Amended and Restated Agreement with USA Waste of California, Inc. (dba Waste Management of Orange County) September 6, 2016 Page 2 scheduled Consumer Price Index adjustments already in place. The Proposed Agreement, however, is a consolidation of all of the previous amendments and agreements and identifies a single franchise fee to replace a number of miscellaneous charges and transfers to the City (i.e., Program Surcharge, Administrative, NPDES, and other fees added to the cost of services). All of the fees from residential, commercial, and industrial services will be consolidated and set forth as a single Franchise Fee of 26.15 percent (Exhibit 2). The possibility of amending and restating the current agreement was discussed with Waste Management of Orange County and they agreed. With this opportunity for both sides to review the agreement, they requested that the City explore the pros and cons of a possible extension of the current solid waste agreement. Approval of this request will allow staff to bring the results to the City Council for future discussion and direction. The Proposed Agreement will also provide an opportunity to prepare for the Sustainable Mobility and Roadway Transformation (SMaRT) Program. If Council takes action to approve this legacy roadway repair and rehabilitation program, SMaRT Program pass- through fees would not be considered part of the Refuse Enterprise Franchise Fee. STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT Approval of this item supports the City's efforts to meet Goal #4 — City Financial Stability, Objective #1 (maintain a stable, efficient and transparent financial environment).
