Greenco Environmental president Tim Lesko apologized profusely for odors emanating from his company's composting operation on Roger Brown Drive at a public hearing held Monday night at the Barnesville Civic Center.
Tim Lesko addresses some 50 concerned citizens at Monday's forum. His wife, Melia, is at his right. The Leskos will be in magistrate court at 3 p.m. Thursday regarding a nuisance citation.

























meat, fruit, vegetables...it all rots. They call it deCOMPOSiTion, which is where the word compost comes from.
Hmmm, were you asleep when the INDUSTRIAL park came about? You know, where INDUSTRY locates?
Memo: You DON'T live in Peachtree City or McDonough. None of those type of industries will locate here due to poor transportation infrastructure. Better be happy to get anything here to pay taxes and provide jobs. Aldora isn't long for this world.
Of course the CAVE (Citizens Against Virtually Everything) would complain about anything foolish enough to want to locate here.
Or maybe the folks near Bhopal, India would agree with you the jobs were worth the risk-well maybe not since many of them are dead.
Hey, we just need jobs here in Lamar Co, not necessarily need to live here.
One thing is for sure, if we keep luring stellar industries like Greenco and the soon to be polluting co-generation plant, we will NEVER have a chance to get decent places here.
