AGENDA TITLE: Set Public Hearing for March 15, 2023 to Consider Adopting Resolution Setting Future
Solid Waste Rates Pursuant to Proposition 218 for Residential Customers
MEETING DATE: February 15, 2023
PREPARED BY: Public Works Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Set public hearing for March 15, 2023 to consider adopting resolution
setting future solid waste rates pursuant to Proposition 218 for residential
customers.
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. This is an unfunded State mandate.
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. On March 2, 2022, Council introduced an ordinance amending the Lodi Municipal Code Title 13
"Public Health Services," which allows the City to enforce SB1383 requirements on business and residents
beginning January 1, 2024.
Staff is currently working with Waste Management to provide substantial outreach to our customers regarding
organics recycling requirements with residential organics recycling service to commence by April 1, 2023.
Staff is also working with Waste Management on a proposed contract extension that will incorporate the new
SB 1383 requirements. Proposed rate schedules and information were supplied to the City Council at the
January 17, 2023 Shirtsleeve meeting prior to mailing Proposition 218 protest hearing notices (English and
Spanish translations) and preliminary to a public hearing to consider adopting the proposed rate schedules for
the period from April 1, 2023 through March 31, 2028. The rate schedules set maximum limits on the solid
waste rates for the next five years, and each year the City Council will be requested to approve the actual rates
to be implemented. At the public hearing on March 15, 2023, the City Council will be asked to receive public
comment; adopt resolutions setting future adjustments to solid waste rates with limits for the period April 1,
2023 through March 31, 2028.
FISCAL IMPACT: Rate adjustments are needed in order fund the State mandates of Senate Bill 1383
FUNDING AVAILABLE: Not applicable
