KAWARTHA LAKES-A new state of the art compost recieving area is now open at the Lindsay Ops landfill.
The new compost site features innovative engineering design and is much larger than the previous site, making leaf and yard waste drop off easier and faster for residents.“We are excited to be able to provide the public with more efficient service now, and as we move into the future,” said David Kerr, Manager of Environmental Services. “The new system has room for growth, is safer and more environmentally friendly.”
In order to access the new compost site all traffic will go over the landfill scales and proceed to the far north end of the site where signs will direct the public where to drop off leaf and yard waste. Residents are asked not to use the old drop off location beside the main gates.
The city is holding an Open House for residents to learn more about how the City protects the environment at the landfill. The Open House will be held Wednesday, October 25 from 7pm to 8pm in the Victoria Room at City Hall, 26 Francis Street, Lindsay.
