Round Valley MAC to press county contractor over lack of recycling and rising transfer fees
Summary
Council members discussed gaps in services from C&S Waste Solutions (Redwood Waste Solutions), including lack of access to California's CRV recycling program, rising transfer‑station fees, and restrictions on metal/appliance drop‑offs. Lew and Dane will draft a letter; Laura motioned to send 'Pat's' letter on MAC letterhead and Marylou moved to approve two final letters.
Council members spent a substantial portion of the meeting on trash and littering in Round Valley, telling the minutes that "RV may not be receiving all the services as per the county’s contract with C&S Waste Solutions (Redwood Waste Solutions). For example, we do not have access to California’s CRV recycling program, the transfer station fees keep going up, and we cannot bring metal recycling or appliances to the local site." Lew and Dane agreed to draft a formal letter to the county documenting these service gaps.
Laura Betts moved to send what the minutes call "Pat's letter" on MAC letterhead; later Marylou Mileck motioned to approve the final versions of two letters so they could be mailed. The minutes do not record vote tallies; the Council recorded the motions for follow-up and outreach to county officials.
