A story in Thursday's morning edition incorrectly reported details of an agreement between Roanoke and Roanoke County on fees at the new regional landfill.
Private haulers will be charged a higher dumping fee than the localities that are on the authority that will own and operate the landfill. And because the landfill will be in Roanoke County, the county also will be allowed to charge a "host locality fee." Roanoke also wants the option to charge a host locality fee, because a garbage transfer station will be built in the city.
Only private haulers, and localities that aren't on the landfill authority, will be charged the host locality fee.
