And he took that anger to the meeting of Township council Mon- day afternoon. What caused him to see red was the refusal by the operator of the Cartwright Transfer Sta- tion to allow him to dump a small trailer filled with pieces of broken wall plaster. "I just don't think it's right, the Nestleton resident told councillors Monday afternoon. "I pay my taxes and I don't think I should have to go elsewhere to dump this stuff," he said. He said the weight of the plaster he was trying to discard at the transfer station east of Blackstock amounted to no more than 500 pounds, but he was still turned away. Mr. Linington hauled the small trailer behind the Township office on Perry St. and told coun- cillors he was so angry hie was half-considering tipping the load on municipal property. While members of council sympathized with Mr. Linington, they pointed out that the transfer station is for household garbage only, and the recently hired caretaker has been given order to turn away so- called "construction materials." Councillor Lawrence | Malcolm pointed out that before the station was supervised this past winter, the cost of haul- ing away bins of trash: and garbage had soared to nearly $100,000 a year, and if that continued the station would have to close completely. "The station is suppos- ed to be a service for the areas of Cartwright where there is no regular garbage pick-up," said councillor Malcolm. While Mr. Linington's anger had subsided con- siderably by the time he left the council table after a half hour discus- Nestleton man sees red when denied dump station sion with the elected of- ficials, he still claimed the policy was un-fair, and suggested he might risk a fine to make his point and dump the small load of broken plaster somewhere on Township - property. Up until January of this year, the transfer station had not been supervised, and there were instances of con- tractors and commercial garbage haulers dump- ing large truck-loads of trash in the bins. The cost of trucking the con- tents of these bins to a landfill site was growing prohibitive for the municipality. The hours of the sta- tion were shortened by council order and the permanent caretaker was hired with the in- structions from cauncil to turn away everything except household gar- bage and light junk from yards or basements. The new policies for the transfer station will be reviewed again by council this July.
