J.R. Williamson, Scott County's solid-waste coordinator, said many people who don't have curbside pickup or don't want to pay for it take advantage of those who do, by dumping their trash in places ranging from construction sites to hillsides. Rebeckah Freeman, natural resources director for the Kentucky Farm Bureau, said her organization has not taken a position on any proposed solid-waste legislation because no bill has been presented.
