Staff issued an addendum in response, and one of the <br />response questions resulted in a protest by Capital Sanitation, which pertains to commercial <br />collection service in the unincorporated Enterprise Zone. The issue dealt with the existing <br />contracts in the unincorporated Enterprise Zone, which according to the Statutes in place, has to <br />be retained by the current franchise haulers. Therefore, if Waste Management or Treasure Coast <br />Refuse has existing commercial contracts, they will retain those contracts up until the point that <br />those contracts expire or are not renewed. He promised that staff would return to the Board on <br />March 3, 2009, with a recommendation. <br />Mr. Mehta thereafter responded to questions and concerns from Board members <br />regarding the franchise haulers, service routes, solicitation countywide, and being restricted to <br />the Enterprise Zone. <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner O'Bryan, SECONDED by <br />Commissioner Solari, the Board unanimously approved the <br />Notice to schedule a public meeting on March 3, 2009, to <br />approve or deny the applications for a third waste hauling <br />February 17, 2009 <br />S.W.D.D. <br />2 <br />
