Demand hasn’t been as high as anticipated for what Oak Harbor staff call “Poo-Cheetos.”
Mick Monken, the city’s interim public works director, told city council members last week that he wanted to move forward with creating a “biosolids sustainability plan” that would offer several specific options for dealing with the nutrient-rich, dry material that comes from the city’s sewage treatment plant.
They Said It
Councilmember Joel Servatius said during last week’s workshop that he brought a bucketful for his garden and his Labrador retriever loved it. The odor went away after a few days, he added.
In January, Councilmember Jim Woessner criticized the marketing plan materials for its steep price tag, brevity and lack of specifics. Last week, he referenced the ongoing problem with the dryer and wondered whether it contributed to the odor of the dried material.
