Of Old Missouri Rd. & Rolling Hills Dr. Keenan): An ordinance to rezone that property described in rezoning petition RZN 17-5803 for approximately 10.86 acres located east of the intersection of Old Missouri Road and Rolling Hills Drive from RSF-4, Residential Single Family, 4 units per acre to NS -G, Neighborhood Services, General. At the .July 6, 2017 City Council Meeting this ordinance was left on the first reading. Alderman Long moved to suspend the rules and go to the second reading. Alderman Marsh seconded the motion. Upon roll call the motion passed unanimously. City Attorney Kit Williams read the ordinance. Andrew Garner, City Planning Director stated one point of clarification I would like to add is that there has been some misinformation that this project would be leading to the development of Rolling Hills extension through the property and that is not the case. This is simply a rezoning to change the zoning map from RSF-4 to NS -G, Neighborhood Services. It is a zoning decision we are not looking at development. Alderman Tennant thanked the Council members for letting the item set for a couple of weeks and for coming out to the tour. He stated this piece of land and rezoning is worth taking our time. He also thanked city staff for the clarification and asked city staff to clarify for the record, this rezoning is in no way tied to any sort of work on Rolling Hills or any sort of plans that may or may not even be in the future for any changes in Rolling Hills Drive. Andrew Garner: That's correct. Alderman Tennant: This spot is a good thing for us to do, but we also need to pay attention to the intersection itself. I will be looking to push for some changes to that intersection and improvements for pedestrian's. This is not the entire piece of property. I think we did our due diligence. I will be in favor of this particular rezoning. Alderman Bunch: I'm glad we took time to go out and visit the site as well. On this piece of property, I think a rezoning is in order. If we rezone this, I think it can allow the type of development that would benefit the neighborhood and make it a more walkable neighborhood. It's a good rezone and it ties in nicely at some point down the road with adding a light or stop sign there. I will be in support of this tonight. Alderman Tennant moved to suspend the rules and go to the third and final reading. Alderman Marsh seconded the motion. Upon roll call the motion passed unanimously. City Attorney Kit Williams read the ordinance. Mayor Jordan asked shall the ordinance pass. Upon roll call the motion passed unanimously. 113 West Mountain Fayetteville, AR 72701 (479) 575-8323 www.fayetteviIIe-ar.gov City Council Meeting Minutes July 18, 2017 Page 4 of 10 Ordinance 5987 as Recorded in the office of the City Clerk New Business: Boston Mountain Solid Waste District: A resolution to approve a one year contract with the Boston Mountain Solid Waste District in the amount of $36,790.00 with automatic renewals for up to five additional one year terms based on a rate of fifty cents per resident per year for Solid Waste Services provided to the City of Fayetteville as a member of the district. Jeff Coles, Recycling and Trash Collection Director gave a brief description of the resolution. The Purchasing Division recently brought to the attention of staff that the local contributions paid to the Boston Mountain Solid Waste District were over the threshold of $20,000 and needed to be approved through City Council to be paid. These contributions have been paid by the City since the inception of the fees and the District in the early 90's. This is now coming to the City Council, to be in compliance with City policies regarding payments over $20,000. Louise Mann, 629 Gray Avenue: Has this been an automatic renewal in the past? Jeff Coles: Yes, this was adopted as a resolution by the board and district in 1993. That was the mechanism that kept this in place. This is to be in compliance with our purchasing policies. Louise Mann: I encourage you to review closely the budget for the Boston Mountain Solid Waste District before handing over this money. I know Robyn well; I know she does good work and I trust her. However, a solid waste district that spends half a million dollars on an office building while allowing one of the best tiny town recycling facilities to be closed may need to review priorities. The St. Paul or Dutton Facility has allowed citizens to not only quit burning or filling hollers with their waste, it has also encouraged people to take responsibility for their discards and physically handle them. Robyn Reed, Boston Mountain Solid Waste District: Thanked the City Council for taking the time to hear the resolution and for supporting them in the many ways that the City does. The St. Paul issue is a Madison County issue. Their County Judge and staff evaluated it, there has been a lot of discussion, and the center has not been closed completely they're adjusting hours. Alderman La Tour: You have a new building? Robyn Reed: We are in the design phases and we have a meeting tomorrow with a construction manager. Hopefully we will start building one soon. I believe you have been out to our facility before and it is pretty old, ran down, passed its age, half the outlets don't work and we have a lot of critters inside, including a snake in my office last year. We are really excited about having a new facility. Alderman La Tour: Congratulations. 113 West Mountain Fayetteville, AR 72701 (479) 575-8323 www.fayetteville-ar.gov City Council Meeting Minutes July 18, 2017 Page 5 of 10 Robyn Reed: Thank you. Alderman Kinion: This has been to the Water, Sewer and Solid Waste Committee and was reviewed. We looked at the services that were offered specifically to the City of Fayetteville and the relationship that we have with the Boston Mountain Solid Waste District, as well as our responsibility to stay in compliance. It has been reviewed and supported by the Solid Waste Committee. Alderman Long: What are the amounts previously paid in the past years? Don Marr, Chief of Staff: It's the same per capita rate fifty cents per, resident. Robyn Reed: It's been the same since 1994. Alderman Long: Do we know the exact amount per Robyn Reed: I believe the resolution has $36,790.00. Don Marr: That's the current. I would have to go back and get the populations for you in those other times. Robyn Reed: It's based off the 2010 population census. Alderman La Tour: Don, the fifty cents assessment per capita, is that passed on to our citizens on their water bill? Don Marr: I believe all our fees are in our rates studies when we do them. Remember this is a rate study that hasn't been updated since 1992 and will be on your agenda in the coming last quarter of this year. It would be included in that along with any other capital requirements. Alderman La Tour: This is a fee that the people of Fayetteville pay every month and it may be a good investment. Robyn Reed: I will go into services that we provide, that I feel like this fund goes towards. We support the Household Hazardous Waste Programs that are offered in our district. We pay for the South Fayetteville Washington County Household Hazardous Waste disposal, as well as sharps disposal, electronics recycling, and waste tire management. We have two full time educators on staff, in partnership with the City of Fayetteville and Washington County. Alderman La Tour: I plan to vote for your resolution, but just out of curiosity, if you were to cease to exist, how would these functions be taken care of? Who would do this if you weren't there? Robyn Reed: If the district wasn't there or myself? 113 West Mountain Fayetteville, AR 72701 (479) 575-8323 www.fayetteviIIe-ar.gov City Council Meeting Minutes July 18, 2017 Page 6 of 10 Alderman La Tour: If we and every other municipality contributes to your financial wellbeing. If we all said we don't want to do this anymore we will do our own thing, would there be other sources of these services for hazardous materials? Jeff Coles: With respect to particularly household hazardous waste, we do not accept household hazardous waste. Alderman La Tour: Does Springdale? Robyn Reed: They accept used motor oil and batteries at their recycling facility, but we pay for the disposal. We collect those and prepare them for shipping. Alderman Marsh: I would like to clarify that this is fifty cents per resident per year. We heard during our Waste Reduction, Diversion and Recycling Master Planning that everyone wanted to see more of an emphasis on education and this is a big part of the education that our citizens were asking for, is that Boston Mountain Solid Waste provide a large portion of education. I think this is a really good value for our citizens. We have had a great relationship with the Solid Waste District. Alderman Marsh moved to approve the resolution.
