The City Council will also reconsider a request from Recycle North Dakota to waive the revenue share provision in the contract for the 2022 fiscal year at its meeting Tuesday, July 5.
The Jamestown Public Works Committee in a 3-1 vote recommended approval of a request from Recycle North Dakota to waive the revenue share provision in the contract for the 2022 fiscal year at its meeting Thursday, June 23. Steele was opposed, and Heinrich was not present at the meeting.
Steele said the City Council should reconsider the request since the contract was for five years. He said Ralph Friebel, owner of Recycle North Dakota, did not provide any reasons that leaving the revenue share provision in the contract is causing any financial difficulties for the recycling company.
The contract between Recycle North Dakota and the city of Jamestown states that the city receives 40% of any amount over the weighted average of $50 per ton, Friebel said at the Public Works meeting. The city of Jamestown has been paid about $19,000 over four years.
