The Shelbyville (Indiana) News reports that a Shelbyville resident charged with violating recycling ordinances will meet with the Shelby County Recycling Compliance Board Aug. 24, 2016.
At a meeting Wednesday, July 28, 2016, the board reviewed footage of Ricky Badgley depositing restricted recyclables at the bins at 1304 N. Michigan Rd. If the board finds him guilty, Badgley will be required to pay a fine, as well as the cost of landfilling the restricted materials, the article says.
“It would have been cheaper for him to follow the law,” Lisa Carpenter, director of the Shelby County Recycling District, said at the board meeting.
