Council approves Waste Management refuse-hauler license with East Central Regional Waste requirement
Summary
Chisago City Council accepted Waste Management's five-year refuse-hauler license application and required the company to use East Central Regional Waste, resolving questions about commercial-hauler licensing and ownership transfer in the city's ordinance.
Chisago City Council on May 27 accepted a refuse-hauler license application from Waste Management and attached a condition requiring use of East Central Regional Waste.
Associate Planner Leah Nelson explained the five-year application under Municipal Code Chapter 153. Council members discussed whether the license represented an additional commercial hauler or a license transferred due to a change in ownership; Administrator John Pechman explained the ordinance had been revised some years earlier to allow two commercial haulers and that corporate customers with exclusive licenses might switch service.
Council member Craig Meyer moved to accept the license application with the requirement that Waste Management use East Central Regional Waste; Council member Mark Anderson seconded and the motion passed unanimously.
The minutes do not reproduce a full copy of the license or any contractual terms; businesses with existing exclusive arrangements were noted in the discussion and could choose to switch service providers under the updated licensing structure.
