Administrator Chandler advised that we are looking at a task <br />force approach to this problem. Several different groups would be <br />involved headed by Code Enforcement. Last Thursday, 18 warnings <br />were issued as opposed to citations. of the 18 warnings, 5 were <br />given to people caught at the site. We will accelerate our efforts <br />this week. <br />Administrator Chandler explained that the County Attorney's <br />Office has prepared a resolution that would establish a schedule of <br />penalties <br />Commissioner Eggert supported a $50 fine since the fine for <br />littering on the road is $150. She felt it needs to hurt a little. <br />MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by <br />Commissioner Adams, to adopt Resolution 95-62, <br />adopting a schedule of penalties for County Code <br />violations cited in accordance with the citation <br />provisions of County Code Section 103.07. <br />Under discussion, Fred Mensing of Roseland stated he has <br />observed the Roseland transfer station at least twice a day since <br />it has been closed. The signs ---are not clear in their instructions <br />and, in some cases, were hidden from view. He suggested that we go <br />to a compaction process at the transfer stations in order to reduce <br />the number of truck loads going to the Landfill. Mr. Mensing also <br />suggested that the County post signs giving more information on <br />alternate sites. He believed that a way could.be found to open <br />these stations 7 days a week. Even if these stations had to be <br />unmanned for a few hours a day, he felt sure the people would put <br />their trash into the proper place in the transfer station if they <br />were allowed to enter. Mr. Mensing believed the penalty should be <br />more severe. <br />Administrator Chandler felt Mr. Mensing had a good point about <br />clarifying the signs at the transfer stations. <br />In answer to Commissioner Adams' question, he noted that all <br />our signs are in English. <br />THE CHAIRMAN CALLED FOR THE QUESTION which was <br />amended to include having additional signs and <br />clearer signs. The Motion passed unanimously. <br />11 BOOK 9 PACE 7�$ <br />MAY 2.1995 <br />
