At the Sept. 6 regular meeting of the Ada Village Council, councilors approved the startup of a Village green waste site in response to a request by the Ada Tree Commission.
In the attached memo, Village Administrator Jamie Hall outlines the service, which will be for Ada residents only.
By appointment, residents will be allowed to bring "green waste" such as yard clippings, leaves and tree branches to the Village site at 514 E. Lincoln. See the attachment for a detailed description of what may and what may not be brought to the site. Unloading must be done by the resident.
The program will begin September 19 and continue through November 30, 2022. Hours of operation will be 8:00 a.m.-4:00 p.m. with an appointment. Scheduling will be done through the Utility office at 419-634-4045.
An expanded program is anticipated for 2023.
Compost and crushed concrete will also be distributed to residents at the site.
In reviewing the program, Hall mentioned his discussions with other communities and noted that expanded hours and a security system will considered in the 2023 budgeting process. He emphasized that the facility is not for use by contractors and will not accept construction debris.
