DISCUSSION Last year the City was awarded a grant from the State Integrated Waste Management Board for collection and recycling household hazardous waste. With the grant, residents would be allowed to dispose of their paints, pesticides, chemicals and other household products during the neighborhood cleanups coordinated by Neighborhood Improvement. The City hired Curbside Inc. to provide the required services including collecting the waste, packaging it for transport and recycling the waste as appropriate. Curbside's services will continue through the thirty-two month term of the grant. Due to the volume of household hazardous waste put out at the curbside during the neighborhood events, the State has recommended and the contractor has agreed to provide these services on an appointment basis. This will allow residents to gather and put their waste out for collection at an agreed upon time, still providing residents with a convenient method of removing these products from their homes and garages. 25G-1 Amendment to Agreement for Collection and Recycling Household Hazardous Waste July 18, 2005 Page 2 ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT There is no environmental impact associated with this action. FISCAL IMPACT With this amendment the contractor will be reimbursed on a per-stop basis instead of a per event basis. The amount of the grant will remain at $200,000.
