For Board Business Meeting of June 24, 2009
Please see directions for completing this document on the next page.
DATE: June 15, 2009
FROM: Timm Schimke Solid Waste 317 -3177
TITLE OF AGENDA ITEM:
Consideration of Board Signature of Resolution 2009 -060 Establishing Solid Waste Disposal Fee
Waiver Amounts for Fiscal Year 2009 -2010
PUBLIC HEARING ON THIS DATE? NO.
BACKGROUND AND POLICY IMPLICATIONS:
The Board of County Commissioners has established a policy that allows for the waiver of solid wa ite
disposal fees for non - profit orginizations that are in the business of reselling used merchandise. These
organizations provide a benefit to the community and their selling of used merchandise keeps materials
out of the landfill and helps the Department of Solid Waste reach state established diversion goals.
This resolution establishes fee waiver amounts for Fiscal Year 2009 -2010 that fall within the
restrictions of the policy of up to $5000 per organization, and an overal limit of $30,000 for the
program per year. The attached table shows the current years credits and usage as well as the proposed
credit for next fiscal year.
FISCAL IMPLICATIONS:
The policy results in a loss of revenue to the Department that is expected to be $28,200.00 in the 00 -10
fiscal year
RECOMMENDATION & ACTION REQUESTED:
All of the participants in the program appreciate the benefit that they receive and work to minimize the
amount of materials that are sent to the landfill. I recommend signature of Resolution 2009 -060.
ATTENDANCE: Timm Schimke.
