Council renews yearly testing contract for Sheridan Township landfill
Summary
Council approved the annual renewal of the contract for testing and EPA reporting at the Sheridan Township landfill; the city shares costs with Decker Manufacturing and staff said this year’s rate increase was modest compared with last year.
A city staff member (speaker 15) briefed council on the annual renewal of the environmental testing and reporting contract for the Sheridan Township landfill. The testing firm performs required monitoring and reports to state regulators and the EPA; the city shares costs with Decker Manufacturing because Decker is partly responsible for the monitored area.
Staff said the contract is renewed annually and that while last year had a substantial price jump (about $18,000 increase), this year’s renewal showed only a small increase. Council asked about contract history and ownership; staff clarified the landfill is state‑owned and the city’s role is cost‑sharing for required testing and reporting. The council approved the renewal on voice vote.
