Title
Bylaw 2024-17 Amending Bylaw 2020-08 Wastewater Services
Proposed Motion
That Bylaw 2024-17 receive third and final reading.
Body
Administration Recommendation
Administration supports Bylaw 2024-17 amending Wastewater Services Bylaw 2020-08.
Purpose
Amending Bylaw 2024-17 is a bylaw to require that all county approved wastewater haulers have GPS installed in their vehicles if they wish to dispose of wastewater at County facilities. The GPS system will replace the requirement for paper manifests from haulers. Administration expects that with GPS installed, current wastewater overstrength charges from ARROW Utilities can be reduced and the fees charged to residential users can, in turn, be reduced.
Summary
On June 25th, 2024, both first and second readings were given to Amending Bylaw 2024-17. The Bylaw did not receive unanimous support for third reading at that meeting, therefore this proposed Bylaw is being presented for third and final reading.
