Title

Consider a resolution authorizing the Mayor to execute Amendment No. 1 to the Interlocal Agreement with the City of Georgetown for participation in the City's Household Hazardous Waste Program.

 

Body

The City of Round Rock currently provides a Household Hazardous Waste (HHW) Collection Program for residents of the City of Round Rock.  This program allows for monthly scheduled collection events on the first Wednesday of each month and on a Saturday in April of each year.  Each resident can bring a Residential Quantity which means no more than the equivalent of 25 gallons and/or 50 pounds of household hazardous materials and no container over five gallons in size.

The City of Georgetown’s HHW vendor discontinued service on December 22, 2018 resulting in a discontinuation of their HHW program for 2019.  On June 13, 2019, an Interlocal Agreement allowed for the City of Georgetown to participate in the City of Round Rock’s HHW program. This allowed for the issuance of up to 50 vouchers per month for the remaining six months of 2019 to the City of Georgetown.   The City of Georgetown would like to amend the agreement to extend the term of the original agreement for an additional year. 

This agreement will expire on December 31, 2019. The Utilities and Environmental Services is requesting extension of this agreement to December 31, 2020.
