to understand, rather than multiplying a base amount by a tonnage <br />figure. <br />Delores Hill also wondered why her assessment has changed <br />since nothing has changed at her house; they still take just two <br />cans a week to the Landfill. She objected to anything added to <br />her tax bill except property taxes, and didn't appreciate her <br />taxes going up and up. It seemed to her that the only control the <br />taxpayer has is their vote. <br />Commissioner Wheeler noted that every time the Commission <br />votes to raise your taxes, they are voting to raise their taxes <br />also. At least with the Solid Waste Disposal District, the <br />approach that we have taken is correct in that everybody pays a <br />fair share compared to property taxes being paid on an appraised <br />amount. <br />Lengthy discussion ensued.regarding the recycling issue. <br />Commissioner Scurlock pointed out that right now the County is <br />stockpiling some recyclable items while waiting for a better <br />price. It's the old story of supply and demand. Right now, the <br />market is glutted with certain recyclable materials. He expected <br />that prices will continue to drop until people start buying more <br />products made from recycled materials and the manufacturers' <br />demand for more recyclable materials increases. <br />Commissioner Bowman felt the County could do more in its <br />effort to use more products made from recycled materials, such as <br />stationery, envelopes, paper fowels, toilet paper, etc., and <br />Administrator Chandler advised that more and more County purchase <br />orders are being filled with products made from recycled <br />materials. <br />Glenn Legwen wished to point out that much of the material <br />that is being taken out to the Landfill is biodegradable, and if <br />the Board would approve it, he would be very willing to take it <br />and construct a compost pile that would be turned into lots of <br />fertile soil in 5 years or so. <br />
