Resolution Approving the Memorandum of Understanding with the Board of County Commissioners of the County of Douglas Regarding the Douglas County Household Hazardous Waste Collection Program [Located in Douglas County]
Body
________________________________________________________________________________
Executive Summary
Castle Rock Water (CRW) staff request Town Council approval of a Resolution (Attachment A) approving a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) (Exhibit 1) between the Town of Castle Rock and Douglas County to participate in the Douglas County Household Hazardous Waste Collection Program with a sponsorship donation of $38,000 for 2024. Protecting our watersheds is a key tactic in CRW’s 2024-2028 Strategic Plan. Participating in the program also allows the Town of Castle Rock to meet annual reporting requirements for waste diversion in our Municipal Separate Storm Sewer (MS4) permit to the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment.
Budget Impact
The budget impact of this MOU is an additional $38,000 to the Stormwater and Wastewater Enterprises which has not been budgeted since Covid. Overall, this is not a large budget impact and contributes to an important regulatory function for the Stormwater Enterprise, compliance with CRW’s MS4 permit.
Funding for this program will be provided through the following accounts. A budget transfer will be needed.
212-4400-444.50-70 Stormwater Dues and Subscriptions $19,000
213-4500-445.50-70 Wastewater Dues and Subsciptions $19,000
Total $38,000
