PUBLIC HEARING Mayor Garthe announced - ?6 - y
REFUSE COLLECTION RATES that this was the time
RESOLUTION NO. 76-66 ADOPTED and place for the hear-
ing of increasing customer
rates for refuse collection, 1976-77 fiscal year. Responding
to the question of Councilman Brandt regarding a possible
conflict of interest that would prevent him from participating
in the discussion and voting, City Attorney Keith Gow determined
that there is no conflict of interest for Councilman Brandt in
this matter.
Assistant City Manager Ronald Wolford stated that the analysis
made of the refuse collection for single family residences indi-
cates that an increase of 10% will be required to keep the program
on a self-supporting basis ; that the present rate is $2 . 00 per
month; that it is recommended that this rate be increased to
$2. 20 per month; that without this rate adjustment there will
be a deficit of $89, 000 by June 30, 1977 ; that trash collection
formerly was funded out of property tax; that about nine years
ago it was removed from the property tax and put on a basis of
the user paying for services received; and that on page 3 of
Resolution No. 76-66 there is a correction to the $1 . 50 figure •
in the first column, it should be $1. 65.
The Clerk of the Council reported that there were no communica-
tions.
Michael McNulty, 1836 North Spurgeon, stated that he had checked
with Arthur Young and Company on the partial audit; thathe is
satisfied with the figures , but does not see why a complete audit
was not requested; that the extra funds to pay for the special
labor adjustment to the contractor ought to come from Council
Contingency or General Fund instead of increasing the collection
rate to .the customer; and that the agreement with the Contractor
should be reevaluated.
City Manager Bruce Spragg stated that a complete audit had been
asked for, but a partial audit had been agreed to when it was
also agreed that the figures could be verified by an independent
auditor; that the Council many years ago determined that ser-
vices such as water and trash collection should more fairly be
paid for by, the users of the services rather than by the taxpayer.
Councilman Brandt pointed out that the charges are easier to
keep track of and monitor when they are not buried in the General
Fund and that the one who uses more pays more , which seems most
equitable .
Councilman Bricken emphasized that $2 . 00 per month for trash
pickup is a very reasonable charge when you compare that cost
with the rental charge for a trailer and the inconvenience of
removing it yourself.
Joe Gilmaker, 308 West Fourth Street, stated that he knows there
will be a raise in the commercial rates also, and suggests that
the contract be rebid.
City Manager Bruce Spragg stated that the existing contract will
expire in 1978 , and at that time could be rebid if Council desires .
There being no further speakers , Mayor Garthe closed the public
hearing.
On the unanimously carried (5 : 0) motion of Councilman Ward,
seconded by Councilman Bricken, the following resolution was
adopted:

RECOMMENDED ACTION
It is recommended that the City Council authorize the following compen-
sation adjustments for Great Western Reclamation, Inc . for residential
trash collection effective April 1 , 1976 :
1 . An increase of $0 .15 per water meter per month.
2 . Cancellation of the pay-back clause which was established in
December 1973 when SCA acquired Great Western stock.
BACKGROUND
By letter dated November 25 , 1975 , the contractor requested a number
of changes in the contract, two of which specifically related to the
amount of compensation paid him by the City. They asked for a special
adjustment due to increased labor costs , as they had endured a strike
in the spring of 1975 with a subsequent increased wage settlement
with the union . The contractor requested the following increases per
water meter per month.
November 1 , 1975 - $0 . 15
November 1 , 1976 - $0 .10
November 1 , 1977 - $0 .10
The second compensation item contained in their letter was a request
to cancel the pay-back clause that was imposed at the time SCA acquired
the stock of Great Western.
ANALYSIS
The contractor had furnished us information regarding increased labor
costs during the period from December 1970 to 1975. The bare wage
rate increased about 82% , while during the same time period the con-
tract price (based on the Consumer Price Index) increased about 73% .
This indicated that an increase of $0 . 09 per water meter per month
was justified . This office wrote to the contractor on February 20,
1976 indicating that staff could support the repeal of the pay-back
feature which would offset their increased wage costs . Copies of
this letter were furnished to City Council at that time .
The contractor countered with the suggestion that their fringe benefits
had increased far greater than had their basic wage costs during the
five year period under study. We suggested to them that they furnish
the necessary supporting data with certification by an accounting
firm. They have submitted the additional data by letter dated March
17 , 1976 . This contains a report from Arthur Young & Company which
shows that wages and fringe benefits combined have increased 106%
from December 1970 to December 1975 . Based on these data, we feel
that an increase of $0 . 15 per water meter per month can be justified
in addition to the cancellation of the pay-back clause . We do not,
'CO)
� .&
b �a
"p6-191
Residential Trash Collection Payments - Cont' d.
Page 2
however , agree that commitments should be made to the two additional
adjustments of $0 .10 each in the future . It is our opinion that in-
creases in the Consumer Price Index will probably cover these additional
costs which will run about 6% annually. We do not anticipate that the
CPI will show annual increases less than those amounts .
COMPARISON WITH OTHER CITIES
The present rate paid the contractor is $1 .75 per month per water
meter . With an increase of $0 . 15 , the payment to the contractor will
be $1 .90 per month. This compares with the following rates for other
cities in Orange County as shown below:
CITY RATE REMARKS
Anaheim $2 . 44 Actual is $1 . 55/electric meter
Costa Mesa 2 .236 ---
Huntington Beach 1 .92 Will be $2 . 07 July 1976
Buena Park . 1 . 75 Will be $1 . 85 July 1966
Fullerton 1 .50 Increase under negotiations
Orange 1 .50 ---
Garden Grove 1 .40 ---
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The additional cost to the City due to the $0 . 15 increase will be
$6 , 000 per month or $72 , 000 per year . This is about an 8. 5% increase .
The cancellation of the pay-back feature would cause a loss of revenue
of $2 , 800 per month.
An analysis of revenue and expenditures for current fiscal year
1975-76 including the $0 . 15 increase indicates that we will pay out
$858 , 000 while receiving revenues of $840 , 000 . Revenues will be only
2.1% below expenses , which is reasonably close .
An upward adjustment in our charges will be necessary to carry the
program on a self-supporting basis for fiscal year 1976-77. This will
be studied and recommended as part of the budget process now underway.
The present rate being charged a single-family home is $2 . 00 per
month.
CONCLUSIONS
The contractor has indicated neither approval nor rejection of the
proposed adjustment , but we feel that it will be acceptable to him.
All the points in the trash contract previously discussed were agreed
upon by Council and the contractor. With those settled , and if these
new adjustments are approved by Council , the City Attorney can
complete the drafting of a revised contract that will be presented to
the Council for approval at their meeting of April 19 , 1976.

BACKGROUND
City Council in previous actions has established the principle of keep-
ing refuse collection on a self-supporting basis . This policy was
expressed some years ago when refuse collection costs were placed on a
direct billing system and deleted from the property tax . Our contract
with Great Western Reclamation provides for rate adjustments based on
increases or decreases in the Consumer Price Index .
The contractor has also requested a special rate adjustment due to
increased costs for wages and fringe benefits which resulted from a new
union contract following the county-wide refuse industry strike that
occurred in the spring of 1975 . He requested an immediate $0 . 15 per
water meter per month adjustment with two additional $0 . 10 adjustments
to occur in the future . The City staff has recommended the $0 . 15 adjust-
ment but feels that the future special labor adjustments should not be
granted as they probably will be covered by increases in CPI in the
future .
PAYMENT TO CONTRACTOR
It is estimated that payments to contractor for the 1976-77 fiscal year
will be as shown below. The new contract will provide for CPI adjust-
ments to occur only once a year effective July 1 , 1976 based upon the
preceding CPI figures for the month of May. The estimated payment of
$2 . 00 represents a total increase of $0 . 25 over the current rate of
$1 .75 per water meter per month.
Present rate per water meter per month $1 . 75
Estimated CPI adjustment 0. 10
Special labor settlement adjustment _0. 15
TOTAL $2 . 00

CONCLUSION
An increase in refuse charges to our customers amounting to about 9 . 9%
will be required to keep the refuse collection program on a self-supporting
basis . This would indicate an increase from $2 . 00 to $2 . 20 per month
for a single-family residence . Without the increase a deficit of $88 , 795
will accrue by the end of the 1976-77 fiscal year .

EKO PROTECTION SERVICE The modified proposal
FREE BUS SHELTERS PROPOSAL of EKO Protection
REFERRED Service presented to
Council at its meeting
Of April 19, 1976, was referred to Staff to determine whether
or not the City' s agreement with the Orange County Transit
District to install 22 bus shelters would be jeopardized
in any way should Council choose to allow EKO Protection
Service to install an additional 22 bus shelters at other
locations in the City, on a one year trial basis , on the
motion of Councilman Bricken, seconded by Councilman Yamamoto,
and carried (5 : 1) , with Mayor Garthe dissenting.
Councilman Ward suggested that due concern be given to the
r- location of the shelters with respect to the rights and
interests of adjacent commercial and private property owners .
Prior to the motion,. Michael Silvas , 1140 West Santa Ana
Boulevard, Attorney for EKO Protection Service, stated that
the Orange County Transit District approved their proposal
commenting that it would save -tax money, andsuggestingthat
they go to the individual cities for approval of the plan;
that $55 , 000 will be expended for the 22 shelters to be
constructed by the Orange County Transit District; that
Council might consider allowing EKO to install their shel-
ters for a one-year trial period at no cost to the City:;
that they feel that a three-sided shelter as proposed by

SANTA ANA ESTABLISHING REVISED SCHEDULE OF RATES
FOR REFUSE COLLECTION AND REPEALING RESOLUTION 75-28,
EFFECTIVE OCTOBER 1 , 1975
WHEREAS, Article II , Chapter 16 of the Santa Ana Municipal
Code-provides for refuse collection regulation and authorizes the
establishment of charges for the collection and disposal of refuse
by resolution; and
WHEREAS, Resolution 75-28 established rates for collection and
disposal of refuse including rates for commercial containers which have
been in effect since October 1974; and
WHEREAS, increased costs since 1974 now require an upward adjust- •
ment in residential collection charges;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED: That Resolution 75-28 is
repealed, effective October 1 , 1975.
BE IT FURTHER PESOLVED: That the rates hereinbelow set out are
the rates that shall be due to the City for the collection and disposal of
refuse and/or for standby or the availability of said service. Said rates
shall be added to the rate charges for water service and billed with the bill
for water service. Any residential , commercial , or industrial occupancy not
served by a separate water meter, shall be separately billed for standby
collection and refuse disposal service. All rates for such services shall
be due and payable at the Finance Department in the City Hall on the date
of billing therefor and become delinquent 15 days from and after the date
of such billing. A penalty of 10% shall be charged on all unpaid bills
for such service 30 days from and after the billing date.

able for such container within the boundary lines of subject
property. In no case, however, shall container locations be
permitted in the front yard set-back or within areas required
for meeting the minimum off-street parking requirements of
applicable zoning regulations. Any applicant who has been
denied a waiver by the Director of Public Works may appeal
such action to the City Council by filing within 30 days after
such denial , a written statement of his reasons why the City

REPORT ON COMMERCIAL TRASH CONTAINER RATES Cr-
BACKGROUND
The contract between the City of Santa Ana and Great Western Reclamation
provides that providing commercial trash containers is to be handled by
agreements between the Contractor and the customer. The contract also
states that the rates shall be subject to the approval of the Director of
Public Works.
Since these rates affect a large segment of the community i .e. , business,
industry and multi-family residential, we have in recent years brought the
rate schedules to the City Council for review and approval. The current
rates are contained in a resolution adopted by City Council and have been
in effect since September 1971.
The Contractor, Great Western Reclamation, some time ago asked that the rates
be increased due to increased costs that have been experienced during the
past 3-1/2 years. This office has been negotiating with their officials
for some weeks and have reached a conclusion that appears to be mutually
acceptable.
Although not a part of these negotiations but an additional factor which must
be considered is that the Contractor's labor union agreement expires on April
18, 1975 and the effect of increased wages and benefits will have an additional
impact on not only the commercial containers rates but the rates paid to the
Contractor by the City for individual residential trash collection service.
ANALYSIS
The U. S. Consumer Price Index has risen 23% from September 1971 to December
1974. Extrapolating this ahead indicates that the increase to April 1, 1975
would total about 26%.
The purchase price to the Contractor for a 3 cubic yard container was $112.00
in September 1971. Today the same unit costs 5251.60 or an increase of 125%
during the 3-1/2 year period.
The price paid for diesel fuel by the Contractor in January 1973 was $0.102
per gallon. In January 1975 the price had risen to $0.289 per gallon or an
increase of 183% during the 2 year period.
In June 1972, the Contractor paid $32,681 for a 3-axle, 10-wheel, front-end
loader, packer refuse truck. In October 1974 the price quoted was 846,243
or an increase of 42% in the 2-1/2 year period. As of today, a firm price
quotation cannot be obtained but only that the cost will be the market price
at time of delivery which is about one year after placement of order.

There are about 2,950 containers now placed in Santa Ana. The present monthly
rates and proposed new rates are shown in the following tabulation:

A table showing the comparison with other cities in Orange County for the 3 cubic
yard container is attached. Very few other contractors provide bin sizes other
than the 3 cubic yard so it is difficult to make a comparison in the other sizes . In
reviewing the table certain facts should be kept in mind. Brea and Placentia are in
close proximity to the county regional disposal site, the Brea-Olinda Landfill.
Huntington Beach has a transfer station within its boundaries and Orange has access to
one just outside its western border. Tustin has a shorter haul distance to the Coyote
Canyon Landfill than Santa Ana. These are advantages enjoyed by other cities
because of their location which tends to reduce their cost of hauling refuse to
points of disposal.
City Manager 3 February 12, 1975
CONCLUSIONS
This office feels that the increases requested are reasonable and justified.
They range from 12.5% to 21.0% with an over-all average of about 19.8%. The
matter of new wage rates for the Contractor after April will require recon-
sideration of the rate schedules. If both this adjustment and that one can
be considered in a single package, there should be less adverse public reaction.
It would seem that an increase coming only two months after another would be
hard for the business community to understand or support .
RECOMMENDATION
That this report be placed on the City Council agenda as a discussion item
at their meeting of February 18, 1975.
