BACKGROUND INFORMATION: At its work study ("Shirtsleeve") session of February 5, 1991, the City Council heard a presentation regarding the City's efforts to comply with the requirements of Assembly Bill 939 which addresses solid waste management and recycling. At that session Council also heard a staff recommendation to consider bringing all industrial customers under the terms and conditions of the Refuse Franchise Agreement. This step is necessary to insure that the City has 100% control of the waste stream to enable the City to meet the 25% reduction in material taken to the Harney Lane Sanitary Landfill by 1995, and 50% by the year 2000. A copy of Ordinance No. 1508 implementing this change is attached (Exhibit A). Depending on the City Council's decision, an appropriate industrial rate schedule will be presented for adoption. The staff will be prepared to answer questions. FUNDING: None required Respectfully submitted, Thomas A. Peterson City Manager TAP:br Attachment CCCO X13 APPROVED: THOMAS A.
