To my knowledge, it's not been really established if the commercial haulers pay their "fair" share of the costs or not.  I'm not sure just what the taxpayer subsidy really is.  Could appreciable savings result from having those commercial haulers all tip directly at Short Mountain instead of Glennwood?...(tons of trash would then not have to be transferred, leading to considerable savings.) Is an icreased charge for commercial haulers appropriate?  I don't know any of these answers.  I do know that closing rural transfer sites will create more problems than it solves.
