Garbage and Recycling Fees to go up at least 9.8% ?


TENDER AWARDED:
PW-08-27 2008 Chipping Program Feb 18, 2008
All Pro Tree & Landscape $32,812.50
Horizon Tree Service $49,560.00
Town & Country Tree Service $31,500.00
TOTAL $113,872.50

On page 23 of the initial budget estimates for 2008 in the Garbage Collection section the line item #224002006 Spring Chipping Program is $89,398. (apparent shortage of $24,464). (Perhaps one of these contracts is for year round chipping as required?) If so the budget should have such a line item but it does not appear in this service function.

According to this initial budget the proposed rate increase for this service will already increase by 9.8%.
