There was a heated exchange during Tuesday’s Jackson City Council meeting over the mayor’s lack of action to push a new request for proposals.
After closed-door meetings with attorneys, the mayor and Jackson City Council have agreed to an emergency garbage collection contract with Richard's Disposal.
The Hinds County Board of Supervisors is considering stepping in to help pick up Jackson’s trash.
The Jackson City Council voted down a one-year contract with Richard's Disposal, which means there is still no garbage collection in the city.
Richard’s Disposal employees helped Jackson residents unload trash into dumpsters Thursday that were set up at Metrocenter Mall.
