§ 12.08.050. Landfill and transfer station fees.

A.

The Colleton County council establishes fees on an annual basis for the Colleton County solid waste division with the approval of the annual budget ordinance. Tipping fees for disposal of commercial waste and residential waste exceeding the 500-pound-per-month limit shall be calculated based on the county's cost in tipping fees, haulage, and yearly tonnage rates, as well as depreciation of the transfer station, so that the county is provided with a method of recouping its costs for the disposal of commercial waste deposited at the transfer station. Advance notice of a change in the annual fees shall be provided to commercial customers.

B.

Rates for disposal of truck and automotive tires shall be amended as required by county council by resolution or ordinance. Such fees shall be calculated based on the county's costs to dispose of this material. Advance notice of at least 15 days shall be provided for any fee increase. The disposal fee for waste automotive and truck tires shall be $108.00 per ton.
