<br />• Rates for refuse collection and recycling should be going up by no more than 2% per <br />year. <br /> <br />• The haulers have asked for a pretty hefty increase in our subscription yard waste service <br />($48 per year currently – asking for $72). We have asked them for better supporting data <br />before we will agree to any change. <br /> <br />• They have also asked for increased to Schedule B. This is a listing of rates for pickup of <br />additional bulky items over the three per year currently allowed. According to our <br />records, this only involves about 40 additional items in a year, but we are looking at this <br />as part of our bulky item utilization. <br /> <br />• We have asked for the creation of a townhome rate at a level below our standard rates <br />due to efficiencies in collection due to higher densities. This can then be offered to <br />associations to see if they want to join our program. <br /> <br />• The County has asked us to include provisions regarding the addition of multi-family <br />recycling. We aren’t sure this makes sense in our contract, but we are asking for the <br />cooperation of the haulers to help us evaluate/resolve this situation in the future. (Note: <br />We may only have to strengthen our ordinances for licensed hauling and then seek the <br />County’s assistance in enforcement.) <br /> <br />We are hopeful we will have a final document available for Wednesday’s meeting. If you have <br />comments or questions in the meantime, please let us know.
