Fiscal Court updates tire-disposal fees to match vendor rates
Summary
The court approved an update to solid-waste tire-disposal pricing to reflect increased vendor charges; officials said the county will align its fees with the vendor rather than subsidize the difference.
The Fiscal Court approved an update to solid-waste pricing on March 12 to align the county's tire-disposal fees with current vendor charges. Solid-waste staff said the vendor's price increases mean the county's previously low fee for tire disposal no longer covers the county's cost.
Staff presented an updated price list and asked the court whether the county should continue subsidizing the difference or pass the vendor rate to customers. Magistrates voted to update the county charge so it reflects what the vendor now charges. The motion carried by voice vote.
Ending: Solid-waste staff said they will update the county's fee schedule and implement the revised pricing.
