DIRECTOR/PROJECT MANAGER reviewed <br />a Staff Report and explained that as of July 1, 2017 the Solid Waste <br />Department was forced to close its hazardous waste facilities, and <br />recycling programs due to the State being unable to approve the <br />Capital budget for the next biennium which provides funding for the <br />program. She stated that the Solid Waste Advisory Committee has met <br />and recommends revising the tipping fee to add $3.50 per ton to <br />cover the costs to reopen the facility. She stated that they would <br />like the rates to take effect starting 10/1/2017 so they can re-open <br />the hazardous waste facility on 10/2/2017. <br /> <br />THERE BEING NO ONE IN ATTENDANCE REQUESTING TO TESTIFY, THE PUBLIC <br />PORTION OF THE HEARING WAS CLOSED. <br /> <br />CHAIRMAN JEWELL questioned what they are projecting to raise with <br />this fee increase. MS. JOHNSON stated that they are projecting to <br />raise approximately $76,000.00. COMMISSIONER OSIADACZ questioned <br />what the plan is if the funds are brought back to the County. MS. <br />JOHNSON stated that it will depend on how it effects the Solid Waste <br />Program and the Governor’s budget, and at that time they will re- <br />visit the fees. She noted a typo in the Resolution and stated it <br />reads the new minimum tipping fee is $6.02 but it’s actually $6.03
