County Council Adopts 2027 Solid-Waste Budget
From the Blackford County Council budget-adoption meeting on September 9, 2026
Blackford County Council adopted the 2027 solid-waste budget in a separate 6-0 vote immediately after approving the main county budget.
Casey Dick made the motion on the solid-waste budget, and Kyle Lechien seconded it. Council then approved the measure by a second unanimous roll-call vote during the same Sept. 9 budget-adoption meeting.
The transcript makes the outcome clear, but it does not clearly preserve the spending total or levy tied to the solid-waste budget. Still, council handled it as its own formal budget action rather than folding it into the main county budget vote.
