Three Oaks accepts five‑year rubbish contract; declines optional yard‑waste service
Summary
Council accepted Lakeshore Recycling’s five‑year rubbish and recycling proposal but declined the optional yard waste service after staff said it would duplicate DPW work and raise costs for residents.
On March 11, the Three Oaks Village Council reviewed competing rubbish and recycling proposals and voted to accept Lakeshore Recycling’s five‑year contract without the optional yard waste pickup. Council Member Thomas asked whether adding yard waste would duplicate DPW responsibilities and increase costs; the Village Manager confirmed that including yard waste would raise monthly charges for residents. After discussion, Council moved to accept Lakeshore Recycling’s proposal without the yard waste option and directed staff and the Village Attorney to prepare the agreement.
The motion carried; Council recorded no nays among members present. The contract duration was specified as five years; the meeting did not include a line‑item dollar amount for the contract in the minutes. Staff will return with a prepared agreement for formal execution.
