Purpose

Authorizing the Director to submit for grants for the Clean Sweep program adminstered through DATCP and sign for such grants if approved.

Background

Background: The Conservation, Planning, and Zoning Department hosts two (2) Clean Sweep Events as well as several Ag Plastic events throughout the year in an effort to assist residents with the proper disposal of hazardous wastes.  Sauk County has supported the Clean Sweep Program and hazardous waste collection programs for over 20 years. The proper disposal of hazardous wastes is important for the safety and well-being of County residents.  This free service to County residents helps to protect the natural resources of Sauk County with a program that would otherwise be costly to individual households.  The grant through DATCP assists in defraying some of the costs associated with the programs. 

Budget Status (Other/External Sources): 

Fiscal Note:  The proposed 2018 Budget shows grant amounts to offset costs.  Not applying for or receiving the grant could raise the levy impact of the Conservation, Planning, and Zoning Department by $14,000.

Resolution Body

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the Sauk County Board of Supervisors,

met in regular session, that Sauk County continues to support the Clean Sweep hazardous waste collection events held in Sauk County; and,

 

 

            BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Director of Conservation, Planning, and Zoning is hereby authorized to submit the Clean Sweep Grant application.

 

For consideration by the Sauk County Board of Supervisors on October 17, 2017.

 

Respectfully submitted,

 

SAUK COUNTY CONSERVATION, PLANNING, AND ZONING COMMITTEE
