·Discussion on Fulton County Transfer Station

Resolution 2010-215 Increase Rates at Transfer Station Facility

The Board was presented with the County Administrator’s recommendations for a rate increase for the Transfer Station.  Mr. Hall’s recommendation included that the last time rates were increased was in 2005.  80% of the total revenue for the transfer station comes from cash and credit card transactions and 20% comes from contractors with charge accounts.  Based on tons this calendar year to date, by raising the rate from $50 to $60 per ton, this would realize a additional $30,227 in revenue.  This would also raise the base charge of $10 to $12, realizing an additional approximate revenue of $8,400 annually.  This would be a total of $38,677.00. 

Another scenario would be to raise the rates from $50 to $65/ton, with a $13 base rate.  This would realize an additional $61,000.00 total.

Commissioner Short made the motion to raise increase the rates from $50 to $60/ton, with a base charge of $12 and Commissioner Barnaby seconded the motion.  Motion carried unanimously.
