Senate Bill 1073 — Solid waste collection (+1)

Senate Bill 1073 — Solid waste collection (+1)

by
Parrish Miller
February 24, 2025

Bill Description: Senate Bill 1073 would clarify that a city's waste collection contract does not prevent a private contract for temporary waste collection by another service provider. 

Rating: +1

Does it give government any new, additional, or expanded power to prohibit, restrict, or regulate activities in the free market? Conversely, does it eliminate or reduce government intervention in the market?

Senate Bill 1073 would amend Section 50-344, Idaho Code, to clarify that "notwithstanding any city contract or franchise for solid waste collection to the contrary, any person may contract with a solid waste collection provider of the person's choosing for the use of temporary, project-specific solid waste collection containers."

This means an individual or business would not be bound by the terms of a city's waste collection contract when doing a project within the borders of a city.
