collection of recyclables at certain locations and with certain private companies.

Affidavit of Publication
for
this item, and briefly described and clarified the request. Commissioner Manning provided his reasons for retaining
the current Ordinances under consideration. Solid Waste Director Lindsey Sampson provided input on the reasons for

Mr. Sampson, at the request of Chairman Mann, addressed issues raised by the public speakers. He clarified the basis
for the proposed sunset clause date of 2015; and urged the Board not to delete the entire grandfathering provision,
which is represented within the second sentence on page 44 of the proposed Ordinance, as suggested. Further Board
discussion ensued with reference to a May 26 memorandum from, and input by, Mr. Sampson. It was pointed out that
a proposed amendment to an existing Ordinance may be brought to the Board at any time. Following lengthy
discussion, Commissioner Manning moved to eliminate the 2015 sunset provision, continue the 2008 grandfather
provision, and include the 23 subject mobile home/recreational vehicle parks currently serviced by private vendors 1
and 2. In response to the question by Chairman Mann on the proposed deletion of the second sentence on page 44 of

the proposed Ordinance, Mr. Sampson advised that the motion would strike only the final portion of the sentence that
reads “or October 1, 2015, whichever first occurs.” The maker of the motion agreed, and it was seconded by
Commissioner Judah for discussion. Assistant County Attorney Coovert provided further clarification on
grandfathering constraints at the request of Commissioner Judah. The maker of the motion indicated his intent was to
allow the subject parks to be permanently grandfathered and allowed to use any dealer. The seconder of the motion
further clarified that the parameters of the motion would allow the subject parks to continue to be vested and treated as
businesses for purposes of recoverable materials. The motion was called and carried with Commissioner Bigelow
voting nay. The Ordinance adopted by the Board and filed was
