PURPOSE: To provide an opportunity for each jurisdiction to present an update of local solid
waste management issues and specifically to discuss each Town's intentions with regard to the
provision of future recycling /waste reduction services or waste transfer operations.
BACKGROUND: The following updates are provided by each jurisdiction:
Town of Chapel Hill
On June 21, 2013, a Request for Proposals (RFP) for Implementation of Recycling Services and
Development of Transfer Station was issued as a joint initiative among the Towns of Chapel Hill,
Carrboro and Hillsborough. During a Work Session on November 6, 2013, Chapel Hill Town
Council received results from the recycling portion of the RFP (see Attachment A). Based on
preliminary cost data from the County, the cost of the County's curbside recycling services is
comparable with the proposal costs submitted from the private firms. To better understand the
County's cost data, Town Council has requested to receive additional information about the
specific services provided by the County's recycling program to Chapel Hill residents and the
projected program costs over the next five years.

(Please note that Attachment E from County staff provides follow -up information from the
November 6 Town Council meeting and a previous meeting involving staff.)
Town of Carrboro
The Carrboro Board of Aldermen received an update on recycling services at its November 12,
2013 meeting. The Board expressed its intent to continue the partnership with Orange County
for recycling services and voted to authorize staff to negotiate a letter of intent with Orange
County to charge and collect a fee for urban curbside recycling within the town limits. The
Board also expressed an interest in working with the County to explore an organic (food waste)
recycling /composting program. Town staff was authorized to submit a grant application to the
North Carolina Department of Environment & Natural Resources for Roll -carts to support the
recycling program and /or a potential future organic recycling /composting program.
Town of Hillsborough
At this point it is Hillsborough's intention to collaborate with Orange County for the enhanced
recycling service. Over the years, Orange County Recycling has provided excellent service to
Town residents and the Town plans on entering into the interlocal agreement for recycling /waste
reduction and solid waste.
Orange County
Orange County staff provides updates on the following items:
Storm Debris Management Planning
County solid waste staff has recently obtained approval from the BOCC for two new emergency
storm debris processing sites. One is conveniently located on Millhouse Road, across from the
Chapel Hill Operations Center. The second is located on Mincey Road, north off of Highway 57.
There is also a smaller site at the existing landfill on Eubanks Road.
The County has also finalized agreements with two firms for Removal, Reduction, Recycling
and /or Disposal of Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Eligible Debris in the
event of an emergency storm event. County Solid Waste staff has been working for the past
two years with the County Emergency Services Department to improve the emergency debris
management planning and preparedness, including updating the Disaster Debris Annex to the
County's Comprehensive Emergency Response Plan.
Upgrade to Eubanks Road Solid Waste Convenience Center
The Eubanks Road Solid Waste Convenience Center is currently in the advanced planning
stages to receive a complete reconstruction and modernization similar to that conducted at the
Walnut Grove Church Road Solid Waste Convenience Center in northern Orange County. The
new center will be at the same location of the existing center.
Below is a list of features incorporated into the proposed improvements for this project:
1. Improved traffic flow to increase onsite disposal activity efficiency;
2. Improved customer safety with the use of separate levels for users and service vehicles;
'
3. Improved transportation of waste off site using compactors to increase load capacity and
reduce the number of vehicle trips;
4. Improved user experience with paved surfaces limiting dust, and permanent /movable site
signage to direct customers, and lower material loading height
5. Incorporation of the Household Hazardous Waste (HHW) program into the site to provide
additional operational hours for collection (moving HHW from existing location on the
south side of Eubanks Road);
6. Relocate the landfill scales to the north side of Eubanks road to position them closer to
the active construction and demolition landfill, reducing the traffic on Eubanks Road;
7. Create a single entrance that will be shared between the convenience center and the
landfill to minimize the number of driveways;
8. Increase on site queuing to greatly reduce the potential for traffic to back up onto
Eubanks Road;
9. Possible extension of sanitary sewer and water to the site;
10.Addition of recyclable materials such as plastic film, residential food waste, cooking oil,
textiles, etc., and
11. Generally, shifting most operations from south of Eubanks Road to the northern side and
away from surrounding neighborhoods.
County staff has recently met with Chapel Hill Planning staff to introduce the preliminary site
plan and discuss the permitting process. Plans are also being made to develop a temporary
waste /recycling location to use while the existing center is under construction, although there
may be reduced services available during this interim construction period. The construction
schedule has not yet been developed.
Interlocal Agreement for Waste Management in Orange County
County and Chapel Hill solid waste staff collaborated on preparation of a draft outline for a new
Interlocal Agreement for Solid Waste Management /Recycling (Attachment D) in anticipation of
changes necessitated by the closure of the Municipal Solid Waste landfill and the restructuring
of financing mechanisms for the Rural and Urban Curbside Services and the Multi- family
Service due to elimination of portions of the 3 -R Fee. Over several meetings last winter, the
staffs examined potential issues of interest so that the Managers and elected boards could
consider the process by which a new Interlocal Agreement could be more fully developed,
negotiated and adopted. This outline was submitted to Carrboro and Hillsborough solid waste
staff for their consideration. Town and County Managers also received this draft outline.
It is critical that a formal Interlocal Agreement be adopted by all parties before July 1, 2014, but
sooner would be preferable, so as to clarify and inform all parties of responsibilities, obligations,
limitations, etc. with regard to solid waste management and recycling in Orange County,
including delineating funding sources. It would also be of interest to involve the University of
North Carolina in the discussions at some point as well.
Roll -carts for Curbside Proarams
County staff is ready to proceed to implement roll carts in both the Urban and Rural Curbside
Recycling programs, following resolution of the organizational and financial arrangements with
the Towns. It will not be reasonable to assume that both program implementations can be
E
performed simultaneously, so staff has recommended proceeding first with implementation of
the Urban program because:
• There is no current funding source for Fiscal Year 2014/15 curbside or multi - family
services
• Affects more residents
• Assumed easier to implement as Town residents have more experience using roll carts
for garbage; less intense public education and outreach efforts (if Towns choose bi-
weekly more education and outreach will be necessary)
• More efficient distribution due to density
• Long time expressions of interest and advocacy for roll carts
• Long delivery time (8 -10 months) required for acquisition of new collection vehicles for
Rural program indicates that there is time to address Urban program in that period of
waiting
• Roll cart grant process requires that, as a condition of the grant, the program be
implemented within one year of the contract being signed
• County is ready to proceed to bid Urban service and roll carts
• Rerouting will be somewhat easier for Urban with fewer density related challenges
The staff effort involved in planning and executing these cart implementations will be significant
and staff wants the process to proceed smoothly, with minimal disruptions and difficulties.
Therefore it is strongly advised that these two program cart conversions be done sequentially.
It is likely to require several months to successfully negotiate a new comprehensive Interlocal
Agreement for Solid Waste and Recycling. Attachment E is a Letter of Intent for the Towns
consideration that would allow the County to begin the Urban Curbside roll cart implementation
process to allow for a July 1, 2014 implementation. This approach was discussed by the
Managers who agreed that it be presented to their respective governing boards for
consideration.
Financing of Solid Waste, Recycling and Waste Reduction Services
At present, it is the County's intention to maintain the Solid Waste Convenience Center Fee and
the Basic Recycling Fee (3 -R). The Rural Fee (3 -R) will no longer be assessed and may be
replaced by a Solid Waste Tax District. The financing as well as management of the Urban
Curbside and Multi- family Recycling programs are currently under study by the Towns. County
and Town discussions have concluded that the three Towns could assess the Urban and Multi-
family Fee through statutory authority not available to the County. No final determinations have
yet been made. All decisions must be made with the objective of implementation by July 1,
2014.
On November 19, 2013 the Board of Commissioners received a progress update regarding the
County's intent to continue to provide urban curbside and multi - family recycling services for the
Towns (see Attachment C). The County estimated cost for providing the urban curbside
recycling services is competitive with the proposals received from private haulers and there
appear to be some additional advantages for the County to continue managing this service.
County staff is working with the Towns to proceed immediately with the Request for Proposals
(RFP) process for collection services and cart acquisition by December 31, 2013. It will take
approximately six months to complete the implementation process to convert to roll carts,
including the bidding of the collection service and possible installation of a new service provider,
and to execute a comprehensive community education and outreach program.
The financial impact of a new comprehensive Interlocal Agreement is not clear at this time and
will depend on final decisions of the various Boards involved. The roll carts for the Urban
program are expected to cost approximately $1,043,250, minus about $214,000 in municipal roll
cart grants.
• Cost of weekly collection service is estimated at about $682,000 annually, which is
estimated to be $60.00 annually or $5.00 /month.
• If the Towns choose to go to bi- weekly curbside recycling the estimated annual fee per
household is estimated to be $50.00 or $4.17 /month.
• The Multi- family program is estimated at this time to remain at about $19 /year /unit (or
$1.58 /month).
FINANCIAL IMPACT: There are no financial impacts related to the presentation of solid waste
updates or general discussion of solid waste services, facilities or programs.
RECOMMENDATION(S): The County Manager recommends that the Boards receive the
updates and discuss issues, options, needs and processes relative to addressing current and
future solid waste management matters in Orange County.

Summary of Solid Waste and Recycling
Services — April 2013
INFORMATION CONTACT:
Michael Talbert, 919 - 245 -2308
Gayle Wilson, 919 - 968 -2885
John Roberts, 919 - 245 -2318
PURPOSE: To update the Board of Commissioners on progress between the Towns and
County regarding urban curbside and multi - family recycling services.
BACKGROUND: Over the past several months, the Towns and County have been considering
various options with regard to the future of the long term recycling and waste reduction
partnership and how Urban Curbside and Multi- family services would be funded. Previous 3 -R
Fee funding for those municipal services, along with the Rural Curbside program, were
determined on the advice of legal counsel to not to be consistent with recent state court legal
opinions.
The Towns, facing potential loss of County funding and management of these programs, elected
to evaluate other options for obtaining these recycling services through the issuance of a
Request for Proposals. The Towns' Managers and staffs have been evaluating the proposals
received, had reached preliminary conclusions and wished to discuss and clarify various service
and cost issues with County staff. On November 1, 2013 the County and Towns Managers and
their respective staffs met.
There was the following consensus from the meeting:
• The County cost for providing the urban curbside recycling services was competitive with
the proposals received from private haulers and that there may be some additional
advantages for the County to continue managing this service;
• County staff will proceed immediately with the Request for Proposals (RFP) process for
collection services and cart acquisition by December 31, 2013. County staff has
23
estimated an implementation process of six months to complete the conversion to roll
carts, including the bidding of the collection service and possible installation of a new
service provider, and to execute a comprehensive community education and outreach
program. A draft letter of intent is attached to move urban curbside recycling forward,
including the purchase of roll carts, while an Interlocal Agreement is crafted.
• The multi - family recycling collection service is proposed to be provided at the existing
rate of $19 /year /household with services provided by County staff and equipment.
• Each Town will apply for the state roll cart grants that could total up to $214,000 of the
expected $1,043,000 cart purchase expense. The County will assist the Towns with the
grant applications, but the Towns will be the applicants for their respective grants A
procedure will be developed to allow the County to purchase the carts using any grant
proceeds and County funds. The County will own, distribute, and maintain the roll carts
for the Towns.
• The County Attorney will draft the interim agreement in cooperation with each Town
Attorney and each Manager to approve prior to holiday break.
• The County and the Towns will proceed to finalize a new Interlocal Agreement (staff
outline attached) as soon as possible in early 2014.
The Chapel Hill Town Council conducted a work session on November 6, 2014 to discuss the
recycling proposals received in response to its Request for Proposals for Recycling and
Request for Proposals for Development of a Transfer Station. A power point of the presentation
to the Town Council is attached.
County and Town Managers is eager to solve the urban curbside recycling issue and to more
forward again with county wide recycling and waste reduction programs and services.
FINANCIAL IMPACT: Full financial impact of a new comprehensive Interlocal Agreement is not
clear at this time and will depend on final decisions of the various Boards involved. The roll
carts are expected to cost approximately $1,043,250, minus about $214,000 in municipal roll
cart grants, plus debt service paid over 60 months. The cost of a newly bid weekly collection
service is estimated at about $682,000 annually. The estimated annual fee for weekly curbside
recycling per household is about $60 (or $5 /month). The Multi- family program is estimated at
this time to remain at about $19 /year /unit (or $1.58 /month). The estimated annual fee for bi-
weekly curbside recycling per household is about $50 (or $4.17 /month).
RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends that the Board authorize:
1. The Manager to execute the attached Letter of Intent with the Towns of Chapel Hill,
Carrboro and Hillsborough when approved by the Towns;
2. The County Attorney, working with the Town Attorneys, to prepare an interim agreement
that would allow the County to proceed to expedite implementation of the roll carts and
new collection service for the Urban Curbside Program with the objective being full
implementation by July 1, 2014 and authorize the Manager to execute the agreement;
and
3. The Manager to award the bid for the roll carts not to exceed $1,100,000.

Letter of Intent between Orange County and the Town of
approved this day of , 2013.
Orange County is very interested in continuing our long and successful
partnership with the Town with regard to recycling and waste reduction. Our
state - leading programs are the model for success in reducing local government
waste disposal and our longstanding local recycling partnership is a model of
intergovernmental cooperation and effectiveness.
The Town wishes to continue participation in the recycling program. The most
timely and least complicated manner in which to proceed would be for the Town
to authorize the County to charge and collect a fee for urban curbside recycling
within their town limits. The County would provide turnkey urban curbside
recycling services including new roll carts for all Town residents. The Town
Attorney has agreed that municipalities have the authority charge for the urban
curbside recycling services and authorize the County to provide the services.
Orange County Intends to:
• Immediately proceed with an Requests for Proposals (RFP) for Collection
Services and Roll Cart acquisition (carts may be available by piggybacking)
• Immediately assist the Towns with applications for DENR Roll Carts Grants
Draft an interim agreement for the Purchase of Roll Carts using grant funds
with each Town whereby
o The County will pay the Town an amount equal to the invoice
received by the Town for the roll carts purchased by the County for
the Town solely for use in the Urban Curbside Recycling Program,
and
o Expect to receive the funds resulting from a grant awarded to the
Town for the purpose of implementation of curbside recyclable
collection to offset the County expenditure on roll carts
Negotiate in good faith with the Towns to finalize a new comprehensive
Solid Waste Interlocal Agreement as soon as possible but no later than
June 30, 2014
• Implement the conversion to roll carts for the urban curbside recycling
programs as soon as contracts have been approved or purchase authority
provided, but no later than July 1, 2014
The Town Intends to:
R•�
• Immediately apply for DENR Roll Carts Grants with the County's
Assistance as needed
Negotiate in good faith with the County to execute an interim agreement for
the Purchase of Roll Carts for each Town whereby
• The Town will notify the County of its receipt of an invoice for roll
carts that were bid and ordered by the County for use in the Town's
curbside recycling program
• Receive payment from the County for the invoiced amount and then
pay the invoice, submitting proof of payment to the County
• Remit any funds received by the Town as a result of a roll cart grant
award to the County within 30 days of receipt of the grant funds.
Negotiate in good faith with the County to finalize a new comprehensive
Solid Waste Interlocal Agreement as soon as possible but no later than
June 30, 2014
• Assist the County with the implementation of a conversion to roll carts for
the urban curbside recycling programs as soon as contracts have been
approved but no later than July 1, 2014 not sure the meaning here
• Include in the Town's 2014/2015 Budget Ordinance a section authorizing
the County to charge and collect a fee for urban curbside and multi - family
recycling within their town limits and provide urban curbside and multi-
family recycling services including new roll carts for all Town residents

Memorandum
To: Michael Talbert, Interim County Manager
From: Gayle Wilson, Solid Waste Director
Subject: Follow -up to Key Questions Raised with Regard to Urban Curbside &
Multi - Family Services as Provided by Orange County Community Recycling
Program
Date: November 14, 2013
During the November 1 Managers meeting and the November 6 Town of Chapel Hill work
session several issues were raised relative to the proposals received by the towns and county
provided services. This memorandum will attempt to address the key issues that were identified
from the meetings. There may be other issues or questions as discussions continue.
County staff will defer to the Town of Chapel Hill for any substantive analysis or assessment of
the proposals the Towns received in response to their RFP issued July 2013 and will offer only
information on county services and general observations of issues raised regarding the services
under consideration. In the end, that which the Towns consider best for them is what matters
most.
Key Issues Raised at Meetings
1) Towns Interest in a 5 -year price /fee guarantee from the County
The County was not asked to submit a bid in response to the Town's Request for Proposals and
has not invested the time to perform the necessary comprehensive financial analysis to come to
reliable long -term program cost conclusions consistent with the Towns' RFP criteria. Given the
current program /funding uncertainties and absent recent reliable County initiated service RFP's
and cart bid proposals, it would be a difficult task to perform with an acceptable margin of error.
It is likely that the private company proposers will seek to include fuel surcharges or other CPI
based cost increases in final contract negotiations, so even these proposals may not represent
firm 5 -year price commitments.
If such a long term commitment is required prior to obtaining binding current cart and service
costs staff will be obligated to make conservative estimates and possibly include a fuel
surcharge clause. For example, Multi- family fee of $19 /year /unit has been in place for six years
with no evidence at the present time that the fee would need to be increased anytime soon. The
program is stable and not subject to key and controlling unknown factors of cart and service
contract costs. However, if required to make a firm 5 -year commitment, staff would recommend
a fee of $20 /year /unit to cover expense contingencies, residents might end up paying more than
necessary. With the lack of a firm cost commitment for carts and collection service, it would be
necessary to incorporate even more conservative contingencies in the 5 -year fee guarantee for
Urban Curbside services. Please advise if this 5 -year fee committment is required and county
staff will proceed to conduct the necessary long -term financial analysis. Note that an Interlocal
Agreement could also be used to address limitations on fee increases.

2) Interest in bi- weekly curbside collection
The County is willing to provide the frequency of service desired by the three Towns, as long as
the three Towns can come to an agreement so that services can be uniform among all three.
The County is willing to issue Request for Proposals for Urban Curbside service that allows
requesting price quotes for both weekly and bi- weekly, or if the Towns already know that they
prefer bi- weekly, then the County would simply request bi- weekly proposals and begin
developing education and outreach materials and revising collection schedules accordingly.
Since the County has not bid for this service it would be difficult to provide a firm fee quotation
to the Towns without a formal RFP; especially if the fee is to be a firm five -year quotation.
Based on staff's best available information and assessment, it is believed that bi- weekly
curbside service could be provided in FY 2014/15 for an estimated fee of $50 /hh /year versus
an estimated fee for weekly service of about $60 /hh /year. Again, without a firm collection
service bid, County staff would be highly reluctant to guarantee this fee rate for a 5 -year period.
We believe that the implementation timeline for either service could be the same, six months
from notice to the County of the decision to proceed with the County partnership and a
supporting written assurance /commitment. We also believe that for the first few months that
conversion to bi- weekly will require more support and education than weekly, i.e. picking up
missed collections, of which there will likely be more with bi- weekly. We have added more
education and outreach funds and assumed more missed collection call pickups, adding about
$1.00 to the annual fee.
While it is clear that bi- weekly contract collection costs will be less expensive than weekly
contract collection costs, County staff would still suggest that the Towns consider the
advantages and disadvantages of conversion to bi- weekly service prior to deciding. County staff
is not trying to influence the Towns toward either option and is fully capable of providing either
service. The Towns should be aware of the subtle operational and implementation differences
or implications regarding collection frequency. Issues that could be considered are:
➢ Recycling markets continue to accept more varieties of material at the curb. Future
items could include bulky plastics and small scrap metal. Homes in the Urban Program
already average over 300 lbs. annually and it could be possible that homes could
average over 450 lbs. annually with carts. It is possible that added materials and
increased volumes could result in overflowing carts and lack sufficient volume for
potential future material additions
➢ Carts allow more volume for bulky items like cardboard that previously was not
containerized. Some families may not have capacity for two weeks' worth of cardboard
➢ Implementing recycling carts at a bi- weekly frequency after twenty -four years of weekly
would increase the degree and intensity of new information necessary as part of
education and outreach efforts related to carts, would be inconsistent with current
weekly recycling collection schedules and would also not correspond to existing weekly
garbage collection cart services
➢ It is possible that should the original decision on frequency be determined unacceptable
to the Towns after a period of time, a collection frequency change could be made in the
future, given comprehensive education and outreach efforts, revision to the collection
service contract and a comprehensive rerouting /change of collection schedules
➢ Most Urban Curbside route set -out rates are between 70 -80 %, meaning more than 70%
place out their bins on any given day; therefore only 20 -30% do not set bins out every
week and some simply don't recycle; will bi- weekly be sufficient for those high
volume /frequency recyclers?
32
➢ Those who forget to set out on a bi- weekly schedule would result in a resident going a
month between collections and /or requesting a special collection
➢ Convenience has always been key to recycling program success
➢ Unlike using bins, it is not easy for a resident to haul a roll cart to a recycling drop -off
center and there will likely be more missed service complaints with bi- weekly
➢ Should the Towns move to PAYT in the future, additional cart capacity may be needed
➢ Weekly garbage collection and bi- weekly recycling collection may dis- incentivize the
casual recycler.
3) Which recycling collection option is of lowest cost to the Towns
As stated above, County staff has not conducted an independent analysis of the Town
proposals, as it will be up to the Towns to make their own determinations with regard to cost
and value. If the single deciding factor is lowest cost, it is unlikely that the County program will
be the absolute cheapest absent other value added elements. The primary County objectives
are to aggressively pursue community waste reduction goals, provide the highest quality
customer service, continue to strive to achieve operational efficiencies using and improving
industry best management practices and to minimize fees.
County staff suggests that the Towns consider all costs when comparing vendor proposals and
county programs. For the most part, the proposals received by the Towns include the actual
cost of material collection and can also include roll cart acquisition. Otherwise, it appears that
any other ongoing support components of a successful collection service would be borne by
each Town:
➢ Preparation of roll cart and collection service bid /RFP materials and administering the
acquisition process, including obtaining board approvals
➢ Implementation costs and staff time such as recording cart assignments through
establishment of a new Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tagging and tracking
system, establishing a database, troubleshooting implementation problems and a strong
education and outreach effort to include advertising, brochures, community forum,
mailings to all residents, etc.
➢ Contract administration including reviewing and paying invoices and coordination among
the three Towns
➢ Ongoing education and outreach efforts and customer service availability to receive calls
for missed collection and general questions about service, to communicate problems to
the proper supervisor and to follow up and verify resolution
➢ Responding to complaints /complaint investigation
➢ Purchase of a handheld RFID scanner
➢ Maintaining cart inventory and assignments, including physical cart storage
➢ Overseeing and coordination of cart performance and warranty provisions
➢ Cart distribution, repair and tracking
➢ Cleaning up material spills, collecting missed homes, etc. if vendor unavailable or non-
responsive
➢ Maintaining and preparing reports and data base management
➢ Overseeing ongoing route expansions, new residents and other adjustments
➢ Coordination with other existing county -wide programs such as drop -off centers
➢ Managing resident confusion and uncertainty with regard to both Towns and County
managing separate recycling programs
33
Also included allocated to each county solid waste division and shared among all programs and
services (recycling, sanitation and landfill) are the enterprise funds overhead /indirect costs.
These costs include:
• Charges by the General Fund that is essentially what the enterprise fund pays for
Orange County for County Manager / Attorney / Board / Finance / Human
Resources / Purchasing / Clerk / IT support and represents about 20% of the
entire Environment Support Division budget
• departmental insurance
• utilities
• Director and administrative /customer service staff
• education and outreach staff and expenses that includes staffing and provision of
recycling services at numerous public events /festivals throughout the year in all
jurisdictions
• environmental enforcement staff
• janitorial services
• administrative building debt service
• emergency storm debris planning
• Towns /County development review and permitting services
• and a myriad of other expenses that are shared among each Division and
program
This discussion of costs has focused primarily on curbside recycling, but a very similar situation
with regard to Town responsibilities exists relative to the Multi- family program, should the Towns
also decide to assume this program responsibility to contract out for this service. From a brief
review of the bids it is believed that the County cost estimate for Multi- family service is less than
any of the vendor proposals, even when including full administrative and operational support
expenses. It is also believed that the County cost estimate for curbside recycling is very
competitive with private proposals received.
County program estimates include all of the associated costs of managing the programs and
include no hidden expenses to the Towns. It is the same true turn -key recycling service that the
Solid Waste Department has provided during twenty -four years of Curbside and almost twenty
years of Multi- family service. If one looks objectively at the Urban Curbside and Multi- family
programs together and factors in all costs, County staff believes it will be clear as to which
service option will provide the most value to the Towns. Alternatively, are the Towns prepared
to assume administrative responsibility for the programs beginning July 1, 2014?
4) If not the lowest cost when compared to the proposals received, what are the reasons
that the Towns should conclude that the County program is preferable; what makes
the County Curbside and Multi - family programs better
In addition to the comprehensive and inclusive cost components presented in Item 3 above that
would have to be handled by each town there are other benefits to continued partnering with
Orange County and participation in the Orange Community Recycling Program. These can be
viewed from the perspective of:
➢ Value — The value of the Orange County managed recycling services is the benefit of
centralized, dedicated and uniform administration of programs and services that are
integrated so as to mutually support and enrich all of the broad range of waste reduction
services provided to county residents, businesses and institutions. There is cohesion
and integration of planning, communication and execution, and an experience and
commitment that are unequaled. This benefit includes a consolidated and reinforcing
C
education and outreach program, one -stop recycling and waste reduction shopping and
the statewide recognition of our local programs and their unique level of achievement.
Orange County residents hear the same recycling message and are able to recycle the
same material whether they are at home, school, or work. Town residents also
appreciate their local program's achievements and the ease in which they can obtain
information about or otherwise communicate with recycling staff about their service.
This is a major contributor to the establishment and perpetuation of our local culture of
waste reduction and resource preservation.
Further, comprehensive data collection and management (soon to be enhanced by
RFID) provides a single source of program information and reporting and a web site that
includes the entire gamut of local programs. Through the past 24+ years, all residents,
both rural and urban, have come to expect and rely on the County -wide integrated
nature of the program. The long partnership between the Towns and the County
illustrates to our own residents, as well as the state at large, that our local governments
place a priority on environmental responsibility and performance. This unified approach
will be of additional importance as we move more seriously toward discussions of long-
term regional solutions to waste disposal with our neighboring jurisdictions.
Also relating to value is the stability provided by the uniformity and integration of local
recycling services. Only the most recent newcomer to our county would have any doubt
whom to contact with any question related to recycling services. Any and all questions
regarding residential hazardous waste, recyclability of various materials, advice on
material preparations for recycling, collection or facility operating schedules, questions
such as what the various materials are recycled into, regulations /rules, etc. are available
from one location, one phone number, one web site and even one email address. Even
suggestions for program improvements, expansions, or notification of problems can be
easily conveyed through a single point of contact. County collection equipment and staff
are located on Eubanks Road and available across programs as necessary to respond
to a critical service need, offering a valuable program redundancy even to contracted
services. As an example, the County works closely with the Town of Chapel Hill to
provide extra collections in the downtown business district during Halloween and
noteworthy athletic events at no extra cost.
An indication as to the value that the county places on recycling services county-
wide is the $1.7 million the county transferred from enterprise fund reserves to
continue funding of the Urban and Rural programs during the funding crisis of the
last budget. The Towns are receiving a package of high performing
services /programs, excellent quality customer service, cost effective operations,
cooperative planning and statewide achievement. This is value that's difficult to
duplicate. It should also be noted that a Town of Chapel Hill's solid waste
consultant indicated in a previous report that the County programs were a very
good value.
➢ Performance — The record of program performance over the past twenty -four plus
years is difficult to question. The array of local programs has steadily grown over this
period to reach the pinnacle of waste reduction statewide, and even regionally. At the
time the 61 % waste reduction goal was established by local Town and County officials,
many believed it was unachievable. Now we currently sit at 59% and in the very near
future envision celebrating reaching that goal and together, setting another, even more
aggressive and challenging goal.
35
This achievement is based on a variety of factors, but most significantly on the strong
support by all county residents and elected officials and the foresight of the elected
officials to organizationally centralize operations and planning into one entity. This
entity proved its success under the leadership of Chapel Hill for years and more
recently under County leadership. Our programmatic successes have been county-
wide successes, not individual jurisdictional successes.
Performance also means program predictability, responsiveness, stability and financial
accountability. Disengaging individual services from the unified program will likely
weaken the operational and planning benefits that now exist.
5) Concern about the County's request for an expedited decision by the Towns and lack
of all questions being addressed prior to the Towns making a commitment throuqh a
letter of intent
There are a number of factors that have led County recycling staff to suggest an expedited
implementation improved Urban Curbside recycling services. Among these factors are:
➢ It has been understood for some time that there was a desire by all three Towns to
convert to roll carts for recycling collection at the earliest opportunity and that it was a
high priority. County staff are prepared to move quickly toward bidding roll carts and
Urban Collection service (RFP and Bid documents nearly finalized) when authorized
by the BOCC; the County needs six (6) months to plan and implement this service
➢ It is very likely that the state grants for roll carts will be cancelled after this fiscal year.
Grant funds are diminishing and NC DENR will start focusing limited funds on other
areas, since most large municipalities have already transitioned to carts. Any grants
received will require implementation within one year
➢ Current Urban Curbside and Multi- family services are funded until July 1, 2014, so it is
assumed that the Town's planning was already moving on an expedited schedule,
whether the final decision is that the Towns will assume responsibility for these
services or will notify the County of interest in continuing with County provided services
➢ The County currently has a considerable potential workload with regard to solid waste
and recycling activities whose timelines, schedules, processes and operations must be
orchestrated consistent with the availability of staff resources and BOCC priorities
➢ Long experience has informed staff that during the summer break is not the best time
to implement broad impact type services where communication with the residents is
paramount. Education & outreach activities related to roll cart implementation,
especially if the Towns move to bi- weekly service, would be less effective given the
absence of many residents during the summer period
➢ The County contract with the current Urban Curbside recycling service provider
expired June 2013 and the program continues on a month to month basis. It is not
desirable to continue indefinitely with this month to month arrangement
County staff would be interested in knowing the Towns' preferred Urban Curbside
implementation schedule. For purpose of balancing County Solid Waste Department various
workload, deadlines and projects, coupled with the County's perception of long -held strong
desire by Towns to expeditiously move to roll carts, County staff considered prioritization of the
Urban Curbside implementation a reasonable suggestion. Staff will accommodate the Towns
desires to the extent possible, and ultimately the BOCC, in consultation with the Towns, will
make decisions and provide staff guidance on matters of implementation timelines. Staff's
primary interest is, as a practical matter, being able to give full attention to implementation
process to assure an efficient, minimally disruptive and resident approving transition to roll carts.
