Bradley County Commissioners Bill Winters, Terry Caywood, Robert Rominger, Santek Environmental Vice-President of Marketing Cheryl Dunson, Bradley County Commission Chairman Louie Alford, Santek Environmental President Eddie Caylor, and Commissioner Cliff Eason.CLEVELAND, Tenn. — Bradley County’s Farmers Market North has received the last of its startup funding, which will be used for landscaping around the recently built pavilion on Urbane Road.
Santek Environmental, which operates the county landfill, recently donated $5,000 to the project so the final stages of groundwork could be completed in time for the market’s opening next year.
“This is a good thing for this end of town,” said Cheryl Dunson, vice president of marketing for Santek Environmental. “I’m glad we could help out with it.”
Santek Environmental also worked with the county at the project’s beginning, said Dunson, who said the waste management company provided $10,000 worth of grading work for the site when ground was broken in May 2010.
The county needs a good rural market, said Bradley County Commission Chairman Louie Alford, who has been a key proponent of the market.
