Council directs staff to place garbage-fee increase on agenda along with water-rate discussion
Summary
Finance Director Peter Anjewierden briefed the council on past and anticipated garbage fee increases; the council instructed staff to put an increase in garbage fees on a future agenda alongside the water-rate item.
Finance Director Peter Anjewierden informed the South Ogden City Council about past increases to the City's garbage fees and anticipated further increases.
"The council discussed the increases and decided that some of the increased garbage fees to the City should be passed to the residents. They instructed staff to put an increase in garbage fees on the agenda with the increase in water fees," the meeting minutes state. The minutes record council direction to staff but do not include a formal motion text or recorded vote for adoption of new garbage rates.
The discussion was a parts-and-pieces budgetary exchange: staff described fee history and projections, and council members agreed staff should prepare an agenda item bringing a proposed fee increase back for formal consideration. The minutes do not list an ordinance number, dollar amounts, or an effective date for any potential change; those details were not specified.
The garbage-fee proposal was discussed later in the session after the Water Fund presentation and is recorded as council direction to bring the matter forward for formal consideration.
