BUDGET/STAFF IMPACT: The cost for this agreement is $15,000 for the remainder of 2021 — that fee is necessary to cover the disposal cost of the hazardous materials. The HHW drop off will be staffed by the existing personnel at the Happy Hollow Recycling Drop off center which is located across the parking lot from the proposed HHW collection location.
