The Richland County Solid Waste Management Authority board approved the hiring of an environmental officer last week, in the hopes that it would help cut down on illegal dumping throughout the county. The roots of Mansfield's current trash-hauling issues date back more than two decades when the public hauling option was eliminated. In April 1998, Mansfield City Council voted to abolish municipal trash service, dissolving what remained of its sanitation department, which was still serving 2,800 customers.
