new report on trash. 

Deputy City Manager Dave Solberg says neighbors were at yesterday’s meeting to confirm the details of the Wisconsin Policy Forum’s report on Eau Claire’s trash costs.

Solberg said it will take a while before anything changes. He says there are both environmental and budgetary concerns to deal with. CLICK HERE FOR COVERAGE WITH WEAU 13 NEWS.
