Adams Sanitation, which has 9,000 customers in the north end of Santa Rosa County, has submitted a permit to provide garbage pickup in the south end of the county.

The permit, filed Wednesday, was submitted with a letter challenging the county’s “exclusive franchise” agreement with Waste Pro. According to the letter, written by Adams’ legal representative Nathan Boyles, the ordinance assuring franchise exclusivity was adopted by the county June 9, 2011.

Here are some of the Memorial Day ceremonies are planned for Santa Rosa County.
