KGNC-AM | Show 6.23.26 Hour Two: Let Me Remind You What You Said Then And What We Are Hearing Now

In the second hour, MJ continues his thoughts about the weeks after the Landfill Fire, what officials said they did early - including calling a ‘specialist’ immediately after arriving at the landfill the afternoon of May 17. One official said the heavy equipment was put to service to work on the fire. According to the TCEQ, a landfill employee said the equipment used to cover the landfill as required by law at the end of the day has been broken down most of the month. Maybe May 17 was just a good day where everything was working? The City Council today is most likely going to approve the purchase of a $116,500 piece of equipment specifically for the landfill, to be used to apply Alternative Daily Cover. The agenda notes this purchase is “Budgeted For.” Great timing? Coincidence? You be the judge.
