Jackson Township Board of Supervisors held a special meeting on February 20, 2025, at 1:30 p.m. at the Municipal Building to discuss a proposal by Mr. Aiken to establish a Waste Transfer Station at 105 McQuiston Drive in Jackson Center, where garbage from a newly obtained Hermitage, PA contract would be sorted from recycling materials, with garbage destined for a landfill in Lowellville, Ohio, and recyclables for a facility near Pittsburgh. Three supervisors attended—Chairman George H. McIntire (term expires 12/31/29), Gene Swartz (term expires 12/31/25), and Jerry S. Heckman via phone (term expires 12/31/27)—along with Solicitor Raymond Bogaty and Zoning Officer Sandy Bachman. Citizens raised concerns about noise, odor, truck traffic, rodents, property value impacts, and questioned the logic of transporting waste approximately 20 miles northeast to Jackson Center before routing it west to Ohio or to Pittsburgh, rather than developing the facility in Hermitage or Lawrence County. The meeting adjourned at 2:00 p.m. with no formal action recorded.
