Despite some delays due to the pandemic, a grant-funded project for a new Recycle Livingston facility is back on track.
At a recent virtual meeting, the Howell City Council voted to authorize the mayor to sign the 2020 Recycling and Organics Infrastructure Grant agreement between the City and the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes and Energy for the Recycle Livingston facility at 170 Catrell Street.
Toward the beginning of the pandemic last April, Council voted to partner with Recycle Livingston on the grant. The review process was said to be slowed by the pandemic but the State has since officially notified Recycle Livingston and the City that they have been awarded $282,504 for a new facility at the current location.

A lawsuit filed by a recycling company against the City of Howell has been withdrawn.
According to a release from the city, Padnos Howell Inc., a metal recycling company, has agreed to dismiss its appeal filed in Livingston County Circuit Court against the City of Howell regarding its recycling operation at 645 Lucy Road. The suit was filed after the cityâs Board of Zoning Appeals denied two variances, one of which would have allowed the company to operate an open-air metal shredder, as opposed to placing it inside an enclosure.
The Howell Planning Commission had previously approved the plans for the operation, including the shredder, subject to the approval of the variances by the Board of Zoning Appeals.
