HomeMy WebLinkAboutItem 21 - Household Hazardous Waste ProgramMEMO TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: BRUNO RUMBELOW, CITY MANAGER 6`
MEETING DATE: AUGUST 5, 2014
SUBJECT: APPROVAL OF FIRST AMENDMENT TO THE ANNUAL
INTERLOCAL AGREEMENT - CITY OF FORT WORTH
HOUSEHOLD HAZARDOUS WASTE PROGRAM
City Council consider the approval of the First Amendment to the Interlocal Agreement with
the City of Fort Worth for continued participation in their Environmental Collection Center
and Household Hazardous Waste Program, authorize the City Manager to execute said
renewal and take any necessary action.
FUNDING SOURCE:
Funds are programmed in the FY15 Budget, Account 100-44540-415-5; Professional
Services in an amount of $51,500.
BACKGROUND:
Grapevine has participated with Fort Worth in providing a Household Hazardous Waste
(HHW) collection facility and program for the past several years. The City of Fort Worth
Environmental Collection Center (ECC) accepts HHW from citizens of participating cities
directly, provides for local collection events, and provides logistical support for the sound
disposal of hazardous waste. The current contract was approved in 2013 for an initial one-
year period with three additional, one-year renewal options.
The cost charged by the ECC for each household that utilized the service was
$47/household for Fiscal Year 2014 and will remain $47/household for Fiscal Year 2015. In
Grapevine, 642 households have participated in the program so far through two quarters in
FY 2014 at a disposal cost of $30,174. The City of Grapevine committed sufficient
resources to host a local collection event on March 29, 2014 with 649 households
participating during the event, and 488 dropping off HHW for disposal. Adequate funds
have been earmarked for FY 2015 to provide for 1,095 households.
The HHW program provides our citizens with an environmentally sound method of disposal.
Without this alternative, hazardous waste could be illegally disposed of in the solid waste
collection system, stormwater drainage system, or the wastewater collection and treatment
system. The United States and the State of Texas have promulgated rules that require
cities to manage pollution in stormwater runoff; and the HHW Program is utilized as a
component of the comprehensive Storm Water Quality Management Program.
Staff recommends approval of the First Amendment to the Interlocal Agreement that will
continue Grapevine's participation in Fort Worth's Environmental Collection Center and
Household Hazardous Waste Program.
