AGENDA REQUEST & STAFF REPORT
For Board Business Meeting of June 27, 2012
Please see directions for completing this document on the next page.
DATE: June 20, 2012
FROM: Timm Schimke. Solid Waste 317-3177
TITLE OF AGENDA ITEM:
Consideration of Board Signature of Resolution No. 2012-093, establishing solid waste disposal fee
waiver amounts for the 2012-2013 fiscal year.
PUBLIC HEARING ON THIS DATE? No
BACKGROUND AND POLICY IMPLICATIONS:
The Board of County Commissioners has established a policy that allows for disposal fee waivers for
qualfying non-profit organizations in the business of reselling used merchandise (thrift stores). Such
organizations benefit the community and divert materials from the landfill. The policy provides for up
to $5,000 in fee waivers per individual organization per year with a total amount of fee waivers
allocated to all participating organizations capped at $30,000 each year, adjusted annually for inflation.
This year we are proposing a total fee waiver of $31 ,000.00 The attached spread sheet shows the
allocation for the current fiscal year, and usage through May, the amounts requested from the thrift
stores, and Department recommendations for the 2012-2013 fiscal year.
FISCAL IMPLICATIONS:
The policy does not require any funds to be allocated or expended by the Department of Solid Waste.
The fee waivers represent unrealized or lost revenues.
RECOMMENDATION & ACTION REQUESTED:
Over the years, most organizations have shown great appreciation of the program by making concerted
efforts to minimize their use of the waivers by recycling as much as possible, and minimizing the
amount of non-saleable items they ultimately deal with. The Department of Solid Waste recommends
approval of Resolution No. 2012-093.
ATTENDANCE: Timm Schimke.
