2026 Annual Budget

Fund: Refuse Fund

Description of Services: The city originally purchased and provided refuse and recycling carts to Shakopee residents.

The new hauler purchased all remaining carts from the city and cart ownership is the responsibility of the hauler. Accomplishments:  The City receives a monthly payment of $7,500 for the first 60 months of the contract, which began January 31, 2022.  The payments were used to pay down the interfund loan with the Sewer fund that was used for the original refuse and recycling cart purchase.  The interfund loan was paid off in 2025.
