This week, Town of The Pas Mayor Andre Murphy spoke with CJAR about several ongoing community projects.

In the interview, Murphy also addressed the ongoing issues with the recycling center, noting that it may still take a few months before the facility becomes operational again.

In 2025, the town recycled 395 metric tons of waste at a cost of $1,050 per metric ton. This amounts to about 10% of the town's waste stream, which is currently being diverted to the landfill.

Murphy emphasized that getting the recycling center back up and running is a top priority for the Tri-Community Recycling Board, which is working hard to re-staff the facility as soon as possible.

The next council meeting will take place on March 23rd.
