SUBJECT: Annual,CPI Rate Adjustment for Solid Waste Colle~ion Services
, , This memorandum presents the solid waste collection rate, adjustment based upon the
Consumer Price Index (CPI) in, accordance with Section' 21 of our contract with the City
of Meridian. This rate adjustment coincides With the 'beginning of the next fiscal year,
October 1,. 2006.', ", , ,
Adjustment Methodology
Our contract 'requires that' our costs be adjUsted annually, based upon the "net
percentage of'change,in the Consumer Pric,e Index.for the Pacific Northwest." (The CPI
is no lorig~r published for the Pacific Northwest so we, have used the CPI for the
Western Region of the United States.) Further, we reduce'the c,alculated change'in the
CPI by ten percent to account for aspects of the CPI that do not ~pply' to our business.
Attached to this mernorimdum is the CPI printout from ,the U.S. Bur,eau of Labor
Statistics. The CPI for 'July' one yearago was 198.6 and th,is' year it is 206.7. The net
percentage change betWeen the two value!;; is 4.08%': Then, reducing this number by to
percent yields a CPI adj~stment of 3.67% that is applied to our 99sts.
Another requirement; Of our contract i~ that we ,exclude the landfill portion of our fees
from the adjustment.
