President Mairhi Trickett welcomed members
to last week's meeting of the Rotary Club to hear one of their members
Councillor Ron Smith explain the operation of the new recycling centre to be put in
place at Mansfield Road at a cost of £300,000. In a detailed talk he
showed how the operation works for the benefit of workers and users alike.
He also touched on the plans for waste disposal when the Langlee centre at
Galashiels closes and waste will have to be transported outwith the
Region. The talk prompted many questions and a lively discussion after
which Bob Kellett gave the vote of thanks.
