SUMMARY & BACKGROUND:
This Ordinance authorizes the expenditure of funds from the Division of Solid Waste’s Trust Fund for necessary development and upgrades to infrastructure at the Hoffman Road Landfill (landfill).

Through the ordinary course of these activities, various landfill infrastructure components, including portions of the leachate and gas collection system, access and stormwater conveyance system, have deteriorated over time and are in need improvements. Supplementary funding is required to further develop and repair these items to ensure continued regulatory compliance, mitigate future compliance risks and maintain operational effectiveness.
