33 YEARS AGO: Ozark County takes over recycling center again

Jan. 19, 1994, Ozark County Times: Ozark County is once again in the recycling business... Commissioners met with representatives of the Sheltered Workshop, which had previously operated the recycling center on County Road 502, off old Highway 160 east of Gainesville. 

The Ozark County Sheltered Workshop turned the recycling center back over to the county following a huge loss by the center. According to figure provided by the Sheltered Workshop, the recycling center had an income in 1993 of $3,430.05. That’s compared to the total expenses for the center, which total $9,581.89, for a loss of $6,151.84.

Jerry Rowlett will remain the manager of the recycling center.
