2 <br />other interested parties to produce appropriate changes to the draft ordinance, based on their input <br />and previous direction from the BOCC. Among other points, the accompanying staff memo lays out <br />the major features of the ordinance, feedback received from parties that would be affected by the <br />ordinance, a discussion of enforcement issues, and a proposed timeline for implementation if the <br />BOCC feels that they are ready to pursue adoption of the ordinance as revised. <br />FINANCIAL IMPACT: Details of the financial implications related to adoption of the ordinance <br />are discussed in the Solid Waste Facilities Master Plan report (agenda item #2 on this October 1 <br />work session). The Manager's Recommended 2001-02 operating budget for the Solid <br />Waste/Landfill Operations Fund included funding for the C&D Education and Enforcement <br />Specialist position recommended by the C&D Waste Recycling Task Force to implement this <br />ordinance and the accompanying education efforts. The BOCC elected to postpone consideration <br />of the creation of that permanent position itself until there was an opportunity to review the <br />recyclable materials ordinance in more detail than could be achieved during the June 2001 budget <br />work sessions. However, funding for the position and associated costs is already available in the <br />FY 2001-02 approved budget. <br />RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends that the Board provide additional input to <br />staff regarding the ordinance, set a date for the public hearing, and authorize the creation of a <br />permanent C&D Education and Enforcement Specialist position. <br />
