Northern Tree Service proposes waste wood processing plant in Springfield’s Bay neighborhood
Northern Tree Service Inc., of Palmer, is proposing to purchase four tax-title junkyard properties along the Bay and Tapley street corridor for $701,700 to convert them into a facility that makes mulch and other products out of clean waste wood. Northern Tree Service submitted the sole bid for the vacant properties by Thursday’s deadline. It will be referred for evaluation by a city review committee, said Thomas Mathews, project manager for the city’s Office of Planning and Economic Development.
