This item authorizes the negotiation and execution of an interlocal agreement with Travis County for a five-year term for drop-off recycling and disposal services for County residents who live outside of the incorporated limits of the City.
The Austin Recycle & Reuse Drop-off Center (the “Center”) is located at 2514 Business Center Drive, Austin, Texas. The Center provides a way for residents to responsibly dispose of hard-to-recycle items, hazardous waste, and appliances.
Under the terms of this agreement, the City will provide recycling and disposal services to all Travis County households that bring collected material to the Center. The City will also provide services to County staff who bring found materials to the Center. The agreement does not include door-to-door collection services.
The County will pay the City for services upon receipt of a City-issued invoice. The amount due to the City will be based on the County’s utilization rate of the Center.
