6.4.3 Rate Adjustment Steps for Curbside Services and Bin Services <br />Curbside Services rates and Bin Services rates (excluding roll -off) will be adjusted using <br />the same method, but will be calculated separately due to the differences in the <br />weightings of the service and disposal components for each Customer type, as listed in <br />Section 6.4.2. <br />Step One - Calculate the percentage increase or decrease in Service, Fuel, and Disposal <br />component indices listed in Section 6.4.2. The increase or decrease in the Service and <br />Fuel component indices will be for the change in the average annual published indices <br />for the twelve (12) month period ending December prior to the July 1 when the rate <br />change will take effect. <br />The Disposal component will be based on the actual percentage change in the waste <br />disposal agreement per ton gate rate at the Orange County Landfill System as of July 1 <br />of each Rate Period. <br />Step Two - The first rate adjustment cost components as a percentage of total costs are <br />provided in Section 6.4.2 above, with subsequent components calculated in Step Four of <br />the rate adjustment. For Step Two of each subsequent rate adjustment, use the cost <br />components recalculated in Step Four during the previous rate adjustment. <br />Multiply the percentage changes for each rate adjustment component by that <br />component's weighting and add these resulting percentages together to get the total <br />weighted change to the rates. <br />Step Three - Multiply the total weighted percent change from Step Two by the existing <br />maximum Curbside Services rates and Bin Services rates to determine the increase or <br />decrease in maximum rates. Then add (subtract) the changes in rates to (from) the <br />existing maximum rates to determine the new maximum rates. <br />Ste Four - Recalculate weightings for the following year based on these changes. <br />6.4.4 Rate Adjustment for Permanent Roll -Off Box <br />This Section shall apply exclusively to the adjustment of Roll -off Box rates that are <br />billed as "pull plus dump" and consist of a pull rate, or service component, plus a <br />tonnage cost. See Exhibit 2 for example rate adjustment procedures. <br />August 17, 2021 115 City of Santa Ana <br />
