Title
Discussion and Possible Direction on Mr. Ward’s Proposed Improvements to the Existing Caspar Transfer Station to be Funded from the $3 Caspar Surcharge
Summary
At the Joint City/County Coastal Transfer Station Ad Hoc Committee meeting on September 17, 2020, Jerry Ward of Solid Wastes of Willits, spoke about his proposed improvements to the Caspar Transfer Station to improve the efficiency of the current self-haul operations only, with no expansion or addition of curbside hauling transfer. Mr. Ward’s proposal is to fund the improvements using the current $3/yard surcharge, and he believes the improvements will be paid for in approximately 30 months. Because it is clear any new Central Coast Transfer Station is still many years away, the Committee agreed to discuss potential publicly funded improvements at their next meeting in October or November.
