SMA approves advancing landfill negotiation process

When it comes to a final decision by the Sallisaw Municipal Authority on the unsolicited offer to purchase the Sallisaw Municipal Landfill facility and the city sanitation collection services, the answer is short, unlike the process itself. Expect it to be a long process, which echoes board chairman Ernie Martens’ warning on May 8: “This is not a decision that’s gonna be made in a week, I can promise you that. We need to go through this process. If it takes two months, it’ll take two months.”
