WORK SESSION ITEM
City Council
SUBJECT FOR DISCUSSION
Regional Wasteshed Master Plan.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The purpose of this item is to consider supporting Larimer County’s Solid Waste Infrastructure Master Plan. The
Master Plan proposes new solid waste facilities and infrastructure (funded by Larimer County) and supportive
policies (adopted by municipalities). It is the result of a three-year regional collaboration to improve the local
waste and recycling system and provides strategic implementation opportunities for Fort Collins’ Zero Waste
goals.
GENERAL DIRECTION SOUGHT AND SPECIFIC QUESTIONS TO BE ANSWERED
1. Does Council wish for staff to prepare a resolution supporting the Solid Waste Infrastructure Master Plan?
(January 15 Regular Hearing)
2. Shall staff prepare an intergovernmental agreement for Council review in Q1 of 2019 formalizing
commitments in the master plan? (February 12 Work Session)
BACKGROUND / DISCUSSION
History of Council Involvement
Staff provided updates on this project to City Council at a
• Regular hearing in January 2017.
• Futures Committee in April 2017.
• Council Finance Committee in July 2018.
• Work sessions in January and May of 2018.
In addition, Fort Collins City Council is represented on the Policy Advisory Committee of the Wasteshed Coalition
by Mayor Troxell and Councilmember Cunniff.
Wasteshed Coalition Background
Because the Larimer County Landfill is forecast to reach capacity by 2024, staff and elected officials from the
Cities of Fort Collins and Loveland, Larimer County, and the Town of Estes Park formed the North Front Range
Wasteshed Coalition in 2015.
In 2017, Larimer County engaged the consulting firm HDR, Inc. to conduct extensive analysis of:
• current and future regional solid waste volumes
• emerging technologies for resource recovery
• recommended infrastructure components
o including triple-bottom line and market impacts
• policies to support new facilities
December 11, 2018 Page 2
Eleven possible solid waste infrastructure options were identified for analysis. Each element was closely reviewed
by the Coalition and is detailed in the Solid Waste Infrastructure Master Plan.
Master Plan Recommendations
Five new facilities are recommended based on cost-benefit ratio, timeframe to complete, and projected tipping
fees:
Proposed Facilities Capital Cost* (Initial
Phase)
Projected Tip Fee*
New County Landfill $11.7M $15
Central Transfer Station $15.8M $31
Yard Waste Composting Facility $11.8M $38
Food Waste Composting Facility $38
Construction and Demolition (C&D)
Debris Processing Facility
$13.7M $34
Recycling Center Upgrades $3M Varies
*Fees and costs in 2017 dollars
Locations
All of the proposed facilities except a new landfill would be co-located on County-owned property on West Trilby
Road adjacent to the existing landfill. A modern, sanitary landfill would be developed on a section of County-
owned land in northern Larimer County and would predominantly accept trash from the Central Transfer Station
(including landfill waste from Fort Collins). The Transfer Station would provide a high level of convenience and
safety to customers with a new entrance and separate lanes for commercial and self-haul visitors.
Capital Cost
Most of the capital investment needed for the recommended facilities would come from an existing fund balance
Larimer County has accumulated from past user fees for infrastructure replacement, with the remainder being
financed by the County. Because the Solid Waste Division is operated as an enterprise fund, no tax revenue is
included in these projections and there is no expectation of municipal financial investment.
Facility Construction Timeline
One of the primary goals of the Regional Wasteshed Project is to have replacement facilities operational before
the Larimer County landfill stops accepting waste in 2024. The projected development schedule for the new
facilities includes design, permitting, and construction.
Intergovernmental Agreement
While Larimer County has the funding to build new resource recovery facilities, municipal partnerships and
policies are needed to make these regional assets work. To formalize the commitments of participating
jurisdictions an intergovernmental agreement would be developed and likely include the following elements:
• County commits to finance, construct, own, and manage new facilities and maintain a hauler licensing
program
• Infrastructure outlined in Master Plan
• Municipalities commit to establish supportive policy for waste handling and participate in a County advisory
board
• Policy would help drive material to new facilities
• All jurisdictions coordinate data collection and education
Supportive Policy
December 11, 2018 Page 3
The Master Plan calls for new rules to be implemented in the Wasteshed. These policies would be in alignment
with adopted goals for increased diversion, are anticipated to drive economic development in the region, and are
designed to support the financial viability of new facilities:
(1) Flow Control for Construction and Demolition Debris (C&D)
a. All mixed loads of construction and demolition debris must be sent to a County-owned processing facility
for a period of ten years (projects over 1,000sf).
(2) Flow Control for Single-Stream Recyclables
a. Mixed curbside recycling must be sent to a County-owned recycling center.
(3) Yard Trimmings and Food Scraps Diversion
a. Municipalities would be expected to develop policies and programs appropriate for their community to
divert green waste from landfills.
(4) Trash Disposal
a. No new rules are proposed for municipal solid waste (trash) handling.
Outreach Conducted
• A Stakeholder Advisory Group met seven times between May 2017 and September 2018 to provide input and
review technical and policy information produced by coalition staff.
o Over 50 stakeholders were invited to participate from key sectors including: the business community,
academia, regional governments, waste haulers and recyclers, boards and commissions, state agencies,
and advocacy groups.
• Coalition staff met directly with local haulers throughout the project, both individually and as a group, to
discuss impacts on their operations. Hauler meetings were held in May, July, and December of 2018.
• Staff presented updates to the Local Legislative Affairs Committee of the Chamber of Commerce in January,
April, and November of 2018.
• Staff solicited targeted feedback regarding flow control for C&D from builders, developers, and construction
debris haulers during the summer of 2018.
• Four public meetings in an open house format were held in May of 2018 throughout the County and an online
town hall meeting is active at <http://nfrwasteshedpublicmeeting.com/>.
• Staff engaged with numerous boards and community groups, and provided feedback throughout the project.
• See Public Engagement Summary (Attachment 2) for further details.
Additional Relevant Analysis
A Triple-Bottom Line Scan of the proposed project outcomes was conducted in 2018. (Attachment 4)
An earlier Regional Wasteshed Planning Study was prepared in 2016 that established how the region handles
waste materials and explored opportunities and challenges that exist for the future
(www.fcgov.com/Ph1_wasteshed_report <http://www.fcgov.com/Ph1_wasteshed_report>).
A “waste characterization” study of material accepted for disposal at the Larimer County Landfill was conducted in
2016. A major finding was that organics (yard trimmings and food scraps), as well as construction and demolition
materials, offer a significant opportunity for waste diversion (<https://www.fcgov.com/recycling/publications-
resources.php>).
Bottom Line
Unprecedented regional collaboration for solid waste planning, spurred by the Larimer County Landfill nearing
capacity, has yielded a master plan for infrastructure that can divert significant waste from landfills without capital
investment from the City of Fort Collins. To support this project, the role of municipalities in the region is to adopt
specific policies that will deliver materials to the new County-owned resource recovery facilities
December 11, 2018 Page 4
The proposed facilities are projected to recover as much as 40% of what is currently landfilled in the Wasteshed,
delivering useable products back into the regional economy and helping Fort Collins meet its goals for Zero
Waste.
Next Steps
If directed by Council, a resolution of support will be developed for consideration at the January 2019 meeting as
well as an intergovernmental agreement formalizing commitments by the Wasteshed jurisdictions, for review at a
work session February 12, 2019.

NEW FACILITIES PROPOSED
NEAR EXISTING LANDFILL SITE
TRANSFER STATION
Convenient trash drop-off for both
residents and trash haulers in separate
traffic lines.
RECYCLING CENTER (UPGRADES)
Improvements to the existing facility
that handles mixed recycling.
CONSTRUCTION AND DEMOLITION
DEBRIS SORTING
A covered facility that sorts out mixed
loads of materials from building sites
(such as wood, metal, and concrete, etc.).
YARD WASTE COMPOSTING
Windrow composting system that turns
yard trimmings (leaves, branches, grass,
etc.) into a valuable soil amendment
(compost).
FOOD WASTE COMPOSTING
An enclosed composting system that
turns food scraps into a valuable soil
amendment (compost).
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
WOULD THE COUNTY USE MY TAX DOLLARS
TO BUILD THESE NEW FACILITIES?
No. The County would pay for the new facilities
with fees collected from past landfill users.
HOW WOULD THE PROPOSED CHANGES
AFFECT MY TRASH BILL?
Cost impacts to existing trash collection service
are expected to be very small. Future costs for
new services will vary for each community.
ARE NEW RULES NEEDED FOR WASTE HANDLING
AND DISPOSAL?
• Polices are needed to direct mixed construction
and demolition debris and mixed curbside
recyclables to the recycling centers to
kick-start markets for those materials and
encourage investment in these facilities.
• Communities would need to develop
programs and policies to encourage yard
trimmings and food scraps recycling.
• No new rules are proposed for how
or where trash is disposed.
WHAT CURRENT SERVICES WOULD REMAIN?
Larimer County would continue to host recycling
and household hazardous waste drop-off at the
new resource recovery center on West Trilby Road.
Convenient trash drop-off at the new state-of-the art
transfer station would be easily accessible to visitors.
REGIONAL WASTESHED PLANNING
The Larimer County Landfill s going to reach capacity and close by 2024. Regional governments are
proposing new resource recovery facilities and a convenient trash drop-off site to replace it.

Meetings with Private Haulers
Throughout the project County and City staff have
met with representatives of Waste Management,
Gallegos Sanitation, and Ram Waste, both
individually and as a group, to discuss impacts on
their operations. In 2018, Hauler meetings were
held in May, July, and December. Feedback
included:
• General support for new infrastructure to
increase disposal convenience and waste
diversion.
• Lack of support for rules regulating waste
handling and dislike for user fee increases.

throughout Larimer County seeking feedback on
elements of the proposed master plan.
• Four public meetings held in September 2016,
throughout Larimer County, with the assistance of
CSU’s Center for Public Deliberation.
Wasteshed Survey
From June 24 until July 31, 2016, residents from
across Larimer County were solicited to participate
in a professionally-conducted online survey posted
by City and County officials, promoted through
various media outlets. During this time, over 1200
responses were collected, 42% from Fort Collins. Of
Fort Collins respondents,
• 51% indicated that current disposal options
for food scraps are inadequate

2016 WASTE SORT SUMMARY
PROJECT TITLE: Regional Wasteshed Planning
BOTTOM LINE
In 2016 a statistically significant, two-season waste characterization study (waste sort) was conducted of
material accepted for disposal at the Larimer County Landfill. Waste was randomly sampled from in-bound
trucks hauling material from Fort Collins and sorted by category and weighed. The waste sort results can be
found at www.fcgov.com/recyclingreports. The data revealed that the majority of what Fort Collins homes and
businesses are putting in the trash could be recovered and that organic material (e.g., food scraps and yard
trimmings) and building materials, in particular, offer significant opportunities for additional waste diversion
WASTE BY SECTOR
Of the 155,000 tons of material sent to landfills from Fort Collins in 2016, 40% came from industrial sources
(including construction waste); 31% came from commercial and multi-family sources; 29% came from single-
family residential sources. (See chart below.)
WASTE BY TYPE
The 2016 waste sort provided data on the composition of the landfill waste-stream from each sector. The full
waste sort report (referenced above) includes many more material categories; for this summary, materials are
consolidated into the three categories: compostable, recyclable, and not currently recoverable. (See charts on
following page.)
“Recyclable” includes materials such as bottles, cans, paper, and cardboard; “compostable” includes materials
like food scraps, leaves, and branches; “not currently recoverable” includes a wide variety of materials such as
shingles, diapers, window blinds, tarps, etc.

Regional Wasteshed Planning
Key boundary conditions: A Larimer County master plan for solid waste infrastructure is being reviewed
by City Council. The master plan lays out commitments by the County to construct five new facilities for
solid waste disposal and recovery to serve the region. To support this project, the role of municipalities
in the region is to adopt specific policies that will deliver materials to the new County-owned resource
recovery facilities. All told, the polices, programs, and facilities that would be developed from the master
plan are projected to recover as much as 40% of what is currently landfilled in the Wasteshed. Some
user fee increases, and additional economic activity are expected as a result.
Positive
• High potential for community
greenhouse gas emissions
reduction from increased
composting opportunities.
• Opportunity for significant landfill
diversion from new facilities.
Negative
• Potential increased Truck traffic
Positive
• New/expanded business
opportunities
o Collection
o Use of recycled end
products
o Public-private partnerships
• New Infrastructure without direct
City expense
• Reinforces City’s positive brand
image of environmental
stewardship
Negative
• Limits opportunities for competing
construction waste sorting business
(for 10-years)
Positive
• Note: social impacts were recorded
with a low confidence, including
potential impacts on cost of living or
potential impacts on affordable and
attainable housing
Negative
• Note: social impacts were recorded
with a low confidence, including
potential impacts on cost of living or
potential impacts on affordable and
attainable housing
Tradeoffs
• While Larimer County has the funding to build new resource recovery facilities, municipal partnerships and policies are
needed to make these regional assets work. The tensions inherent in the needed policies and programs include
regulation of business operations and potentially changing user costs.
Mitigations
• Working through future policy development with stakeholders and conducting public engagement.
• Minimizing cost increases and addressing disproportionate impacts on low-income populations.
Key Alignment:
• Strategic Objective 4.5 – Achieve the 2020 Road to Zero Waste goals and work toward 2030 zero waste goals
• Strategic Objective 4.1 – Achieve Climate Action Plan (CAP) 2020 goals and continue progress toward the 2030 goals
• Strategic Objective 3.2 – Maintain and grow diverse employment opportunities
ATTACHMENT 4
Regional Wasteshed Planning
• Considering the triple-bottom line impacts of the various infrastructure options and scenarios was
central to the detailed analysis conducted during this planning process. The resulting benefit-cost
ratio included non-monetary social and environmental impacts which are detailed in the Wasteshed
master plan. During the development of an intergovernmental agreement and supportive policies in
2019, triple-bottom line impacts will be considered.
