FY2024-FY2029 Adopted Capital Improvement Program

FY2024 Adopted Budget Capital Improvement Program

Solid Waste

The Solid Waste CIP is funded from a self-supporting fund, the Solid Waste Fund. In addition, the Solid Waste Department is able to issue Enterprise Bonds for large projects. Both revenue sources are the result of user fees and tipping fees paid by the public. Frederick County has only one publicly owned and operated solid waste disposal facility, which is located on Reich’s Ford Road. This facility was expanded in land area several years ago and the newest disposal area (Cell 2B) was opened for operation in November 2003.
