CITY OF FIRCREST

NOTICE OF SOLID WASTE RATE ADJUSTMENT

This Notice of Rate Adjustment notifies Fircrest Solid Waste Utility customers that their solid waste rates may increase based on a 4.6 percent Consumer Price Index adjustment. Rate increases for residential and commercial solid waste customers are necessary to fund inflation, increased labor costs, and capital investment in infrastructure. Specific rate increases for individual customer categories vary and are available upon request. If adopted, the rate increase will become effective no sooner than March 1, 2024. A public hearing, to receive comments on the proposed rate increase, was held on January 23, 2024. The ordinance adopting the proposed rate increase is scheduled for February 13, 2024, a regularly scheduled meeting of the Fircrest City Council, which begins at 7:00 P.M. at 115 Ramsdell Street, Fircrest, WA 98466. Persons may comment on the proposed solid waste rate increase at the Fircrest City Council at the meeting scheduled for February 13, 2024.
