Board OKs CPI-driven solid-waste rate increase for 2026–27
Summary
Staff presented a CPI adjustment to commercial solid-waste rates required by government code; the board approved the proposed rate increase for 2026 and 2027 after brief discussion.
The board approved a proposed increase to commercial solid-waste collection rates to take effect in 2026–27.
Staff presenter Jennifer Oaks told the board the adjustment reflects the required CPI-based update under government code and that the proposed rates had been previously approved by the board; the current action formalized the CPI increase for 2026 and 2027. “This is approval of our solid waste rates,” Oaks said during the presentation. Board members described the increase as minimal and moved to approve; the motion passed by voice vote.
The action formalizes the district’s CPI-based indexation of commercial solid-waste rates for the next two budget years and was approved during the meeting’s consent and action sequence.
