The latest, from Oct 20: The council was scheduled to consider the Board of Public Works recommendation to approve the Gering and Kimball Landfill Interlocal. The agenda text does not include the term or dollar value, but it confirms an interlocal landfill arrangement was still awaiting council action on October 20, 2026. That is a useful signal for landfill operations, shared services, or contract administration. The practical next conversation is with the city and landfill partners about scope, term, and operating responsibilities.
