Several Broward municipalities are in a fight to recover more than $100 million in money and assets accumulated over the years for solid waste disposal.
As of Tuesday, a 25-year agreement with the county that dictated how cities disposed of their garbage comes to an end, and the cities fear the money they have paid for waste to energy plants and tipping fees will be lost to the county.
In an effort to halt the process, at least 10 Broward municipalities — including Weston, Hollywood, Fort Lauderdale and Sunrise — have banded together to sue the county. More are expected to join in the fight.
