How to comprehend the"as well as"?

Hi, teacher, below is a paragraph in the article, it's url is http://www.ci.glendale.az.us/PublicWorks/landfill/

"The city of Glendale’s Sanitation Division provides a variety of residential and commercial services. Garbage and http://www.ci.glendale.az.us/sanitation/recycling/index.cfm is collected weekly and http://www.ci.glendale.az.us/sanitation/bulktrash.cfm is collected monthly. In addition, the city operates the http://www.ci.glendale.az.us/sanitation/recycling/materialsrecoveryfacility.cfm where recyclable materials are sorted and prepared for sale, as well as the municipal http://www.ci.glendale.az.us/PublicWorks/landfill/index.cfm."

Now I can't comprehend the last two sentences , I know what they probably mean and just don't know the meaning of " as well as the municipal " here. Is it the same meaning with "like" ?

"as well as the municipal = just like the municipal landfill, right?

Thank you for help(or helping?) my question in advance, you can point my grammar out in my question if it exit.(how to say the red sentence in other words?)

... the city operates the MRF AND operates the municipal landfill.
... the city operates the MRF as well as the municipal landfill.
