Tuesday, November 14, 2017 

At their regular meeting on Monday, November 13, 2017, the Lee County Board of Commissioners approved new hours of operation for the Scale House and Yard Waste Area of the Lee County Resource Management Facility to take effect on Friday, December 1, 2017. 

The Lee County Resource Management Facility (formerly the County Landfill) is located at 331 Landfill Road and includes a Convenience Center along with the Scale House and Yard Waste Area; hours for the Convenience Center will remain unchanged.

Hours of Operation - Current:
Convenience Center & Scale House and Yard Waste Area
Monday – Friday               8:00 AM – 4:00 PM        
Saturday                              8:00 AM – 12:00 PM 

Hours of Operation – December 1, 2017:
Convenience Center                                                   
Monday – Friday               8:00 AM – 4:00 PM        
Saturday                              8:00 AM – 12:00 PM    

Scale House and Yard Waste Area                                                                               
Monday – Wednesday        8:00 AM – 4:00 PM            Thursday                             CLOSED                                                                                
Friday                                 8:00 AM – 4:00 PM
Saturday                              8:00 AM – 12:00 PM

The schedule change closes the Scale House and Yard Waste Area one day per week (Thursday) and will result in an estimated savings of $2,330 for the remainder of the current fiscal year that ends on June 30, 2017.  The schedule change is not anticipated to negatively impact utilization of the site based on a review of the public use of the service by county staff.
