Sanitation contractor outlines CPI-linked rate increases under current contract
Summary
Southern Oregon Sanitation presented operating costs and a rate structure that allows Consumer Price Index-linked increases under the city contract; council was briefed on the upcoming CPI adjustments for garbage collection.
Nick Fahey of Southern Oregon Sanitation presented to the council on May 7 about the company’s operating costs and the contract rate structure that permits Consumer Price Index (CPI) adjustments.
Fahey highlighted that the contract language allows CPI-based rate increases; the presentation focused on the drivers of cost pressure rather than proposing an immediate local rate change. Council received the presentation with no formal motion recorded.
The briefing served as advance notice to the council and residents that future CPI adjustments authorized by the contract could affect household garbage collection costs, subject to the contract’s notice and approval requirements.
