The Catron County Commission has authorized a committee of citizens to investigate solutions to the solid waste problem in Catron County. A meeting was held on January 30, 2014 at the County Courthouse. The attendees were Cathlyn Snyder (county manager), Mark Atwood ( solid waste superintendent), Kate Fletcher ( accounts payable), Susan Johni Griffin ( county assessor), and Connie Shipley (county treasurer) representing the county. David Peters, Dell Gigante, Wayne Ashby, Bob Howell,Cindy Howell, and Charles Pollina representing the citizens. The purpose of the meeting was to establish the committee and gather background information to clarify the problems associated with solid waste disposal in Catron County.
We are in the process of forming this committee and are soliciting both your help and consideration. If you are interested in volunteering or have ideas or information you would like to share please contact Dave, Wayne, or Dell. (contact information below).
These problems have existed for many years and cannot be solved overnight. However, our objective is to have a solution before the next billing cycle which will occur in June, 2014. There is a lot of important information regarding the current situation that is too complex to discuss here. Dell, Wayne, and I are putting together plans for Town Hall meetings to explain the situation and answer questions. We plan for these to take place in Reserve, Glenwood, Datil and Quemado over the next few weeks.
We all want to be heard, but individuals taking an abusive attitude with the county will not help. Please be patient and allow this committee to work. We will find an answer. Carol Auffrey will be sending out more information when we nail down the Town hall Meetings. Please plan to attend and ask your neighbors to attend. Through Carol we will keep you updated as timely and accurately as possible. Accurate information, embracing creative solutions and the willingness to work together will get this job done. Thank you for being part of the solution.
