REPORTS AND ANNOUNCEMENTS 10. General Manager— Reports a. Receive presentation on future planning for Household Hazardous Waste (HHW) Program. Reviewed by Real Estate, Environmental & Planning (REEP) Committee. Household Hazardous Waste Supervisor David Wyatt reviewed the presentation included with the agenda material and responded to questions from Board Members. Member Pilecki said the REEP Committee suggested this presentation be given to the full Board to provide staff with input as to whether the Board wished staff to spend time looking into the homebound collection alternative. Member McGill said he would be in favor of finding out what would be involved in such an alternative. If there were a way to make a homebound collection alternative happen relatively easily, then in his view such a service would make sense. President Nejedly and Member Williams agreed that it is a noble idea but would be cost prohibitive. Member Causey stated that, as Chair of the REEP Committee, he would be in favor of capping staff time at no more than 10 hours to research the homebound collection alternative before any decisions are made. BOARD ACTION: It was the consensus of a majority of the Board to direct staff to investigate the potential for a homebound collection alternative. b. Receive quarterly informational list of pending Board and Standing Committee parking lot items General Manager Roger S. Bailey explained this informational item, which is anticipated to be presented to the Board on a quarterly basis going forward, provides a rough idea of when various items will be brought forward. Based on availability of Board Members and criticality of issues, the timing of any particular issue may change. BOARD ACTION: Received the information.
