COUNCIL MINUTES FEBRUARY 10, 1997 On the taking issue in going from a four- or five -hauler system to a one -hauler system, Mr. Sullivan stated it is his opinion this action does not constitute a taking. He noted the City has wide discretion on how to organize solid waste collection and the idea of condemnation, in this case, would be different, not physical taking of property but, rather, based on the concept that changing the system will interfere with contracts which haulers currently have with customers. However, this is dependent upon the City issuing the hauler a license and the City has the right to change its system. It was noted this item will be voted on at the February 24, 1997 Council meeting.
