Geauga County Commissioner Ralph Spidalieri was selected Feb. 27 to serve as president of the Geauga-Trumbull Solid Waste District Board of Directors.
“I am able to get a lot of good stuff done,” Spidalieri said regarding the reason he believes he was chosen for the role.
Spidalieri has worked with both Geauga and Trumbull County commissioners, as well as Director Jennifer Jones to get long-awaited grants approved for Geauga County townships, villages and the City of Chardon, he said in a statement March 12.
“I have continued to push for Geauga to have services available to dispose of various waste products and have special collection days,” Spidalieri said, adding it’s nice to be able to return some of the revenue back to local communities.
“When we are dealing with these larger counties, sometimes it becomes a really difficult time to be able to get those funds transferred back in,” he said. “They just seem to always have bigger projects. To be able to do that is huge.”
Spidalieri also noted the success of the new solid waste facility located at 12685 Merritt Road in Chardon, adding he hopes to continue working with communities to support their needs and expand the district’s programs.
