ITEM TITLE:

Title

Motion 22-494, approving Snohomish County Public Works Solid Waste Division Service Fee Schedule

body

DEPARTMENT:  Public Works

 

ORIGINATOR:  Lori Ericsson (White)

 

EXECUTIVE RECOMMENDATION:  Approved by Ken Klein 11/17/22

 

PURPOSE: Approval of Motion updating the Solid Waste Service Fee Schedule

 

BACKGROUND: The Solid Waste Service Fee Schedule has not been updated since 2012. Solid Waste is concurrently proposing amendments to sections 7.35 and 7.41 of the Snohomish County Code that set minimum intermodal container weight standards for the residual reclamation waste (RRW) program.  The fee schedule update sets a minimum container weight of 23 tons for RRW delivered to the intermodal yard.  The rate of $65/ton stays the same, however, the code change establishes the minimum weight.  Establishing a minimum weight will maximize intermodal container availability and save 620 containers per year.  Additionally, increased rates for vactor disposal will cover both additional capital and operations costs of the facility. Request approval of the motion to amend the Solid Waste Service Fee Schedule for implementation on January 1, 2023.

DEPARTMENT FISCAL IMPACT NOTES:  If service fee schedule is approved and the concurrent changes proposed to ordinance chapters 7.35 and 7.41 take effect January 1, 2023, additional revenue is anticipated to be received from RRW customers who underfill their intermodal containers with the minimum system weight. An additional revenue is also anticipated from vactor system customers.
