Wisconsin Village's Transfer Station Case Heads To State Supreme Court

The village of Hobart (www.hobart-wi.org), Wisconsin is suing Brown County (www.co.brown.wi.us) for building and operating a transfer station in the village. The county has operated the facility for 18 months, and the village is now asking the Wisconsin Supreme Court (www.courts.state.wi.us) to shut it down. Up to 200 trucks a day haul waste through the facility to an Outagamie County (www.co.outagamie.wi.us) landfill. The county contends that Hobart originally supported the idea, but backed out too late. The village contends that the county violated zoning laws in building the station.
