The landfill, which has been a major problem to the city for a number of years, is being closed to the satisfaction of the state's regulatory agency and at a much less cost to the city than originally thought.
Billing is done on a monthly cycle.
A mail drop slot at City Hall is available for after hours payment. The City of Palacios provides its customers with drinking water from ground water. Garbage service is provided by Waste Management Inc., through the Utility Billing Department at City Hall. Service will be obtained when you establish an account for water. Putnam stated that he had received a letter from the State that declares the landfill has officially been designated as closed.
