TRANSPORTATION ORDINANCE, #264(90)
Resolution No. .t (5 )
St. Croix County, Wisconsin
WHEREAS, on November 13, 1990 the County adopted the Solid Waste Collection
and Transportation Ordinance which provides that all solid waste haulers operating in the
County must be licensed and all waste must be delivered to the American Resource
Recovery (ARR) waste -to- energy facility in New Richmond, St. Croix County, Wisconsin;
and
WHEREAS, ARR has defaulted on the agreement with the County to provide waste
incineration by shutting down the facility, among other defaults; and
WHEREAS, ARR has created a potential liability situation for the County if the
County keeps in effect an ordinance which requires the haulers to do something that is
impossible to do, i.e., deliver waste to a shut down facility; and
WHEREAS, because of ARR's defaults, the haulers have been forced to enter into
agreements with other entities for the disposal of waste, and do not know whether they will
be found in violation of the ordinance by the County; and - .
WHEREAS, because of ARR's defaults, the County can no longer direct waste to
the facility;
THEREFORE, be it resolved by the St. Croix County Board of Supervisors that the
Solid Waste Collection and Transportation Ordinance, no. 264(90), be and is hereby
repealed, effective immediately.
