Northfield hears ACUA CPI increases: recycling $184,640.37, yard‑waste $168,921.64 effective March 1
Summary
Mayor Chau told the City Council the Atlantic County Utilities Authority will apply CPI increases on March 1, raising recycling to $184,640.37 and yard‑waste service to $168,921.64, with a pull charge of $172.17; council members logged the figures for budgeting review.
Municipal Clerk Mary Canesi called the meeting to order at 6:34 p.m., and Mayor Chau used his report to outline several notices for the council.
Mayor Chau said the Atlantic County Utilities Authority (ACUA) notified the city of CPI‑related cost increases that will take effect March 1. He listed the amounts: recycling would be $184,640.37, yard‑waste $168,921.64 and a pull charge of $172.17. The figures were presented to the council for awareness and budget consideration.
The mayor placed the numbers on the record during the meeting rather than asking for immediate action. Staff follow‑up on budget impacts and potential line‑item adjustments was implied by the presentation; the council did not take a separate vote on the ACUA notice at this meeting.
The notice was part of the mayor’s broader report, which also included a December police report and other administrative items.
