The current and proposed rates are as follows:

Class I $ 54.50 per ton $ 60.50 per ton
Yard Waste $ 30.00 per ton $ 54.50 per ton
Construction & Demolition (C&D) $ 54.50 per ton $ 76.00 per ton
Personal Watercraft $ 54.50 per ton $ 60.50 per ton
Sludge $ 54.50 per ton $ 60.50 per ton
Automobile Tires $150.00 per ton $150.00 per ton
Semi-Truck Tires $150.00 per ton $150.00 per ton
Off-Road Tires $200.00 per ton $200.00 per ton
Double Wide Mobile Home Without Tires $600.00 each $790.00 each
