MISCELLANEOUS RESOLUTION 107058 March 22, 2007
BY: Planning & Building Committee, Sue Ann Douglas, Chairperson
IN RE: DEPARTMENT OF ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT & COMMUNITY AFFAIRS —
WASTE RESOURCE MANAGEMENT — EXTENSION OF NO HAZ PROGRAM THROUGH
2010
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS Oakland County, through its Waste Resource Management Unit, has
facilitated the North Oakland Household Hazardous Waste Consortium (NO HAZ) for the
past five years; and
WHEREAS the cost of facilitating this program is reimbursed to the County by the
member communities; and
WHEREAS Oakland County and the member communities are committed to
protection of public health, the natural environment and preventing toxic materials from
entering our waterways and landfill resources; and
WHEREAS collection events for household hazardous waste are widely accepted as
the best way to provide citizens with a safe way to dispose of these toxic and poisonous
household chemicals, and they also contribute to Phase II Stormwater Protection
requirements, encourage pollution prevention and enhance environmental health and safety
in the home; and
WHEREAS more than 6,000 residents have used the program, resulting in 300,000
pounds of household hazardous waste being collected and recycled or properly disposed of;
and
WHEREAS Oakland County originally agreed to facilitate this program for three years
(2003, 2004, 2005), and then agreed to facilitate it for an additional two years (2006, 2007),
and it was intended that the member communities would then take over facilitation of the
program and Oakland County would no longer be involved; and
WHEREAS since that time, economic stresses have continued to affect the
communities' ability to facilitate a program on their own; and
WHEREAS many of the member communities have passed resolutions asking the
County to continue as the facilitator of the program; and
WHEREAS the county administration strongly supports the continuation of the
program for an additional three years (2008, 2009, 2010); and
WHEREAS the Oakland County Waste Resource Management Unit believes the
program is very important and wants to see the program continue and grow.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of
Commissioners authorizes the Oakland County Waste Resource Management Unit to
continue facilitating the NO HAZ Program for an additional three years (2008, 2009, 2010) as
long as the member communities fully reimburse the County for all costs and expenses
connected with the operation of the program.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that during this three-year period Oakland County and
the member communities will take steps to increase the number of member communities and
to prepare the member communities to take over the operation and facilitation of the program
at the conclusion of this three-year period.
Chairperson, on behalf of the Planning & Building Committee, I move the adoption of
the foregoing resolution.
