9ozc <br />PROPOSAL <br />Orange County Board of Commissioners <br />Principles for Assuming Responsibility for Solid Waste Management <br />December 8, 1998 <br />IF <br />1. Solid waste continues to be managed as an enterprise operation; <br />2. The Greene Tract remains a landfill asset; <br />3. There are no restrictions on acquisition of additional acreage at the current landfill; <br />4. All entities continue to work through the LOG until such time as the County assumes overall responsibility for <br />solid waste management to develop options for: materials recovery, construction & demolition disposal, and a <br />transfer station (to include examination of reconfiguring property at the Eubanks Road landfill to accommodate <br />one or more of these facilities); <br />5. The Towns of Carrboro, Chapel Hill, and Hillsborough remain committed partners to make an enterprise <br />operation economically viable; <br />6. All community benefits are paid through the landfill enterprise (unless Carrboro and Chapel Hill agree to <br />earmark a portion of one cent sales taxes for their share of community benefits); <br />7. Reduction of solid waste and the economic viability of solid waste facilities/operations are made compatible; <br />8. All parties approve an Interlocal Agreement after the current draft has been revised to incorporate <br />modifications (negotiated by representatives of each governing board); <br />9. The County retains the freedom to implement fees; and <br />10. The County is not expected to use general funds to underwrite overall solid waste management activities: <br />1 M_,1W <br />1. The County will assume solid waste management responsibility no earlier than October 1, 1999, to include <br />current and future operations; <br />2. The County will accept transfer of all Chapel Hill solid waste management employees; <br />3. The Board of Commissioners shall approve the 1999 -2000 solid waste management operating budget in June, <br />1999; <br />4. Until the County assumes responsibility, the LOG shall continue to direct solid waste management, as in the <br />past, including operating by consensus; <br />5. Each government shall appoint two representatives to a Solid Waste Management Advisory Commission, <br />pursuant to an adopted Interlocal Agreement, which shall succeed the LOG and begin meeting after adoption of <br />the 1999 -2000 budget; <br />6. Solid waste collection/transportation decisions will remain the prerogative of each local government entity; <br />7. University representatives will be invited to participate in discussions about planning and operation of the solid <br />waste management system and facilities, even if the University chooses noL to commit to participation in the <br />solid waste management system. <br />8. The County will pursue a conceptual revenue structure that: <br />• finances core operations (MRF, MSW and C &D Landfills) through tipping fees <br />• finances collection/transportation activities through property taxes and collection charges <br />• finances reduction /recycling through tipping fees to the extent practical, with the balance from availability <br />fees <br />FURTHERMORE <br />The County is willing to entertain assumption by any of the other municipal partners of the lead role in solid waste <br />management subject to the principles and conditions enumerated above. <br />
