Finance committee approves payment of landfill monitoring invoice from landfill fund
Summary
Committee members approved paying a higher-than-usual landfill monitoring invoice from the city’s landfill fund, citing the city’s prior agreement to share monitoring costs for the reclaimed landfill.
The Finance Committee voted on April 20 to pay an invoice for landfill monitoring and reclamation costs from the city’s landfill fund (Fund 22). Staff said the city’s share reflects an agreement tied to the landfill land transaction and that this year’s testing costs were higher because of expanded chemical monitoring requirements.
A staff presenter explained the monitoring program and said the city’s portion this year was larger than typical; the city funds the expense from the landfill fund set up for that purpose. A committee member moved to pay the invoice from Fund 22; another member seconded. In a roll-call vote, Alderperson Smith, Alderperson Newman and Alderperson Henkel voted aye and the motion carried.
The transcript records the payment approval; no further details about the vendor billing schedule, monitoring contractor specifics, or individual line items were provided at the meeting.
