Background: At the August 22, 2006 Board of Supervisors meeting the board approved a 3.78% fuel surcharge on the collection rates for El Dorado Disposal. The item as presented to the Board at that time was a hearing to consider adoption of Resolution 261-2006 increasing rates by a fuel surcharge equal to 3.78% effective October 1, 2006 for El Dorado Disposal Service, Inc to compensate for rising fuel costs over the previous three years.
Reason for Recommendation: The resolution presented to the Board and approved at that meeting did not include a comprehensive list of all the rates for service provided by the company. Upon implementation of the fuel surcharge as it was originally sought, El Dorado Disposal imposed the fee on all lines of service. The Environmental Management Department was recently apprised of this situation during a review of the solid waste services rates and realized that the Resolution needs to be modified to conform to the purpose and intent of the August 22, 2006 Board item and to ratify the comprehensive list of service rates as of October 1, 2006.
Action to be taken following Board approval: Upon execution, forward a copy of the resolution to the Department for distribution.
