How much is the franchise fee and how will the franchise fee be used?
Franchise waste haulers will pay a 10 percent franchise fee. A portion of the franchise fee will be used for administrative costs, with the majority being used to implement needed programs within the franchise communities, such as additional household hazardous waste and electronic/universal waste collection events, smart gardening workshops, recycling incentive programs, illegal dumping prevention and cleanup programs, and school recycling programs.
