1. Approval of Resolution 2026-27: Approving CPI Adjustment to Solid Waste and Recycling Rates

City Commission Regular Meeting · 2026-06-15 · agenda_item

The City of DeLand is considering a resolution to adjust solid waste and recycling rates. This adjustment is based on a contract with GFL and uses the U.S. city average Consumer Price Index (CPI) for all urban consumers. The proposed rate change is 4.16%, which is below the 6% maximum that would trigger a reversion to a 3% increase. This item is currently under review by the City Commission and is planned to take effect October 1, 2026. This process involves reviewing contract terms and approving rate adjustments. Local contractors, suppliers, and service providers in waste management and related fields may find opportunities as these rates impact ongoing service contracts. Early engagement with city officials or the contracted service provider could offer insights into future needs.
