The County Commission adopted an ordinance increasing residential door-to-door trash collection fees after a public hearing with no public speakers. The measure passed on second reading with an electronic vote recorded as 15 yes and 0 no.
The ordinance is listed in the meeting packet as 03/19/2025-06. The commission opened and closed the public hearing at the meeting and proceeded to the second reading. A clerk noted a typographical issue in the packet language that referred to a third reading; the county's legal staff indicated the item was properly before the commission for the second reading and continuation in the adopted form.
No amendments were offered during the hearing and no members of the public spoke on the record. Commissioners cast their votes electronically; the meeting recorded an initial 14-0 electronic tally followed by a corrected 15-0 tally when one commissioner re-entered a vote. The ordinance will take effect according to the schedule in county code and the adopted clerk's certification.
Details of the fee change, including new amounts and effective dates, appear in the ordinance language in the packet (page 19).
