Increase Pay As You Throw Tag Rates For Village Materials Management Program

Resolution #10-2017 — 2017-04-20

WHEREAS

  • the Village of Red Hook provides curb-side household garbage and single-stream recycling pick up under its pay as you throw tag system
  • the Village uses the Highway Department staff to transport the household garbage and recycling materials to the Ulster County Resource Recovery Agency (UCRRA) where fees are incurred
  • UCRRA has recently instituted a charge for accepting recycling materials when they had accepted them free of charge in the past
  • there has also been a gradual increase in the charge for UCRRA accepting household garbage and the continuation of a fuel surcharge
  • the use of UCRRA is still the most viable site due to its proximity to the Village and fees charged

RESOLVED

  • the Village will increase its fee for garbage tags. Blue/small tags will be $2.75 and red/large bag tags will be $5.50. This will allow the Village to continue the program and absorb increases in costs. The rate increase will be effective June 1, 2017.
