City landfill to open on first and third Saturdays

The city of Cairo is opening its landfill on Saturdays, once again, for the convenience of local residents.
After a decline in use, the landfill had been shuttered on Saturdays but, beginning this month, the landfill will open on the first and third Saturdays of each month until further notice, according to Dana Barfield of the city public works department.
The Saturday hours are 8 a.m. until noon.
According to Ms. Barfield, if it rains on the Friday before or is raining on the first or third Saturday, the landfill will not be open.
