The legislation maintains the current disposal rates for Albuquerque residents and businesses within city limits while establishing new higher rates for non-city users. The bill affects the Solid Waste Department’s disposal fee structure and Refuse Disposal Operating Fund revenue projections.\r\n\r\nAnalysis: This ordinance amends the disposal fee provisions within the Municipal Solid Waste Ordinance Appendix governing Collection and Disposal Rates. Specifically, the legislation modifies Convenience Center fees applicable to residential and commercial users located outside Albuquerque municipal boundaries.\r\n\r\nUnder the proposed legislation, disposal fees for businesses and individuals located within Albuquerque city limits would remain unchanged at $5.00 per load, plus applicable tax. Existing uncovered and/or unsecured load surcharges for city residents and businesses would also remain unchanged at an additional $5.54 per vehicle.\r\n\r\nThe ordinance establishes a new disposal rate of $12.00 per load, plus tax, for commercial and residential Convenience Center users residing or operating outside Albuquerque city limits. The bill also establishes a $12.00 uncovered and/or unsecured load surcharge for non-city users.\r\n\r\nAccording to the administration’s transmittal memorandum, the proposed rate increase is intended to establish higher Convenience Center fees for non-Albuquerque users while maintaining existing rates for Albuquerque residents and businesses. The accompanying Cover Analysis states the proposal is intended to align service costs for non-residents more closely with operational costs and protect resources funded by Albuquerque taxpayers.\r\n\r\nThe ordinance includes standard legislative provisions for severability, compilation into the Revised Ordinances of Albuquerque, and an effective date.\r\n\r\nFiscal Impact: The ordinance modifies an existing fee schedule within the Solid Waste Department’s operations.\r\n\r\nThe Fiscal Impact Analysis indicates no measurable fiscal impact over and above existing appropriations to the General Fund. However, the FIA notes that surcharge revenue generated by the increased fees is estimated at approximately $1.1 million annually in Fund 651. The FIA further states that the additional revenue would be held in reserve to be appropriated at a future date.\r\n\r\nKey Dates: The ordinance would take effect five days after publication by title and general summary.\r\n\r\nImplementation of the revised rates would be administered by the Solid Waste Department following the effective date, which would be five days after publication. Revenue generated from the revised rates would be deposited into the Refuse Disposal Operating Fund, 651.\r\n\r\nComments: Actions: The bill was amended at the June 1st, 2026 City Council meeting, including a title change as reflected in this write-up. The amendment adds a new subsection to the Collection Fees of Albuquerque City Code § 9-10-1-11 (J)(2) City Convenience Centers; to include a verification requirement, requiring individuals and businesses using the Convenience Center to show proof of residency within the City Limits. If users of the center fail to show proof, they will be required to pay the out-of-city limit rate, which will be $12 per load plus tax.","MatterEXText2":"Laura Rummler","MatterEXText3":null,"MatterEXText4":null,"MatterEXText5":null,"MatterEXText6":null,"MatterEXText7":null,"MatterEXText8":null,"MatterEXText9":null,"MatterEXText10":null,"MatterEXText11":null,"MatterEXDate1":null,"MatterEXDate2":null,"MatterEXDate3":null,"MatterEXDate4":null,"MatterEXDate5":null,"MatterEXDate6":null,"MatterEXDate7":null,"MatterEXDate8":null,"MatterEXDate9":null,"MatterEXDate10":null,"MatterAgiloftId":0,"MatterReference":"27","MatterRestrictViewViaWeb":false,"MatterReports":[]}
