Dear City Clerk:
Dubuque Metropolitan Area Solid Waste Agency
IVIASWA
The purpose of this letter is to notify you of the Dubuque Metropolitan Area Solid Waste
Agency's FY11 budget and fee schedule, which were approved by the Agency's Board
of Directors yesterday. They will go into effect on July 1, 2010. Copies of both are
attached. The Agency's posted tonnage fee and contract tonnage fee will increase by
$1.00 per ton in the coming year. Its special waste fee will increase by $2.00 per ton.
Its yard waste and minimum fees will not change. Its other fees, such as for tires and
appliances, will be set in approximately three months, after FY2011 recycling service
contracts have been awarded.
The Dubuque Metropolitan Area Solid Waste Agency is a 28E partnership of the County
and City of Dubuque. It owns and operates essential public utility infrastructure,
including a municipal solid waste landfill, a composting facility, a household hazardous
materials collection facility, an e-scrap recycling program, and multiple recyclables
dropoff stations. The Agency receives no tax or per capita fee subsidies, relying solely
on the fees charged at its facilities to operate as the not - for - profit, solid waste disposal
utility for Dubuque and Delaware counties. It appreciates your past and future support.
Sincerely,
u o J 6o q/Al4 •.c./
Chuck Goddard rte•It;
Agency Administrator
