The High Point Enterprise reports Randolph County “is working on acquiring the necessary permits for a regional landfill. Such a regional landfill could draw interest from municipalities such as Durham, High Point and, of course, Greensboro.

Interesting, especially now that Greensboro City Council member Jim Kee is suggesting—- no doubt with prompting from regular council speaker-from-the-floor Leon Nutez —- that the city locate CICO’s garbage disposal technology out at the former Guilford County prison farm. We know already that fellow council member Robbie Perkins champions the so-called regional solution.

CICO claims its manufacturing facility would provide 250 jobs. For some reason, I’m skeptical.
