CITY OF SOUTH MIAMI
OFFICE OF THE CITY MANAGER
INTER-OFFICE MEMORANDUM
TO:The Honorable Mayor, Vice Mayor, and Members of the City Commission
FROM:Genaro “Chip” Iglesias,City Manager
DATE:September 3, 2024
SUBJECT:$87,000 Budget Transfer to Public Works Solid Waste Refuse Disposal Fee.
RECOMMENDATION:Approval of the budget transfer of $87,000 from the City Manager’s
contingency account, Solid Waste Worker’s Comp account, and Solid
Waste Supplies account to fund the increased cost of the Solid Waste
disposal fee.
BACKGROUND:On February 12, 2023, there was a fire at the City’s regularly used waste
disposal station, Covanta Waste-to-Energy plant,located in Doral.
The budgetary line items for Solid Waste Refuse Disposal will be exceeding
the budgeted amount for FY 2024. Since the fire at Miami-Dade County’s
incinerator plant, the City has been required to take the collected garbage
and trash to the Miami-Dade West Transfer station and pay a transfer fee
of $15.65 per ton, which has added to the City’s cost of garbage and trash
disposal. The City inadvertently underbudgeted the total solid waste
refuse disposal fee for FY24 which begins in March and finishes with the
adoption in September.
The City for the upcoming FY 25 has increased the Refuse Disposal Fee to
$935K, which is an increase of $115,000 from what was budgeted in FY 24
and an increase of $44,000 from where the City is expected to expend in
FY 24. This increase should help fully fund the Refuse Disposal of the City’s
Garbage and Trash for FY 25.
FUNDING:Requesting a transfer of $53,970 from the City Managers contingency
account, No.001.1310.513.9920 with a balance of $53,970 and $22,605
from the Solid Waste Worker’s Comp No. 001.1720.534.2410 with a
balance of $22,605 and $10,425 from the Solid Waste Supplies No.
001.1720.534.5210 with a balance of $20,524 to the Solid Waste Refuse
Disposal fee account No. 001.1720.534.4340 for a total transfer of $87,000.
