ANALYSIS
This resolution appropriates $120,000 of unanticipated revenue in the Solid Waste Fund for the
purpose of providing additional funding for single stream recycling costs. The City currently has
a contract with Casella Recycling at a not-to-exceed amount of $400,000. The rates for single
stream recycling are increasing and it is anticipated that the $400,000 of funds appropriated will
be depleted by the end of March. On February 15, 2019, at the Board of Public Works
Recycling Committee meeting, there was a vote to request this supplemental appropriation. An
increase to the current contract will be submitted to the Finance Committee for approval.
Charter Sec. 53 permits specific non-budget, supplementary appropriations. No public hearing is
required under Charter Sec. 56-a. A two-thirds vote is required under Charter Sec. 56-b for an
item or amount not in the mayor’s budget. A roll call is required under Charter Sec. 49. The
supplementary appropriation is part of the combined annual budget for spending cap purposes.
