Officials Urged to Consider Landfill Fee Increases After Three Rivers Rate Hike
Summary
Administrator Riley said Three Rivers landfill rates are rising and suggested Barnwell County examine local landfill fees as another revenue source to help close the 2027 budget gap.
Administrator Roger E. Riley raised landfill fees as a possible revenue option, saying "Three Rivers is going up so we should perhaps look at the Landfill fees." He recommended staff include fee comparisons and revenue estimates in the second-reading packet for the budget.
No formal action was taken to change landfill fees at the May 12 meeting. The council instructed staff to include landfill-fee data with other revenue options as they prepare the full budget document for the second reading and ordinance drafting.
