Why This Vote Matters

The council unanimously approved a spending plan for fees collected from the North Richmond waste facility during the first half of 2012-2013. These mitigation fees are designed to compensate the North Richmond community for hosting the waste facility and typically fund local improvements, environmental monitoring, or health programs in the area. All four members present voted in favor, with three members absent from the meeting. This administrative item outlines how previously collected funds will be distributed rather than authorizing new spending.
