Open since mid-July and funded with grants from Keep Texas Beautiful and grocery giant H.E.B., the Ingleside Recycling Center at 1580 Fourth St. hasn’t had electrical service. That has rendered machines used for baling piles of recyclable plastic and cardboard useless. Now, the City Manager confirms a contractor has been hired to hook up power that should be connected by the end of this month. Bad weather has also plagued the facility that is closed if there’s a heavy rain since the yard is dirt and it quickly becomes mud, threatening to create a situation where a resident of San Patricio County may get stuck. As it is, the facility operates with limited days and hours, as seen here.
