Agenda Item Summary:
This resolution sets the public hearing for September 2, 2025 for the Council to consider a lease agreement with Colorado Energy Recyclers, LLC (“CER”). Last year, the City entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with CER to explore an alternate fuel landfill diversion program for use at GCC’s cement plant(s) in Rapid City. The proposed Amendment No. 1 to the MOU commits the City to working with CER to request zoning approval for CER’s use of property at the solid waste facility for the diversion program. The MOU also provides that if that zoning approval is received, the City commits to lease space within its co-compost secondary building for CER to receive and process landfill material (tires) for use at GCC. The parties now wish to authorize the City to enter into a lease for a portion of a structure at the Solid Waste Facility where CER can conduct these activities. The agenda for the September 2, 2025 Council meeting will include three items: The public hearing as set by this Resolution 2025-104; PW081225-15 a Resolution to Enter Into a Lease Agreement with Colorado Energy Recyclers, LLC; and PW081225-14 Amendment No. 1 to Memorandum of Understanding for Alternate Fuel Landfill Diversion Program Evaluation Project Number 2803 / CIP 51424, which incorporates the Lease Agreement as an exhibit to be executed if and when the conditions in the Amendment No. 1 are met. This Resolution replaces Resolution 2025-087 (approved August 4, 2025) in order to ensure proper notice and publication of the public hearing.
