ATTORNEY COLLINS DISCUSSED DRAFT OF A COMPREHENSIVE SOLID WASTE ORDINANCE AND NOTED THAT THIS WAS INCLUDED IN AN INFORMATIONAL PACKET ALONG WITH THE DRAFT OF AN AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE COUNTY AND THE CITY OF VERO BEACH IN REGARD TO THE USE OF THE SANITARY LANDFILL. ATTORNEY COLLINS NOTED THAT THE CONSULTANTS RECOMMENDED THIS DRAFTED MATERIAL AND STATED THAT HE DOES NOT BELIEVE WE CAN USE THESE DOCUMENTS IN TOTO, BUT HE FEELS SOME OF THE IDEAS AND CONCEPTS ARE USEFUL. ATTORNEY COLLINS STATED THAT THESE DOCUMENTS IN CONCEPT ARE SAYING YOU PAY FOR WHAT YOU USE; I.E., THE COUNTY WILL FIGURE OUT THEIR COSTS AND DIVIDE THE MUNICIPALITIES COSTS OUT ON THE BASIS OF WHAT THEY USE. HE NOTED THAT SO FAR WE HAVE ONLY DISCUSSED CHARGING FEES. COMMISSIONER SIEBERT POINTED OUT THAT THE DRAFTS ARE BASED ON A FULLY COSTED OPERATION AND DO NOT ANTICIPATE A SUPPLEMENT BY THE COUNTY. COMMISSIONER LOY ASKED IF WE HAVE TO GO ON A PRO RATA SHARE, AND ATTORNEY COLLINS STATED THAT WE DON'T.HAVE TO, BUT HE FELT THIS WILL AT LEAST GIVE US A FORMULA ON HOW THE COSH'S WILL BE SHARED. HE STATED HE FELT THIS IS A GOOD STARTING PLACE FOR GIVING ALL THE PARTIES INVOLVED SOMETHING TO REVIEW AND SUGGESTED THAT COPIES OF THESE DRAFTS BE SENT TO THE VARIOUS MUNICIPALITIES SO THEY CAN BE LOOKING AT THEM, AND WE CAN THEN WORK TOWARDS A MUTUAL AGREEMENT. DISCUSSION CONTINUED ON RATIO OR PROPORTIONATE SHARES, AND THE ATTORNEY SAID HE FELT THE MUNICIPALITIES SHOULD SHARE IN DIRECT PROPORTION TO THEIR USAGE. THE ATTORNEY NOTED THERE ARE TWO SEPARATE PROBLEMS ASSURING TOTAL PARTICIPATION AND HAVING AN ORDINANCE TO CONTROL THE ENTIRE COUNTY'S USE. HE FELT UNDER AN ORDINANCE WE CAN REQUIRE FRANCHISE HOLDERS TO USE THE LANDFILL. CHAIRMAN WODTKE INSTRUCTED ATTORNEY COLLINS TO CONTACT THE VARIOUS MUNICIPALITIES AND SUPPLY THEM WITH COPIES OF THESE DRAFTS AS HE PREVIOUSLY SUGGESTED. 7%
