The typical bill of a curbside cart customer will be increased by $1.90 per month, <br />effective July 1, 2020, and increased by an additional $1.50 per month effective July 1, 2021. <br />These rate increases are based on actual cost of service. When compared to neighboring cities, <br />the typical Santa Ana customer will continue to pay a similar amount, on average, for curbside cart <br />service as compared to its neighboring cities such as Garden Grove, Brea, Fullerton and Yorba <br />Linda. <br />Staff recommends approval of the Draft Solid Waste Services Request for Proposals to maintain <br />the Solid Waste Services Implementation Timeline (Exhibit 2), approval of the one-year extension <br />of the Solid Waste Services agreement with WM that includes alternate programming for green <br />waste diversion to maintain compliance with State legislation (Exhibit 3), and approval to prepare <br />all required documents necessary to proceed with notification of proposed refuse rate adjustments, <br />in compliance with Proposition 218 requirements. <br />STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT <br />Approval of these items support the City's efforts to meet Goal #4 - City Financial Stability, <br />Objective #1 (maintain a stable, efficient and transparent financial environment). <br />ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT <br />There is no environmental impact associated with this action. However, increased recycling activity <br />will divert materials from the landfill, thus extending the life of the landfill system and recovering <br />valuable recyclable resources. <br />FISCAL IMPACT <br />To cover costs incurred for preparing and mailing the Proposition 218 notices, $20,000 has been <br />budgeted and is available for expenditure in Fiscal Year 2019-20 in the Refuse Enterprise as <br />follows: <br />FISCAL <br />ACCOUNTING <br />ACCOUNTING UNIT, <br />YEAR <br />UNIT -ACCOUNT <br />FUND DESCRIPTION <br />ACCOUNT DESCRIPTION <br />AMOUNT <br /># <br />Refuse Collection Service, <br />06917640- <br />Refuse Collection <br />FY 2019-20 <br />Miscellaneous Operating <br />$20,000 <br />63001 <br />Service <br />Expenses <br />TOTAL: <br />$20,000 <br />60A-4 <br />
