Title 12 PUBLIC SERVICES
Chapter 12.08 SOLID WASTE DIVISION
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 five hundred-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
fifteen (15) days shall be provided for any fee increase. The disposal fee for
waste automotive and truck tires shall be one hundred eight dollars ($108.00)
per ton. (Ord. 05-O-05 §§ 1, 2, 2005; Ord. 02-O-26 § 5,
2003)
