SLVSWMF Landfill Fee Mid-Year Budget Amendment

Type of Initiative
Initiative Discussion:
Revenue
It is proposed that several of the SLVSWMF (Landfill) tipping fees increase by $2.00/ton.
When the Landfill budget was adopted by the City Council, a fee increase of $.75/ton for the
doubling of the Salt Lake Valley Health Dept assessment was approved. This fee increase
was not implemented at the Landfill. It is now proposed that an additional fee increase of
$1.25/ton be added. The total tipping fee increase will be $2.00/ton. The implementation date
is 01 July 2010.
The last general fee increase at the Landfill occurred in 1997. The $.75/ton increase will cover
the increased Health Dept assessment. The $1.25/ton fee increase will help generate the
funds needed to construct an additional module at the Landfill, the move and expansion of
the Citizen Unloading Facility and the inflationary component of GASB 18.
The tipping fee for clean-fill is also proposed to change. The fee will decrease from
$12.35/ton to $5.00/ton. Additonal clean-fill is needed to shore up an area within the Landfrl
for leachate pond construction. If the needed quantity of clean-fill is not received at the
Landfill based on reducing the tipping fee to $5.00/ton, the clean-fill tipping fee will be
dropped to zero/ton. It is anticipated that this flexible pricing will be in effect from 14 March
2010 - 17 November 2010.
Expense
Employee service reserve rates are increasing to accommodate one time increase for early
retirements. This is a change of$116,868 to the adopted budget. The rates for the 2011
budget will not include this one time increase.
The calculations associated with GASB 18 and the balance required in the Closure/Post Fund
have recently been reassessed. It has been determined that the impact of inflation on the
required balance needs to be increased. Hence the expense for Closure/Post Closure is
being increased by $480,000.
Initiative#
The Health Department assessment increase of $.75 was approved in the 2010 budget. It
was not implemented on 01 January 2010. Rather it will be implemented on 01 July 2010.
Therefore the Health Department assessment budget will be reduced by $172,500.
The State Department of Environmental Quality assessment increase wasn't approved by the
state legislature. Therefore the incremental expense of$66,000 approved in the 2010 Landfill
budget is being removed. Fleet maintenance continues to be a challenge because needed
preventative maintenance was missed. Corrective action was taken. Fleet is being increased
by $66,000.
Interdepartmental transfers are increasing by $7,978. This is driven by changes in useage
patterns.
Several capital requests are being made. They relate to safety concerns. Adding safety
chutes at the Transfer Station will provide additional protection for SLCounty employees who
are moving materials into and around the Transfer Station shredder. The cost will be$55,000.
Additional safety chutes at the Citizen Unloading Facility will provide added protection to
prevent equipment from falling into the shredder. The cost will be $55,000. The 33rd South
intersection, leading into the Transfer Station, is congested with hauler equipment as well as
cement support equipment used by Quickrete, an adjacent business. The proposed
modification to the 33rd South intersection will provide better ingress and egress to the
Transfer Station. The cost is expected to be $100,000.
Three pieces of equipment purchased between 2003 and 2006, will be rebuilt in 2010. The
rebuild will increase the useful life of the equiment by two to three years. Therefore, the cost
of the equipment rebuild should be capitalized. The cost to rebuild the compactor is
$109,000. The cost to rebuild the dozer is $101,000. The cost to rebuild the track hoe is
$34,650.
