Chaffee Landfill and the Town of Sardinia maintain a partnership that provides the Town of Sardinia with monetary benefits (revenue sharing) in return for the privilege of operating the landfill.

If Chaffee Landfill were not operating the landfill, the Town of Sardinia would not receive the benefit of revenue sharing.
