Full Resolution Text

Whereas Waste Collection By-law 23-106 establishes service limits with respect to garbage (Section 13) and organics (Section 15); Whereas Council has requested a report on cost and service level implications related to garbage pick up at various multi-residential and condominium properties were Council to establish service level limits that would exceed the service limits as established by Waste Collection By-law 23-106; and, Whereas Council considers it appropriate to temporarily authorize service levels that exceed those established by the by-law pending consideration of the report. Now therefore be it resolved, That notwithstanding Waste Collection By-law 23-106, Council authorizes unseparated garbage and organics waste collection services to the multi- residential/condominium properties identified in a list provided by the Municipal Operations Department to the City Clerk until Council’s determination in response to the pending staff report; That staff be authorized to access up to $500,000 from the Waste Management Reserve to cover any expenses required; and, That the Commissioner, Municipal Operations be authorized to execute any documents and agreements to give effect to the forgoing, on terms acceptable to the said Commissioner in forms acceptable to the City Solicitor.
