Vitunac, County Attorney <br />DATE: September 25, 1995 <br />RE: Reasons Sanitation <br />Requested Action: <br />Authorization from Board to prohibit Reasons Sanitation from using the SWDD <br />facilities and for Utilities Department and County Attorney to take any <br />further action necessary to cause Reasons Sanitation to cease operation as an <br />unlicensed waste hauler in violation of the County's exclusive franchise with <br />Harris Sanitation Co. <br />Background: <br />The County has given exclusive franchises to two waste haulers for the <br />unincorporated areas, i.e., Harris Sanitation and Republic Waste. Sometime <br />ago Harris Sanitation came to the County with a complaint that Reasons <br />Sanitation was operating in violation of Harris' exclusive franchise. That <br />issue was resolved by Harris Sanitation's hiring Reasons Sanitation as a <br />subcontractor of Harris for a limited area. The County has recently been <br />informed by Harris Sanitation that, because of failure by Reasons Sanitation <br />to provide revenue reports and pay associated franchise fees, Reasons <br />Sanitation was terminated as a subcontractor. Harris Sanitation has now <br />requested that the County prohibit Reasons Sanitation from continuing to <br />dispose of waste at the County facilities since Reasons Sanitation has no <br />legal right to engage in the hauling business in this County. <br />Staff Recommendation: <br />Staff agrees with this recommendation and recommends that the Board authorize <br />staff to prohibit Reasons Sanitation from disposing of waste at the County <br />landfill o$ other facility. Staff further requests authority to take legal <br />action against Reasons if necessary to enjoin them from violating our <br />exclusive franchise with Harris Sanitation. <br />31 <br />OCTOBER 3, 1995 <br />BOOK 96 PArF ?8 0 <br />
