Grant County commissioners looking for interested citizens to serve on Solid Waste Advisory Committee

EPHRATA — The Grant County Board of Commissioners announce today that they are looking for two interested citizens of Grant County to serve on the Solid Waste Advisory Committee.

There is no compensation for attending meetings.
