WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS, Chapter 163, Florida Statutes, Intergovernmental Programs, Part I, Miscellaneous
Programs, Section 163.01, The Florida Interlocal Cooperation Act of 1969, subsection
163,01 (4), provides that public agencies of the State of Florida may exercise jointly with any
other public agency of the State of Florida any power, privilege, or authority which such
agencies share in common, and which each might exercise separately; and
WHEREAS, Chapter 163, Florida Statutes, Intergovernmental Programs, Part I,
Miscellaneous Programs, Section 163,01, The Florida Interlocal Cooperation Act of 1969,
Subsection 163,01 (5), provides that a joint exercise of power by such public agencies may be

Cooperation Act of 1969; and
WHEREAS, the State of Florida adopted the 1988 Solid Waste Management Act, codified in
Chapter 403, Florida Statutes, Part IV, Resource Recovery Management, which requires local
governments to reduce their solid waste streams by recycling; and
WHEREAS, the Act requires the County to implement the recycling program and insure, to
the maximum extent possible, that the various cities fully participate in the design and
implementation of the recycling program; and
WHEREAS, Lake County, in cooperation with the Cities within Lake County, has created a
Solid Waste Recycling Subcommittee composed of members from each of the Cities, the County,
waste haulers, recyclers, and the public, which Subcommittee has met regularly to investigate
1

the local solid waste and recycling system in relation to the requirements of the Act and has
determined that a joint and cooperative effort is a viable approach to the reduction of the solid
waste stream; and
WHEREAS, to maximize grant funds available to Lake County, the County and City hereby
agree to jointly prepare and implement a coordinated recycling and public education program.
NOW, THEREFORE, IN CONSIDERATION of the mutual benefits to flow to each other, the
County and the City agree as follows:
Section 1. Term. The term of this Interlocal Agreement shall commence on October 1,
1991 and shall remain in effect until such time as all funds are expended from the 1991 -

requirements as specified in Section 3, unless otherwise terminated as provided for in Section
5, The Parties acknowledge and understand that this Agreement is contingent upon and subject to
receipt of grant funds from the Florida Department of Environmental Regulation, hereinafter

applicable to the grant application, Cities representing at least seventy-five percent
(75%) of the incorporated population of Lake County must execute an Interlocal
Agreement in substantially the same form as this Interlocal Agreement. Should the

Cities executing such Interlocal Agreements not represent at least seventy-five

status, to the Lake County Environmental Services Department not later than the

fifteenth day of January, April, July and October for each year, or until such time as
FDER may require.
3 ) The City shall maintain records of its projects for at least three (3) years after grant

Section 4. Apportionment. It is estimated that approximately $280,000 will be

execute this Interlocal Agreement. Of this amount, the Parties have in principle, agreed that
each municipality that conducts its own recycling program shall receive its proportional share
of the total grant allocation minus the County's Base grant allocation. The proportional share
shall be based upon the ratio of each municipality's population to the total County Population.
The City shall, within thirty (30) days of execution of this Interlocal Agreement, inform the
County if it intends to implement its own recycling program and shall provide, with such
indication of intent, a time schedule for program implementation. Grant funds not apportioned
to the municipalities shall be apportioned to the County to implement the activities specified in

the grant application package on behalf of all the Parties. Should a lesser or greater grant
amount be awarded by the State, the apportionments will be adjusted accordingly.

provisions of this Interlocal Agreement shall place that Party in default. Prior to terminating
the Interlocal Agreement with respect to the defaulting Party, a non-defaulting Party shall
notify the defaulting Party and all other Parties in writing. Notification shall make specific
reference to the violation of this Interlocal Agreement that gave rise to the default and shall '
specify a reasonable period of time for the defaulting Party to cure the default. In the event said
default is not cured within the time provided, this Interlocal Agreement may be terminated,
with respect to the defaulting Party, The failure of any party to exercise this right shall not be
considered a waiver of such right in the event of any further default or non-compliance, In the
event of termination, the defaulting Party shall return any unexpended funds to the County,
unless County is the defaulting Party, and shall comply with any lawful requirements which the
FDER may impose,
Section 6. Modification, This Interlocal Agreement may be amended at any time by
mutual written consent of the Parties. No modification, amendment, or alteration of the terms
or conditions contained herein shall be effective unless contained in a written document executed
by the Parties hereto, with the same formality, and of equal dignity herewith.
Section 7. This Agreement embodies the entire agreement between the Parties. It may
not be modified or terminated except as provided herein. If any provision herein is invalid, it
shall be considered deleted therefrom, and shall not invalidate the remaining provisions.
