J Fr- I DEG BOOK 70 F'',F`� 4212 Commissioner Bird further noted that the clubhouse is separate from the apartments, and each has to pay a fee for what it generates. Mr. Shotwell stressed you still have the same people paying twice, and Commissioner Eggert believed they are paying that now. Director Pinto also pointed out that there are apartment complexes that don't have clubhouses, and certainly it wouldn't be fair for them to subsidize the Vista clubhouses. George Moody informed the Board that he has a tire store and some other pieces of property, and while he realizes this is intended to generate money to add to the landfill, it seems the county is going to have special tax districts for parks, for roads, and now for the Landfill, and where do we stop this! Then, Mr. Moody pointed out that tires are considered a special item, and he was informed that the county no longer accepts tires at the landfill. He now is sending some of his tires to Maryland. The county wants to tax him for a service they are not providing him, and he wanted to know why tires are considered special. The Chairman explained that when you bury tires, they keep rising to the surface, and Director Pinto advised that tires are considered special throughout the county and are such a problem to dispose of that they must be handled separately. Some are going to Maryland as Mr.'Moody has said, and the amount he will be charged under this ordinance will not include tires. We are looking at 112 a million or more just to take care of tires. Chairman Scurlock asked if we are going to be accepting tires at the new landfill, and Director Pinto hoped we will be able to. He reported that we now are looking at a machine that will not only chip tires but large timber also. Discussion continued at length regarding tires with Mr. Moody arguing that they just arbitrarily shut off accepting tires at the Landfill. He asked why disposing of tires hasn't been looked into before. 42
