The Wellton Town Council on March 3 adopted Resolution R2026-753, approving a solid waste disposal service agreement with Republic Services Copper Mountain Landfill, Inc., and authorized staff to execute the necessary documents.
Town Attorney Timothy Stratton told the council the agreement "uses the agreement with Yuma County to enter an agreement with the same terms offered to the Town," and noted the town could renegotiate if the county changes terms before the agreement ends.
Vice Mayor Barbara Biggs moved to adopt the resolution; Council Member Ralph Davidson seconded. The council voted 5-0 in favor (Davidson, McCollough, Sampson, Biggs and Mayor Michelle Jones voting aye).
The agreement adopts the county's terms for landfill disposal; the minutes do not specify contract duration, rates, or other contractual details. Staff was authorized to finalize and execute the documents required to implement the agreement.
