June 14 1989 County SUBJECT: Tonnage Fee Increase for Solid Waste Planning SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION RECOMMENDATION: Following a public hearing, adopt a resolution (copy attached) that will increase the solid waste planning tonnage fee to $0. 50 per ton effective July 1 , 1989, through June 30 , 1990 . FINANCIAL IMPACT: This increase in the Solid Waste Planning Fee will allow the Community Development Department to recover the costs of consultants, additional staff , and decreased revenue due reduced annual tonnage. The increase in fees will generate approximately $415 , 000 for fiscal year 1989-90. BACKGROUND: on June 13 , 1989 , the Board of Supervisors set June 27, 1989, as the date for a hearing on this fee increase. The notice was published and posted in accordance with State law. The increase in solid waste planning tonnage fees is due to increased solid waste planning activities this fiscal year and the decrease in tonnage from 930,000 to 875,000 annually. Increased revenue will fund the solid Waste Manager position and preparation of the Environmental Impact Report for the . County Solid Waste Management Plan. The fee for fiscal year 1988-89 is 20 cents per ton. The solid waste collectors and disposal companies have been notified of this hearing and the proposed fee increase. k4=S.CONTINUED ON ATTACHMENT: _ YES SIGNATU RECOMMENDATION OF COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR RF OMME ATION OF; BOARD OMMITTEE APPROVE OTHER SIGNATURE(S): ACTION OF BOARD ON June 27, 1989 APPROVED AS RECOMMENDED X OTHER The Board of Supervisors on June 13, 1989 set this date for a hearing on the proposed fee increase for solid waste planning.
