Supreme Court of Arkansas
Steven Hedrick and X-Dumpsters v. City of Holiday Island
December 4, 20252025 Ark. 194
Summary
The court held that the Arkansas Solid Waste Management Act does not authorize Holiday Island to exclude alternative providers of supplemental solid-waste-removal services merely because the city contracted with a single provider for its waste-management system. Because the city lacked statutory authority to enact the exclusionary portion of its ordinance, the court reversed the dismissal and remanded without reaching the constitutional monopoly issue.
