CITY OF MOORPARK Lary Council Meeting
Of
TO: Honorable City Council ACTIOd1
FROM: Jill Rubin Myers, Solid Waste Coordinator
DATE: April 10, 1995 (CC Meeting of April 19, 1995) v
SUBJECT: Consider Negotiations for Residential and Commercial
Solid Waste Contracts
BACKGROUND
At the City Council meeting on February 15, 1995, it was staff's
understanding that the City Council directed an Ad Hoc Committee")
to negotiate exclusive franchise agreements with Anderson Rubbish
and G.I. Rubbish to provide both residential and commercial
collection services. Additionally, the City Council directed staff
to delay the PRC hauler notification until a final contract is
presented to the City Council, with the understanding that the City
Council will continue to accept and review other information
presented by Browning- Ferris Industries (BFI) and others.
The Council's direction at the February 15 meeting followed the
January 31 Special Meeting of the Public Works, Facilities, and
Solid Waste Committee (Councilmembers Montgomery and Wozniak). At
that meeting, the Committee discussed the residential haulers'
(Anderson Rubbish and G. I. Rubbish) request for a $0.15 residential
recycling rate increase, although no agreement was reached on that
matter at the meeting. Because of the upcoming contract
negotiations and the uncertainty at that time about future rate
increases or decreases, the Committee suggested that the
residential haulers forgo the requested monthly recycling rate
increase until after the conclusion of the contract negotiations.
Based on the results of the negotiations, it was recognized that
the haulers may have the opportunity, if necessary, to
retroactively recapture all or part of their requested recycling
fee increase.
Since the February 15 City Council meeting, concerns have been
expressed about the benefits of going out to competitive bid, as a
result of the information provided by BFI representatives.
At the April 5 City Council meeting, Mayor Pro Tem Perez requested
and Council concurred to have this item placed on the April 19 City
Council agenda for reconsideration. The Ad Hoc Committee
(Councilmembers Hunter and Wozniak) has not yet held a meeting.
