CITY COUNCIL AGENDA MEMO
MEETING DATE OF MAY 7TII 2013
THE CITY OF FAYETTEVILLE, ARKANSAS
Subject: Resolution Authorizing Application for a 2013 ADEQ E-Waste Grant for $25,000 for an E-Waste
Coupon Redemption Program.
RECOMMENDATION
Fayetteville City Administration recommends authorizing application for a 2013 Arkansas Department of Environmental
Quality (ADEQ) E-waste grant for $25,000 for an E-waste coupon redemption program.
BACKGROUND
The Arkansas Department of Environmental Quality administers the Arkansas Computer and Electronic Recycling Grants
Program and utilizes the Regional Solid Waste Management Districts to help administer the grant program. For our
region we will be applying through the Boston Mountain Solid Waste District. Municipalities are eligible and encouraged
to apply for grants with this program. Applications are now being accepted through Boston Mountain and funds will be
eligible to awarded recipients upon written approval through ADEQ. Fayetteville applied for a similar grant at the end of
2012.
DISCUSSION
The program would continue the partnership with the Washington County Office of Environmental Affairs and print e-
waste recycling coupons which can be redeemed at the Washington County HHW site in south Fayetteville where the e-
waste is collected for recycling. The current charge for e-waste collected at this site is $5 per unit. The coupons would be
printed showing the $5 value for recycling of e-waste at the site. Distribution would begin upon grant money being
dispersed until the coupons are exhausted. The coupons could be handed out at promotional events, given out in
appreciation for volunteer service with the recycling program, the Mayor's booth at the Farmers Market on the square,
school recycling events and many other City and County related events.
BUDGET IMPACT
The recycling grant awards are not matching grants, so no City funds are obligated with this request. Upon approval and
award of the grant a budget adjustment will be requested to recognize the grant revenue and a capital project will be
created.
