From the meeting
At the September 29, 2026 TEUC meeting, DPW briefed the committee on a solid waste generation tax strategy tied to a $165,000 recycling and solid waste budget shortfall. The report said the short-term approach would use flow control and an ordinance change to require residential properties to pay the tax and move to municipal collection. Staff said the changes could bring in about $130,000 and should be implemented by January 1 for FY27 relief.
Decision state: discussed and recommended for ordinance drafting.
