There were no Committee appointments offered for consideration.
County Manager
Karen Hawes had no items to be discussed.
Referring to the Board’s Intent for Solid Waste Ordinance adopted on May 31, 2011, County Attorney
Michael Hunt noted that questions arose as to the scope and extent of the Board’s action. Attorney Hunt received the
following confirmation of changes on pages 12 and 44 of the Ordinance adopted last week:
1) Reflect that the 23 Mobile Home Parks noted in Exhibit C of the Ordinance will be permanently
vested to contract with any private dealer for removal of their recyclable materials.
2) The Mobile Home Parks will be treated as a “business” for their solid waste collections.
3) For “flow control” purposes though, the 23 Mobile Home Parks are still considered residential.
Attorney Hunt noted there was consensus of the Board that the clarification is the correct interpretation.
The Chairman adjourned the meeting at 11:11 a.m.
