FY 2009-10 Recommended Budget BOCC Follow Up Solid Waste Convenience Center Statistics During the May 12 budget work session, the BOCC requested additional information regarding user volumes, ownership and anomalies of the County's solid waste convenience centers. Currently of the five (5) centers, two are owned by the County and the remaining three on leased property. The three lease agreements (Bradshaw Quarry Road, High Rock Road and Walnut Grove Church Road) contain a 90-day termination clause. The High Rock Road lease has a renewal provision of ten consecutive five-year terms; presently nine remain. With the exception of the Bradshaw Quarry Road Center, all are full service centers offering household waste and bulk waste disposal as well as recycling and reuse opportunities. Due the space constraints, the Bradshaw Quarry Center accepts clean wood by depositing on the ground pending manual collection by a Sanitation Collector and does not offer reuse opportunities (Salvage Shed) or yard waste collection. The Board expressed concerns regarding the possibility of Sanitation employees working every weekend. Leave (scheduled and unanticipated) requests especially for weekend periods would be fulfilled by available non-permanent and/or reassigned permanent staff. Currently leave is typically approved and honored except when extraordinary circumstances occur.
