BACKGROUND INFORMATION: CalRecycle has adopted regulations consistent with the mandates associated with Senate Bill 1383. The mandates are designed to achieve the organic waste reduction goals established in Section 39730.6 of the Health and Safety Code through a 50 percent reduction in the level of statewide disposal of organic waste from the 2014 level by 2020; and a 75 percent reduction in the level of statewide disposal of organic waste from the 2014 level by 2025. The City is required to comply with these regulations to assist the State in achieving the organic waste reduction levels outlined above. The main requirements resulting from the regulations include the adoption of an enforcement ordinance, implementation of mandatory residential and commercial food waste collection, and education and outreach. Jurisdictions are required to implement SB 1383 by January 1, 2022. At the February 16, 2022 meeting Council adopted the Notice of Intent to Comply (NOIC). By filing the NOIC, CalRecycle is authorized to waive civil penalties until January 1, 2023 if a jurisdiction intends to comply with the SB1383 requirements. A Public Hearing to consider SB1383 solid waste rates was held on March 15, 2023. The WM proposal presented by Staff included eliminating smaller cart sizes (20- and 35-gallon) and standardizing the 64- and 96- gallon cart sizes to reduce overages and recycling contamination; and to minimize the rate increase needed to comply with SB1383 requirements. After hearing numerous public comments requesting to keep the smaller cart sizes, Council continued the Public Hearing to the April 5, 2023 meeting. At the April 5, 2023 Council Meeting, WM proposed to accommodate up to 1,000 customers requesting the smaller (35 gallon) cart sizes. Council ultimately did not adopt the proposal and directed Staff to bring back a proposal that includes an option for the smaller cart size for all residents. Since, Staff has been working with Waste Management to formulate a revised proposal that will incorporate the additional services needed to comply with SB 1383 including a smaller cart size option for all residents. Based on Council feedback received from the June 13th Shirtsleeve meeting, Staff will schedule mailing the Proposition 218 Notices on or before June 26, 2023 Waste Management will be presenting information on the proposed revised changes to the current solid waste contract with the City as well as the new rates proposed to cover the cost to implement all the requirements of SB 1383. FISCAL IMPACT: Not applicable. FUNDING AVAILABLE: Not applicable. ________________________________________ Charles E.
