MOORPARK CITY COUNCIL
AGENDA REPORT
TO: Honorable City Council
FROM: Roger Pichardo, Program Manager
DATE: 03/06/2024 Regular Meeting
SUBJECT: Consider Senate Bill (SB) 1383 Local Assistance Grant Program Fiscal
Year (FY) 2022/23 and Adopt Resolution Authorizing City Manager to
Submit Grant Application to California Department of Resources
Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle), and Rescinding Resolution No.
2023-4217
BACKGROUND
The California Department of Resources and Recovery (CalRecycle) offers the Senate
Bill (SB) 1383 Local Assistance Grant Program FY 2022/23 Pursuant to Chapter 395,
Statutes of 2016. This noncompetitive grant program will provide funding to local
jurisdictions to assist with the implementation of regulation requirements associated with
SB 1383. The term of the Program begins April 1, 2024, and ends April 2, 2026. Program
expenditures may start no earlier than the date of the award of funds.
On February 5, 2024, the City received notice from CalRecycle that not all jurisdictions
applied for the subject grant funding. Therefore, the remaining funds, along with
additional funds that became available, will be redistributed to the jurisdictions that
applied, increasing the amount the City of Moorpark will receive. Although, Resolution
No. 2023-4217 authorized the City to receive grant funds under the Program in FY
2023/24, that authorization referenced the FY 2022/23 estimated allocation and does not
provide a provision whereby the City can accept any additional funding over the amount
stated in the City’s Resolution, which is $77,305.00. Thus, the proposed Resolution
authorizes the City Manager to accept additional grant funds to implement the regulation
requirements associated with SB 1383.
DISCUSSION
Under the terms of the CalRecycle SB 1383 Local Assistance Grant Program FY 2022/23,
the City of Moorpark is eligible to apply for grant funding to assist with the implementation
of regulation requirements associated with SB 1383. CalRecycle grant funding can be
used to support a variety of program areas related to SB 1383, such as planning, edible

food recovery and collection, education and outreach, program enforcement and
inspection services, program evaluation and gap analysis, and record keeping.
Additionally, grant funding can be used for the procurement of locally recovered organic
waste products, such as mulch and compost. Currently, the City allocates $25,000
annually for the procurement of mulch that is spread in the parks. This grant funding
could help offset those costs, resulting in savings to the General Fund.
Allocation to recipients is calculated on a per capita basis using the Department of
Finance’s population statistics. The Program application, which was due on November
15, 2023, and submitted prior to the deadline, contained an approved grant Resolution
adopted by the City Council on October 18, 2023, authorizing the submission of the
application and identifying the individual(s) authorized to execute any agreements,
contracts, and requests for payments in the amount of $77,305. However, since other
cities did not apply for grant funding, additional funds will be distributed to the applicants
that did apply, based on population. For the City to be eligible for approximately $21,812
in additional funds, staff recommends rescinding Resolution No. 2023-4217 and adopting
a new Resolution with a provision that allows the City Manager to accept all grant funding
available through the CalRecycle Grant Program. Program expenditures do not require
applicants to provide cost-share or matching funds.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION
This action is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) as it does
not constitute a project, as defined by Section 15378 of the State CEQA Guidelines.
Therefore, no environmental review is required.
FISCAL IMPACT
Awarded state grant funds will be used for Program expenditures throughout the course
of the grant's term and will be budgeted accordingly in the Solid Waste Fund.
COUNCIL GOAL COMPLIANCE
This action does not support a current strategic directive.
