During its Feb. 22 meeting, the Helena City Commission approved a resolution establishing goals to reduce the amount of solid waste transferred from within its borders to the Lewis and Clark County Landfill by 50% by 2040, with an interim goal of 35% reduction by 2030.

The resolution goes on to state the goals are “not intended to be final goals for the City, and the City Commission will revisit these goals every 5 years, starting in 2027.”
