Commissioner announces progress on towing and disposal of abandoned RVs; cites ~$175 per foot cost
Summary
During commissioner business, a Lane County commissioner said staff are close to issuing an RFP to tow and dispose of abandoned RVs; the county reported an estimated disposal cost of about $175 per foot covering tow, storage and dismantling.
During the Jan. 7 meeting’s commissioner business segment, Vice Chair Senegale announced progress on a request-for-proposals process to remove and dispose of abandoned recreational vehicles on county roadways.
Senegale said county roads staff reported that previously towed RVs have been cleaned up and disposed of, and that the county developed a cost estimate to tow, store and dismantle abandoned RVs at roughly $175 per foot. He said the figure covers towing, storage and dismantling costs from the time the RV is towed.
The board did not take formal action during the announcement; Senegale said staff were completing the RFP and that removal of abandoned RVs should accelerate as the procurement moves forward.
The announcement was made under commissioner business and did not include public comment or a formal vote. No additional budget or timeline details were provided during the meeting.
