Beginning July 17, the Kalapana Transfer Station will operate on Wednesdays and Saturdays from 8am to 4pm.

Mayor Roth’s decision to extend the hours follows numerous community consultations and careful consideration of the needs and concerns expressed by residents.

In a press release Mayor Roth said, “We have heard the voices of our community loud and clear. After evaluating the situation, we determined this to be the best path forward that addresses manpower issues and feasibility while providing more options for our residents.”
