There are two (2) components used in considering an increase in rates: the Consumer Price Index (CPI) and the Simi Valley Landfill tipping fees. The benchmark annual Consumer Price Index (CPI) for this purpose was 2.150. This represents 860 of the CPI for all consumers in the Los Angeles Urbanized Area during the period September - September, less housing. The landfill tipping fee increased 13� per ton. Residential solid waste would increase 36� per month, to $17.87. The CPI component accounts for 35� of the change, and the landfill component accounts for 1� proposed increase. The senior citizen and super recycle rate would increase 29� per month to $14.40. Commercial rates would increase proportionately. BACKGROUND On December 20, 1995, the City Council approved exclusive franchise agreements for commercial and residential service with GI Rubbish and Moorpark Rubbish Disposal. The Agreements provide for a specific service fee schedule and a rate adjustment formula. Pursuant to the City's Solid Waste Franchise Agreement with GI Rubbish and Moorpark Rubbish Disposal, staff conducted a review of 000024 Solid Waste Rates CC Meeting of November 17, 1999 Page 2 the monthly service rates for commercial and residential solid waste collection service. The Agreements provide for adjustments to the service fee schedule pursuant to a specified formula that takes into account changes in the Landfill rate, Consumer Price Index (CPI), and the City's waste diversion efforts. The City Council is therefore being asked to consider increasing the monthly residential base rate by 36C, increasing the residential Senior /Super Recycler discounted rate by 29G, and increasing the commercial bin rates by the amounts specified in attachment "A," as described in the following report. The increase amounts include the annual cost of living adjustment, and a small increase in the landfill fees. No increase is proposed to the AB 939 fee portion of the rates ($1.20 for residential AB 939 fees; $1.14 for Senior & Super Recycler AB 939 fees; and 8% from commercial service for AB 939 fees). It is proposed that the new rates be effective on January 1, 2000. DISCUSSION The formula for determining an adjustment to the monthly rates is calculated by examining three components - 86% of the Consumer Price Index (CPI) All Items Less Shelter, the Simi Valley Landfill rate adjustment as calculated by the County, and the City's diversion rate. Below is an itemization of the rate components: I. The percentage change in the CPI from September 1998 to September 1999: Current residential base rate ($16.31) multiplied by 86% of the CPI (All Items Less Shelter). The September - September CPI less shelter was 2.5 %. The percentage change in the rate (86 %) gives an adjusted CPI of 2.15 %; For the commercial rate, the adjusted CPI ( +2.15 %) will be multiplied by the existing rates as detailed in attachment "X'. II. The Simi Valley Landfill adjustment: The Franchise Agreement provides for a pass- through of 45% of any increase in the hauler tipping fee at the Landfill. The Landfill adjustment component of the rate 000025 Solid Waste Rates CC Meeting of November 17, 1999 Page 3 formula is further offset by the City's AB 939 diversion rate. Any proposed increase to the Landfill tipping fee or "gate rate" is reduced by the waste diversion percentage achieved by the residents and businesses during the prior year. Therefore, when residents and business divert more waste from the Landfill via recycling and other waste reduction efforts, they will be less impacted by any proposed increases to the Landfill gate rate. The County conducts the rate review for the Simi Valley Landfill. On June 8, 1999, the Ventura County Board of Supervisors approved an increase in the Waste Control Fee to 80� per ton, effective July 1, 1999. The haulers have absorbed this 13� increase since that time. The City received notice from the Simi Valley Landfill and Recycling Center that no other landfill rate adjustment is proposed. The new rate for commercial franchised haulers is $38.23 per ton for 2000. (The self haul rate is slightly higher, $38.58 per ton, with a $15.05 minimum load price.) Therefore, the formula accounting for a proposed Landfill rate adjustment, including the offset for the City's diversion rate, is applicable. Thirteen cents per ton equates to a 1G increase in the monthly residential rate. Combining the factors (adjusted CPI 2.150 + the Landfill Increase) amounts to a proposed increase of $0.36 per household per month for regular service. Thirty -five cents of the increase is the CPI, and one -cent is the monthly amount of the landfill increase. The proposed Senior /Super Recycler discounted service increase is $0.29 per month. Attachment "A" itemizes the proposed monthly residential and commercial solid waste collection rates. STAFF RECOI- MNDATION (Roll Call Vote) 1.
