The Erie Board of Trustees has approved on a first reading to annex the Denver Regional Landfill from Weld County. If ultimately approved, the 346-acre dump will become a source of revenue for Erie (a portion of dump fees will go to the town) and the town will have some level of oversight regarding operations. The town has decided the headache of taking on management complaints from wealthy residents who moved in next to a dump is worth the cash. The Landfill managers must be thrilled.
AS I'm going to say going forward, here is one "version" of the story in the Camera.

Dan, I'm guessing Erie already gets plenty of complaint calls regarding the landfills on CR5.
I'm sure the Vista Ridge residents, for the most part, don't realize there are 2 entities operating, one on the east side of CR5 and one on the west. One in Erie, one not. Thus, all complaints go to the city, rather than some to the city and some to Weld.
Might as well take the revenue if you're already dealing with the complaints.
Title of post is redundant.
