Solid Waste Enterprise Fund Funding Plan and Flow Control
Henderson County
Summary
The county's solid waste fund is running consistent operational deficits that require taxpayer subsidies from the general fund. Staff presented "flow control" as a potential fix, which would force all county trash to go to the Stony Mountain facility and allow higher tipping fees, though haulers warn it could raise garbage bills for residents.
