# Weber County Commission Work Session 10 26 26

The Weber County Commission work session on October 26, 2026, addressed landfill rates and a five-year extension, the Weber Fire District’s paramedic-license renewal process, and Powder Mountain development and access matters. For the C&D landfill, staff recommended keeping the county’s share at $4 per ton rather than switching to a 15% share, reflecting that different waste categories have different rates. The proposed changes include an $18-per-ton rate for Waste Management and contaminated waste, a $28 regular tipping fee, a $50 fee for specialty items, and removal of the dead-animal fee, alongside a five-year contract extension. Commissioners supported the recommendation; staff said a fee ordinance and contract addendum would be brought forward, with the ordinance requiring two readings and a 15-day wait before taking effect. They also asked staff to revisit the county’s share if landfill tipping fees increase.

The commission discussed a cooperative RFP process for Weber Fire District EMS services, as required for license renewal under Senate Bill 215. All city mayors had signed on to the process; commissioners supported providing a county letter and scheduling a public presentation on cost, quality, and access. No provider was selected at this meeting. For Powder Mountain, participants discussed a development-agreement amendment and proposed higher application fees to reflect county review work, with terms to be finalized promptly; no amounts were stated. The commission favored limiting a requested easement to avalanche-control purposes for now, while broader ski-area uses would require further discussion. A possible contract for road maintenance, potentially coordinated with a future road vacation, was also discussed but not approved.
