It's about TIME, This county of ours has to be the filthiest county in the tri-state area by far, And the state of ohio as well, It's embarrassing to have visitors from out of state to see this county. Officials need to drive the county and see all the trash that people dumps into the creeks, and its been there for years, and its getting worst everyday, The people with garbage, cars, and appliances in their front yards is sickening to see. The officials need to team up with the sheriff's and the EPA to start enforcing the law and hit'em where it hurts, the wallet, We the people of lawrence county challange the official to clean up our county. PASS ON THIS MESSAGE.
