REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND
State law requires a public hearing before certain types of fees
are increased by the Board of Supervisors. County Counsel has
advised us that .the Solid Waste Enforcement and Planning Fees are
subject to this. requirement. Additionally, State law requires
posting of the hearing at least 10 days in advance.
Board orders and: resolutions for the fee increase to be heard at
the December 20„ 1988, meeting will be sent to the Board in the
agenda packet for that meeting. The increase in Solid Waste
Planning Fees is' due to an increase in staff time associated with
the County Solid Waste Management Plan Revision and other Solid
Waste Plan related activities. The increase in fees for solid
waste enforcement are due to increased enforcement. costs for
solid waste disposal sites and solid waste sto age problems.
