Klickitat County Commission Chair Dan Christopher revealed during the panel’s meeting on Tuesday that Republic Services has lost another large contract for the regional landfill in Roosevelt. During a discussion of a funding request from the White Salmon Valley Pool Metropolitan Park District as that group continues its effort to build a swimming pool, Christopher said that last week Republic Services lost a contract for taking refuse from Mason County after losing a similar contract with Spokane County two weeks ago and with Skagit County during the summer. Christopher noted during the meeting that Klickitat County has been receiving tipping fees from all those contracts. He says that’s a large amount of revenue the County won’t have next year, and they will have to re-evaluate their revenue forecasts for 2024. Commissioner Jacob Anderson said they will have to have some very difficult discussions on their budgets as a result of the contract losses.
