Topic: 

A Resolution to Consider Increasing the Construction Demolition Debris Fee at the Corral Farm Landfill from $45.00 a Ton to $46.00 a Ton Effective July 1, 2006

Topic Description:

During the review of the Fiscal Year 2007 Budget, the Board of Supervisors expressed support for efforts to remove roadside trash and litter from within Fauquier County.  The Board discussed the possibility of increasing the rate to dispose of Construction and Demolition Debris (CD&D) by $1.00 a ton in order to generate a recurring income source to support an intensified environmental clean-up program.  The County Administrator will be assessing various options to staff the new clean-up program.

On May 11, 2006, a public hearing was held to consider the proposed increase in the tipping fees for CD&D materials.  At that time the staff also indicated the CD&D tonnage now being received was currently under previous estimates. The Board may want to discuss options for the proposed effective date for the small increase proposed.

Requested Action of the Board of Supervisors: 

Consider adoption of the attached resolution.

Financial Impacts Analysis:

It is anticipated that the fee increase will generate $100,000 annually.
