Lewis County Commissioners Brian Peery, left, and Jerry Ashmore, right, discuss a handout from Lewis County Mayor Jonah Keltner which warns of a Solid Waste Fiscal Cliff. "This is the fifth month in a row that the County Commission has been presented with a proposed funding source to cover the upcoming $111,500 annual budget shortfall in the Solid Wast account," the mayor's report states. Later in the meeting, the proposal failed with 12 voting no, one voting yes and one passing.
