The Advocacy Committee of the Granville Area Chamber of Commerce wants our business members to be aware of the upcoming increase in waste taxes.

Solid waste districts in Ohio were created by the State in 1988 to create plans for adequate disposal capacity for the district and to implement programs that would reduce dependence on landfills through reuse, reduction
and recycling. Granville is in a solid waste district that includes four counties: Fairfield, Licking, Coshocton, and Perry.  The solid waste districts can asses taxes/fees to pay for their programs.  These fees are taxes on the generator and are collected at the landfill, but passed back to residents and businesses in their monthly bills.  For years the fees in this district were; In-District $1.00 per ton, Out-of-District  $4.00 per ton, and out-of-state $1.00 per ton.
