Tim Shea, Superintendent of Waste Management Services, presented information on a city-wide
cleanup for September 17, 2005.
Kincaid now present at 5:02 p.m.
The city-wide cleanup is to be held on September 17, 2005 from 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Mr.
Shea is proposing a fee of $1 per load and $1 per tire or appliance not to exceed four each per
household for the cleanup. Mr. Shea reported that during last year's cleanup, 2,163 loads were
hauled to the site in ten hours, with an average weight per load of 105 pounds and average
disposal cost per drop of $3.38. The cost to provide the cleanup, including wages and benefits,
was $7,314.41. Mr. Shea reviewed the cost to provide the cleanup service to the Church Row
and Chautauqua Park Neighborhood Associations. It was the consensus of the council to move
forward with the proposed fee schedule and Mr. Shea was asked to bring the announcement of
the cleanup date and time back to the council next week for review.
Mr. Shea asked that a Task Force be appointed by Mayor Hurley for solid waste.
With no further business before the council, it was moved by Gunderson, seconded by Clark that
the meeting be adjourned at 5:12 p.m. Ayes: Seven. Motion carried.
