QT NN N S, III CITY ATTO Y BSS:M2118 11233 -3- CITY OF MIAMI, FLORIDA INTER -OFFICE MEMORANDUM To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Commission FROM Cesa. o City er RECOMMENDATION 35 DATE : JAN 3 1 1995 FILE : SUBJECT: Proposed Ordinance Amending Chapter 22 of the City Code/Waste Fees REFERENCES: ENCLOSURES: One Respectfully submitted for your approval is the above -referenced ordinance relating to solid waste fees. The ordinance does not increase the fee, but re -describes it to reflect current use and provides for future increases in disposal fees and, therefore, costs to the City over which we have no control. BACKGROUND On an average nationally, a family of four (4) produces approximately four (4) tons of solid waste annually. Our historic data indicates that on an average we collect and dispose of, garbage, trash and recycling materials included, approxi- mately this amount of material per single family residence annually. Our current disposal options are as follows: LOCATION AMOUNT PER TON Dade County's Resource Recovery Plant $59 Dade County's Transfer Station $68 Wheelabrator Incinerator in Broward County $44 Kimmins Recycling Facility in Dade County $45 The average single residence annual disposal costs to the City are $236, $272, $170 or $130 annually, respectively, at these facilities. Currently, the Code of the City of Miami Sec. 22-12 Waste Fees, assesses a $160 annual waste fee per single family unit for all residential units. Of the assessed fee, Forty -Five Dollars ($45) represents scale fees charged to the City by'Dade County and One Hundred Fifteen Dollars ($115) is reflected as garbage collection fees. 112333,5 1 Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Commission Page 2 As you know, we intend to pursue achieving the lowest disposal cost per ton that we can provide for our residents. It is -for that reason that we are not currently recommending an increase in this fee to reflect this fiscal reality. As you can see, however, we are no longer able to attribute any- of the operational cost of collection to this fee. The attached ordinance, therefore, indicates that the $160 per single-family residence annual solid waste fee represents scale fees charged to the City by the disposal sites which it uses and further codifies automatic increases which will be based solely upon increases which the City may be forced to pay at disposal sites in the future. { 11233 CITY OF MIAMI, FLORIDA INTER -OFFICE MEMORANDUM TO : Cesar H.
