 The Ione City Council held a special meeting Tuesday evening which included a public hearing, a workshop, and a few updates from staff regarding various projects currently underway in the City. The Public Hearing, which pertained to the approval of a rate increase for a solid waste permit from ACES, had previously been placed on an April agenda, but was subsequently rescheduled pending a decision on the Buena Vista landfill. ACES’s requested rate increase of 9.3% is to compensate for the rising costs of insurance and fuel. During the discussion, City Manager Kim Kerr reminded the council that it is written into the ACES’s permit ordinance that an increase can only be requested one time per calendar year. The resolution for the rate increase was then approved 4-1 with Councilman Sherman dissenting.
