NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CORPUS CHRISTI: SECTION 1.

Bray, Jr., City Attorney DATE: September 13, 1995 RE: Correction of Publisher's and Scrivener's Errors; Ordinance No. 022307, Commercial Collection and Landfill Disposal Fee Schedules (Solid Waste Services Fee Increases) It has come to the attention of the Legal Department that a scrivener's error, prompted by a publishing error, was made in the form of Ordinance No. 022307, effecting increases in certain solid waste services, and passed by the Council on July 25, 1995. The error pertains to charges for rear door pickup service. Review of this department's records, the agenda memorandum, and consultation with Solid Waste Services confirm no intent and no representation to the Council to increase charges for rear door pickup of any type service. The existing fee of $10.75 should have remained unchanged. Through a publishing error, this charge was erroneously shown on the ordinance to be $11.01. The erroneous figure, $11.01, was picked up by myself, from the published ordinance, and carried forward to the form presented to Council and passed July 25, 1995. The correct charge under Sec. 21-18, type (8) is $10.75. For placement in the appropriate records of your office, I am attaching to this memo a corrected page to reflect the true and correct charge of $10.75 for rear door pickup. This item appears as the last line, first page of the ordinance in question. Please retain this memorandum in your records as cell. Approved: Jame* R.

Memorandum SUBJECT: Solid Waste Fees Date: July 25, 1995 AGENDA ITEM: Ordinance - Amending the Corpus Christi Code of Ordinances, Section 21-18 and Section 21-19, to implement new residential, business, and commercial collections and landfill disposal fee schedules; Providing for publication and effective date of August 1, 1995, and severance; and declaring an emergency. Background Staff has determined that continued brush grinding operations and the addition of a heavier motorized compactor in the 1995-96 budget will result in higher compaction levels and enable the postponement of the previously proposed construction of cell #6 until the 1996-97 budget year. Staff has also determined that the contract for construction of cell #5 can be awarded in the upcoming fiscal year and the award of the contract for construction of cell #6 in the following year (96-97). LStaff has determined that all essential improvements both at the Elliott Landfill and the new L• can be completed upon approval of the following rate increase: • $0.50 per month for residential customers • $3.19 per ton for commercial customers During the early part of the 1995-96 Fiscal Year, a bond issue in the amount of approximately $7,945,000 will be proposed covering the following items: • Final cover (Elliott Landfill) $3,045,000 • Design & permitting services $3,000,000 • Liner Construction $1,300,000 • Gas Extraction & Monitoring -Phase I $600.000 • Total FY 96-96 $7,945,000 In fiscal Year 1998-99, an additional bond issue in the amount of approximately $19,360,000 will be proposed covering the following items: • Final Cover (Elliott Landfill) $4,060,000 • Land Acquisition $5,300,000 • Landfill Construction $10.000.000 • Total FY 98-99 $19,360,000 4 The revenues from the rate increase would be placed in a Landfill Reserve Fund. The proposed fee increases plus operating revenues to be generated willbe sufficient to cover the debt service of both bond issues at least through 2002. Recommendation: Approval of this ordinance will provide the funding necessary to meet the solid waste needs of the community up to and beyond the year 2000. Gl/ W.
