The Long Term Financial Policy Subcommittee recommended 2-1 to place a UUT modernization ordinance on the ballot in 2014. On March 11, 2014, the Council directed the City Attorney to prepare a ballot measure for modernization of the UUT for the November 2014 ballot.

Attachments Staff Report Attachment A Attachment B Responses to Council Questions Resolution Exhibit A Presentation PDF (uploaded 7/28/2014) 12.2 REPORT - APPROVAL OF 1) CENTRAL LANDFILL AND FORMER LANDFILLS SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT WITH COUNTY OF SONOMA 2) WASTE DELIVERY AGREEMENT WITH REPUBLIC SERVICES OF SONOMA COUNTY INC. AND 3) COMMITTED CITIES CONTINGENT LIABILITY FUND AGREEMENT BACKGROUND: The City has been negotiating with the County and other cities in the County for almost ten years to seek a long term solution to the County’s operation of a waste disposal system within the County and potential liabilities associated with the landfill system. Initially, the County proposed to divest itself of the landfill site and reach a settlement with the cities. In 2009, the County Board of Supervisors did not approve the proposal after objections were made to the landfill not remaining under public ownership. The County formed the Solid Waste Advisory Group (SWAG) with representatives from each city, including City of Santa Rosa Regular Meeting Agenda and Summary Report Page 9 of 19 CITY COUNCIL JULY 29, 2014 Santa Rosa, and the County to identify key goals and a long term solid waste strategy. The SWAG met for approximately two years and recommended that the best long term solution was public ownership and private operation of the landfill. The County negotiated a Master Operations Agreement with Republic Services of Sonoma County to operate the landfill which was approved in April 2013. The agreement becomes effective upon approval by the cities of a Waste Delivery Agreement with Republic to commit their waste stream to be disposed at the Sonoma County Central Disposal site and a Settlement Agreement with the County. In order to provide security for the cities against possible contingent liability in the future for the landfill system, the cities determined that a $5.00 per ton fee should be charged as part of the gate fee and be administered under the terms of a Committed Cities Contingent Fee Agreement. As a result of the ongoing negotiations, these three proposed agreements are now presented for the Council’s approval. RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended by the City Attorney and City Manager that the Council, by resolution, approve and authorize the City Manager to execute the Central Disposal Site and Former Landfills Settlement Agreement with the County of Sonoma; the Waste Delivery Agreement with Republic Services of Sonoma County, Inc. and the Committed Cities Contingent Liability Fund Agreement with the other cities in Sonoma County.
