The authority reviewed a letter from John Perry of Recology Del Norte proposing changes to the list of accepted recyclable materials, specifically requesting that the authority drop plastics categories numbered 4 and 7 from collection.

Staff asked for direction to negotiate a change order; the board provided consensus that staff should proceed to negotiate but no formal change order was approved at the meeting. Director Ted said staff will return with proposed contract language and any related fiscal impacts for board consideration before a final change order is adopted.

Ending: Staff will negotiate with Recology Del Norte and bring back a proposed change order and cost/operational impacts for board approval.
