Re: Work session agenda Item
At my last meeting with the Board, we briefly discussed the services received from the
US Department of Agriculture Wildlife Services Program. They provide starling control
for us at Knott Landfill, as well as a variety of other services throughout the County. It
was suggested that it may be helpful if representatives of the program were to meet with
the Board to present the program and services that they provide. We are on your work
session agenda for this purpose.
Funding for the program comes from the Department of Solid Waste budget, the Oregon
Department of Agriculture, and the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife along with
some contribution from specific entities that receive direct services. The proposed
budgeted amount from the Department of Solid Waste for next fiscal year is $102,000.00
