Agenda Item Text:
Adopt Resolution 14-16, authorizing a $1.50 increase to the Solid Waste rate for Fiscal Year 2014-15 from $53.50 to $55.00 per ton tipping fee, effective August 8, 2014.
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 Rate Review and Advisory Board met and voted to recommend to the Board of Supervisors that the cost to dispose of refuse be increased by $1.50 per ton.
Department's Next Steps (if approved):
The approved item will be presented to the public for a 30 day public notice period. In addition to formal public notice, customers at each Solid Waste Facility will be informed of the upcoming fee changes, during this 30 day time span. At the end of these 30 days: August 8 2014 the fee increase will take effect.
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.
