Dear City Clerk:
The purpose of this letter is to notify you of the Dubuque Metropolitan Area Solid Waste
Agency's FY13 budget and fee schedule, which were approved by the Agency's Board
of Directors earlier this evening. They will go into effect on July 1, 2012. Copies of both
are attached. The Agency's posted tonnage fee and contract tonnage fee will increase
by $1.06 per ton in the coming year. Its special waste fee will increase by $2.12 per
ton. Its tire recycling, appliance recycling, and minimum fees will not change. Its yard
waste composting fee will be set in approximately three months, after a FY2013 service
contract has 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 electronic scrap recycling program, multiple recyclables
drop -off stations, and a methane recovery system. 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,
C4addes F. Goddard
Charles F. Goddard
Agency Administrator
