He also ~felt it was <br />discriminatory for Council to impose the fee for the disposal of <br />waste that he considers to he community-wide waste, not just waste <br /> dealer <br />generated by the tire dealers. Mr. Buck asked why the tire/could <br />not pass the cost on to the consumer where it properly belongs. <br /> Mr. Nelson replied that he expected the consumer to believe that <br /> there are already too many charges tacked on to the price of tires <br /> and to keep the tires to dispose of elsewhere, probably illegally. <br /> Mr. Nelson also suggested that the times be saved at the landfill <br /> <br /> <br />
