Summary

The commission adopted an ordinance regulating collection, disposal and destruction of garbage and rubbish, established a Division of Solid Waste, set sewer/water rates, fees and penalties, and repealed ordinance No. 215, series of 2024.

The Board of City Commissioners adopted a comprehensive ordinance to regulate the collection, disposal and destruction of garbage, rubbish and related waste materials; establish a Division of Solid Waste; and set associated tap fees, installation charges, service charges, industrial pretreatment charges, penalties and interest. The ordinance also establishes sewer and water rates and repeals Ordinance No. 215, Series of 2024.

The ordinance was moved, seconded and adopted by voice vote; the transcript records the title and that the motion carried "Aye." The transcript does not include the ordinance text or the specific new rates, fees, or penalty amounts. The action replaces the cited 2024 ordinance and consolidates solid-waste and related utility provisions under the new ordinance.

Because the transcript excerpt does not provide the numeric rate table or a detailed schedule of fees, readers should consult the enacted ordinance text or city staff for the exact fee and rate schedules and for the effective date of the new charges.
