The recent rain has benefited Lake Lanier, but all that water has created quite an expense for Hall County when it hits the landfill. The Hall County landfill treatment plant, which treats water that touches contaminated landfill waste, is broken and the Board of Commissioners is likely to vote at its meeting on Wednesday to try to refinance its current loan for a new system. Ken Rearden, Public Works and Utilities director, broke the news that he needs about $1.1 million for a new system at the commission work session Monday.
