Minutes - Regular Meeting <br /> Solid Waste Advisory Board <br /> May 4, 2006 <br /> Approved June 1 , 2006 <br /> Vickers states that we have beat this to death before and came to a recommendation . <br /> Apparently the recommendation was not acceptable to the commissioners and they <br /> want to do something different . <br /> Wilson states that the Board has not been explicit about what they do want . <br /> Vickers suggests adding a release form to reduce County ' s risk <br /> Wilson notes that taking time to get people to read and sign this at the centers is not <br /> practical use of resources . <br /> Sassaman states that we need to tell the commissioners we need more money to <br /> operate the convenience centers . <br /> Wilson states that I can figure that out if I knew what level of scavenging they <br /> wanted . I don' t want to dwell on this but I did want you to know that it is still an <br /> issue . <br /> Hzvy 57 Convenience Center Wilson states that there has been no change . <br /> Smith asks when will it close ? <br /> Wilson states that the new owner has agreed to indefinite periods of two months <br /> extensions until there is a buyer or it' s rezoned . We could get a two-month notice at <br /> any time . <br /> Technotrash Can Pollock states that we received a query about collecting all media - <br /> cds , videotapes, etc . There is a company that will collect all the media and we pay <br /> postage for the box . There is a market it for it . <br /> Sassaman states that it would be a good opportunity for Staples or Office Depot . <br /> Wilson asks what do they do with them? <br /> Pollock states that some stuff gets deconstructed . <br /> Wilson suggests that this is incorporated into the solid waste management plan <br /> discussion . It could be another material diverted . <br /> Vickers asks [Blair] when you did the waste characterization was this classed out ? <br /> Pollock replies no . We didn' t contemplate that . <br /> 6 <br />
