Information

Agenda Item Text:

Adopt Resolution 15-09 to increase the $55.00 a ton Tipping Fee by $2.75 to $57.75 for Fiscal Year 2015-16 effective July 1, 2015 and increase an additional $2.75 a ton to $60.50 for Fiscal Year 2016-17 effective July 1, 2016.

Background:

This proposed action to increase the user fees for the Solid Waste system is brought before you to cover the costs of operating the system.  The RRAB met and voted to recommend to the BOS that the cost to dispose of refuse be increased.

Department's Next Steps (if approved):

The approved item will be presented to the public for a 60 day notice period.  In addition, customers at each Solid Waste facility will be informed of the upcoming fee changes during this time span.  After the end of these 60 days, on July 1, 2015, the fee will increase.

Impact of NOT Approving/Alternatives:

If not approved, revenue will not support expenses and the department will have to seek alternative funding sources to cover Solid Waste Department shortfalls.
