Director of Utility Services Vincent Burke provided background and analysis on the
First Amendment to the Franchise Agreement with Waste Management, which deals
with the fluctuations in the natural gas component of the Consumer Price Index
(CPI) increase. He stated that staffs proposal is to eliminate the natural gas
component of the rate adjustment and reduce the CPI increase from a maximum
rate adjustment from 3.5% to 3.0%, with the understanding there will be no rate
adjustment for the upcoming Fiscal Year starting on October 1, 2016 and ending
September 30, 2017. He reviewed the amendments to the Franchise Agreement and
directed the Board's attention to the Revised Exhibit 4 - Calculation of Rate
Adjustment.
Commissioner Zorc recognized Waste Management on their service and community
support.
