Sheriff's report

ACCIDENT

An accident nine miles north of Woodburn on Dec. 11 happened after Doni Sieck swerved to avoid hitting a deer on 330th Ave. Sieck was unable to control the vehicle because of icy conditions and went into the ditch and rolled twice. Damage was estimated at $5,000.

A truck sustained $8,000 damage after it hit a snow pile and landed on its side. Charles Hodge Jr. was driving north in the 2400 block of 270th Ave. when his vehicle hit a patch of ice and turned sideways. The vehicle then hit the snow along the east side of the roadway, causing the truck to roll over onto its side.

Reader poll

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.
