The city of Mineral Wells is exploring options in the conversion from bag service to poly carts in its solid waste collection contract with Waste Connections.
âWhen I moved here in 2007, I found it very strange that we didnât have trash carts,â Mineral Wells Mayor Regan Johnson said. âTo me, this is something very basic and a very long time coming.â
The city is also looking into including the Convenience Center cost into the monthly rate instead of imposing a gate charge for residents.
Two options were presented to the city council Tuesday night, however, no action was taken.

The Parker County Special Utility District requested a contract extension with the city of Mineral Wells this week to receive funding for future infrastructure improvements.
The Parker County SUD supplies drinking water to residents and businesses in the rural areas of Brock, Dennis, Greenwood and an area near Millsap and Bennett in Parker and Palo Pinto counties.
âIn the 18 years Iâve worked here, we have grown and it went from an old farming community to a growing subdivision housing area and as such, it was made abundantly clear to us that our water supply was lacking,â Parker County SUD General Manager Dakota Tawater said to the city council on Tuesday. âThe Brock school district was about to spend $700,000 in fire suppression equipment because we lacked the pressure and the quality to support the school.â
