Children's theater presents fall production

A DIVIDED TOWN: Actors and actresses rehearse a scene from the Osceola Children’s Theatre’s fall play. The blue people (on the left) and the green people don’t get along in the play until they learn to accept one another.

A town divided by color will come together in Osceola Children’s Theatre’s fall production “Flying Colors.” The blue and green people of Splitsville ignore one another at the beginning of the play, until they learn to accept each others differences. Through the play, students from Clarke and Murray Community Schools expanded their vocabulary with new words like vigilante, news anchor and psychiatrist.  Students also learned the importance of treating people the same, even if they have differences. The show will take place Nov. 20 and 21 at 7 p.m. at Clarke Community High School’s stage.

Clarke County Landfill Commission voted to proceed with a transfer station to replace the landfill after it reaches capacity, but Osceola City Council hasn't given its support for the idea. What do you think is the best option for the city of Osceola?
A transfer station would be most convenient, even if it comes at slightly higher costs than direct hauling and keeps the city in the 28E agreement.
If direct hauling to Madison County Landfill or Metro Waste Authority is the cheapest option, it's the best choice despite some inconvenience to those who currently drop off waste at Clarke County Landfill.
Although it could be the most expensive option, Clarke County should build another landfill.
I don't care what the city decides.
