5. The Town of IRS wishes to remain part of the SWDD; however, recognizes that the Inter- Local Agreement between the SWDD and the Town of IRS needs to be revised. ANALYSIS: The Board should consider the following options: 1. Wait for the Town of Indian River Shores to meet on Thursday, May 21, 2015 whereby the Town Council will meet to decide on how to proceed with the current Interlocal Agreement (ILA) with the County. 2. Direct SWDD staff to work with the County Attorney and the Town to modify the current ILA to allow Republic Services to continue to provide recycling services to the Town through the end of 2017. What has become apparent during this process is that the ILA's with the municipalities, in effect since 1993, are outdated and contain language that makes the possibility of long term commitments from the municipalities difficult due to a very short term termination clause. If the Shores' ILA will need to be modified due to the recycling aspect for the Town, then all the municipality ILA's should also be modified to address the short term termination language and updated to reflect the current recycling goals set forth by the State of Florida. This aspect is key to solidify the partnerships with the municipalities as we work together to create a cohesive recycling program that will allow us to reach 75% recycling by the year 2020. RECOMMENDATION: Staff is requesting direction from the SWDD Board on this matter.
