15 B. Z CONSTR UCTION AND DEMOLITION DEBRIS AT IRC LANDFILL <br /> "1 <br /> Director of Utility Services Erik Olson recalled that during the October 18 , 2011 Solid <br /> Waste Disposal District ( SWDD) Board meeting there had been discussion regarding the <br /> implementation of a 90 -day pilot project to recycle construction and demolition (C &D) debris <br /> (paper products and metal) . During said meeting, staff expressed concerns that below a certain <br /> percentage of recycling, the recycling project would become a cost to the County, and Republic <br /> Services (Republic) expressed that they had no control over the amount of material that would be <br /> recycled . Director Olson provided fee and credit information pertaining to recycled materials , <br /> and recommended proceeding with the 90 -day pilot project for C &D materials , which would <br /> minimize the liability for both the County and Republic , and allow the County to determine if the <br /> program is a viable process . He reiterated that the 90 -day period would not give Republic a <br /> contract beyond the amount of the pilot project, it would allow staff to make decisions as to <br /> whether it makes sense, and whether there are other private companies within the County that <br /> might be viable for the process . <br /> Lou April, Citrus Springs , wanted to know if there was a relationship with today ' s topic <br /> and next week ' s meeting with the company who purchased property across the street from the <br /> landfill . <br /> Director Olson clarified that the pilot project has no correlation with the contractor who is <br /> considering building across the street from the landfill . <br /> Bill Rigby, 84655 91h Avenue, questioned the existing contract for C &D debris, and the <br /> i <br /> pilot program . <br /> Attorney Polackwich explained that the contract with Republic is broad . He said it calls <br /> for Republic to perform the services that the County contemplated at the time, and that the <br /> provisions provided state the contractor shall provide additional services in connection with the <br /> landfill, as required by the Solid Waste Disposal District, <br /> November 1 , 20112 14 , PG 6 2 8 <br />
