Mayor Mitchell received a kind letter from a citizen offering assistance in our Recycling Center efforts. Kent Willoughby recently presented Mayor Ed Mitchell and General Services Director, Don Stallions, with a personal donation in the amount of $250.00 to go towards the recycling efforts here in Blount County. Mayor Mitchell says, "We are grateful for Mr. Willoughby and his wife for their generosity. In partnership with the Blount County Highway Department, we are preparing the site location at the Operations Center on McArthur Road and we hope to have the Recycling Center open in the next few weeks."
