The County operates on a portion of the money being paid by Colton through the County Refuse Disposal Site Tipping fees. The County also recovers costs through scrap metal sales and liens on property and vehicle owners. E The city would realize a savings in man hours amounting to an es- timated 50 man hours per month.
