TITLE: WORKSHOP,SOLID WASTE FRANCHISE AGREEMENT
PRESENTED BY: PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT
RECOMMENDATION: CONDUCT SOLID WASTE WORKSHOP
BACKGROUND:
The solid waste franchise agreement was originally amended in March 1998 between the City
and USA Waste of California. This agreement was amended in March 2002 to change the term
of the agreement from a fixed term to a 6-year tern, renewable on the anniversary of the
agreement for an additional year so that the remaining term is six-years unless notice is given.
The current agreement was renewed on April 1, 2009 and will expire on March 31, 2015.
In 2007, USA Waste of California, dba Waste Management of the Inland Empire, sold the
franchise agreement to Burrtec Waste Industries, and on-June 12, 2007, the Council formally
approved the transfer of the franchise agreement. On August 14, 2007, the Council adopted an
amended Integrated Waste Management Agreement.
DISCUSSION:
Since 2007, Burrtec has worked with the City to improve and enhance the service levels, and
recently approached the city to request an amendment to the agreement to-further improve the
operations of the agreement. Burrtec is proposing to amend the following areas of the
agreement. A copy of the draft amendment is attached to this staff report.
1. Burrtec is proposing to assume responsibility for the collection of illegally dumped
materials along the city's main streets and thoroughfares. This service is proposed at no
additional cost to the city and would assist the city in maintaining a clean and
aesthetically pleasing community.
2. Institute the use of alternative fueled vehicles, as required by AQMD Rule 1193. This
would advance the city's goals towards being an environmental leader.
1
3. Amend the agreement to include -the payment to the city of a Pavement Impact Fee,
estimated at 3.5% of the service and disposal portion. This funding stream would
recognize the impact that the operations of three 10-ton collection trucks have each week
on the city's streets, and would provide an additional funding source to.supplement the
Staff city's street paving program. estimates that this funding source would be
approximately $35,000 per year.
4. Require the replacement of all residential containers with new containers, color coded
black for refuse, blue for recycling and green for yard wastes, bringing the city into
consistency with surrounding cities and generally accepted practices.
5. Increase the length of the term of the agreement from the current 6-year period to 10-
years in order to improve the funding of the various improvements.
As part of the negotiations, staff reviewed the operating costs of two programs that he City is
currently providing as part of the solid waste collection services. The first is the Coui ty of San
Bernardino Household Hazardous Waste program which allows Grand Terrace residents to
disposal of household hazardous materials at no cost to the resident. The second program is the
city's street sweeping program, which provides monthly sweeping of all residential streets, and
weekly sweeping of all commercial and industrial streets. It was determine that the existing rates
do not currently cover the costs of both these programs, resulting in a subsidy from the general
fund.
Currently,the existing cost for the HHW program is$11,884;however,the city is only collecting
$0.20 per household per month, for a total revenue of $7,454, leaving a deficit of $4,430. In
addition, the street sweeping program is currently budgeted for $54,000 per year; however the
city is only collecting $0.92 per household per month, for a total revenue of$ 34,290, leaving a
deficit of$19,710. In addition, the residential sector is bearing 100% of the cost of the street
sweeping program, while the actual service is allocated .66% to residential and 34% to
commercial.
Finally, staff requested that Burrtec review its current costs and in light of the economic
recession, determine if any rate reductions would be possible. As a result of BurrtelcIs review,
they have identified an approach that will allow the City to maintain the existing rates to the
residential customers while allowing the city.to recoup the additional street sweeping and HHW
program costs as well as collect the additional cost for the Pavement Impact Fete. On the
commercial side, staff was able to add the street sweeping component and Pavement Impact Fee
to the rates while only requiring a modest rate increase of approximately 2%.
Stag is conducting a workshop with the Council to provide a current status on the City's solid
waste collection and recycling program and to present in greater details the proposed
amendments and rate restructuring for discussion. During the workshop, the Council may
provide further direction to staff regarding additional amendments or considerations that can be
incorporated into the proposed Franchise Agreement amendment and rate resolutions. Staff
anticipates presentation of the amendments and rate resolution for consideration at the December
8, 2009 council meeting; if approved, the proposed rates will become effective January 1, 2010.

provides two programs under the solid waste agreement
Contracts with County of San Bernardino for Household

� Ries Considerations
Current refuse rates include cost for street sweeping and
household hazardous waste (HHW) .
Existing rates for street sweeping and HHW have not been
adjusted, resulting in general fund subsidy.
Burrtec has identified cost savings and has ,indicated
willingness to pass these savings through to the City.
Collection operations, due to use of three collection trucks
cause a significant increase in pavement damage, therefore
staff explored possibility of including Pavement Impact Fee.
Above all, no or small rate increase to recognize economic
times.

shall not apply to vehicles or services pursuant to paragraph (e).
(c) Definitions
For purposes of this rule, the following definitions shall apply:
(1) ALTERNATIVE-FUEL HEAVY-DUTY VEHICLE means a heavy-duty
vehicle or engine that uses compressed or liquefied natural gas, liquefied
petroleum gas, methanol, electricity, fuel cells, or other advanced
technologies that do not rely on diesel fuel.
(2) APPROVED CONTROL DEVICE(s) is an exhaust control device(s) that
is verified or certified by CARE to reduce particulate matter and possibly
other precursor emissions. ,For the purposes of this rule, a new heavy-duty
vehicle equipped with approved control devices means that the engine
family has been certified by CARB. A pre-owned heavy-duty vehicle
equipped with approved control devices means that the device has been
verified or certified by CARE. To be considered fitted with an approved
control device(s), all diesel exhaust from the vehicle must be vented
through such a device(s) that has been fitted at the time of vehicle
purchase or fitted by a certified device installer at the time the device is
delivered to the operator.

(3) DUAL-FUEL HEAVY-DUTY VEHICLE means a heavy-duty vehicle
equipped with a diesel engine that uses an- alternative fuel (such as
compressed or liquefied natural gas, liquefied petroleum gas, methanol, or
other advanced technologies) in combination with diesel fuel to enable
compression ignition. A dual-fuel engine typically uses the alternative
fuel to supply 85 percent of the total engine fuel requirement on a BTU
basis. A dual-fuel engine must be certified by CARB to meet an
applicable optional nitrogen oxide or combined nitrogen oxide plus no, -
methane hydrocarbons exhaust emission standard and be fitted with an
approved control device that achieves a particulate matter emissions
reduction level no less than the particulate matter emissions reduction
level achieved by the latest CARB verified or certified particulate matter
control device for the applicable engine family operating entirely on diesel
fuel.
(4) HEAVY-DUTY VEHICLE means any vehicle having a gross vehicle
weight of at least 14,000 pounds.
(5) PILOT IGNITION HEAVY-DUTY VEHICLE means a heavy-duty
vehicle equipped with an engine designed to operate using an alternative
fuel as defined in paragraph (c)(1), except that diesel fuel is used for pilot
ignition at an average ratio of no more than one part diesel fuel to ten par s
total fuel on an energy equivalent basis. The engine shall not operate or
idle solely on diesel fuel at any time.
(6) PUBLIC OR PRIVATE SOLID WASTE COLLECTION FLEET
OPERATOR is a person who owns, leases,or operates substantially in the
District, solid waste collection, rolloff, or transfer vehicles. A person isl a

Common examples of Universal Wastes include Televisions, Computers. Computer
protecting Monitors, Batteries, and Fluorescent Lamps. Universal wastes are hazardous upon
dye heal& disposal but pose a lower risk to people and the environment than other hazardous
wastes. State and Federal regulations identify which unwanted products are universal
and the wastes and provide simple rules for handling and recycling of them. These regula-

1-3 (all citations in this fact sheet refer to the California Code of Regulations, title 22.

Universal wastes are generated by a wide variety of people and businesses. The uni-

MEETING DATE: November 10, 2009 Council-Item ( ) CRA Item ( X )
TITLE: Neighborhood Improvement Program Progress Report
PRESENTED BY: Community and Economic Development Department
RECOMMENDATION: No action is requested.
BACKGROUND:
On February 24, 2009, the Agency approved the Neighborhood Improvement Program and
appropriated $25,000 to fund the program through the remaining 2008-09 Fiscal Year. The
Program was developed to assist low- to moderate-income residents with exterior property
improvements by purchasing materials such as landscaping, fencing, new garage doors and paint.
The homeowner contributes the labor.
The Program has allowed staff to address both broad neighborhood preservation goals and
individual property deterioration, including code violations. The eligible residents may receive
up to $1,000.00 in materials and are required to sign a Maintenance Agreement to receive
funding.
DISCUSSION:
Between March and June of Fiscal Year 2008-09, 25 eligible residents received materials
through the Program and improved their property. Also, funded through the Program was the
June 6, 2009, neighborhood clean-up in the Grand Terrace Road-Vivienda neighborhood.
The Agency approved an additional $30,000 for the Program for Fiscal Year 2009-10. Since
July 1, 2009, 20 residents have received materials for exterior improvements, and eight
additional residents have been approved for Program funding. Also, the October 17, 2009 block
wall painting project along Mount Vernon Avenue was funded through this allocation. The
Program paid for paint and equipment, and volunteers cleaned the walls and painted over various
shades of paint from graffiti removal.
As originally envisioned, the Program has been an effective mechanism in correcting code
violations. Fourteen cited property owners who had no other means to address the violations
were able to take advantage of this Program.
A Power Point presentation including before and after photos will be presented during the
meeting to demonstrate the success of the program.
CRA AGENDA ITEM NO.

FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no fiscal impact other than staff time associated with this progress report. Community
and Economic Development staff may request additional program funding for FY 200�9-10 early
in 2010.

PUBLIC COMMENT
I
Denis Kidd, 22874 Pico, urged the Council to reaffirm their support of having a Metrolink
Station in Highgrove. RCTC's Engineering concluded that a station could not be built on
the site, however,they are seeking a second opinion.
Barney Barnett, 474 Prospect Avenue, Highgrove, apologized for not being at the last
meeting, he was advised that the item was not going to be on the agenda, however, it was.
He requested that the City Council consider,at their next meeting,adopting a Resolution or
letter of support in regards to reaffirming that the Highgrove location is the best location for
a Metrolink stop for the people of Grand Terrace. He would like the Council to review all
of the information that is on their website www.hi gh jaro vehappenings.net. He stated that the
EIR is not complete so that it is not a done deal and feels that if Federal Tax Dollars are used
then it should benefit the entire region including Grand Terrace and Highgrove and the entire
surrounding area.
JoAnn Johnson, 12723 Mt. Vernon Avenue,expressed her support for the City's continued
involvement in urging RCTC to reconsider the Highgrove site for the Metrolink Station. She
feels that Highgrove is the most logical station and that it would benefit a large area
including Grand Terrace.

Terrace and all of the surrounding cities.

AGENDA REPORT
MEETING DATE: November 10, 2009 Council Item( X) CRA Item ( )
(� TITLE: STATE COPS SLESF GRANT-FY 2009-10 Expenditure Plan
PRESENTED BY: Bernie Simon
RECOMMENDATION: Approve FY 2009-10-COPS SLESF Grant Expenditure Plan
BACKGROUND:
Agencies receiving SLESF money must have a formal expenditure plan approved by the
governing body. The agency must then report how such funds were spent in comparison to the
approved spending plan at the end of the fiscal year.
In accordance with Section 30061 of the Government Code:
"Any request submitted pursuant to this paragraph shall
specify the frontline law enforcement needs of the requesting entity,
and those personnel, equipment, and programs That are necessary to
meet those needs. The board shall, at a public hearing held at a time
determined by the board in each year that the Legislature
appropriates funds for purposes-of this chapter, or within 30 days
after a request by'a recipient agency for a hearing if the funds have
been received by the county from the state prior to that request,
consider and determine each submitted request within 60 days of
receipt, pursuant to the decision of a majority of a quorum present."
The FY 09-10 budget document accounts for the anticipated Supplemental Law Enforcement
Safety Fund (SLESF AB3229 COPS) in Fund 14 on page 140.
DISCUSSION:
The proposed spending plan is similar to the previous years' spending plan. The estimated FY
09-10 grant revenue is $100,000 which partially pays for:
Sheriff s Department special services officer(SSO) and related costs $ 67,690
One General Law Patrol Car $214,567
Sheriff Contract related overhead costs 3 9% $ 6,357
Fuel and Maintenance on vehicles $ 9,304
Grand Terrace overhead cost allocation $ 500
$298,418
COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM NO.3
1
C
i
The grant will be supplemented by a Traffic Safety Fund transfer of $45,000 and a General Fund
transfer of$153,418 to pay for the remaining cost of the deputy and program incidentals. The
total adopted budget is $298,418 for the SLESF Fund.
Our approved expenditure plan is due to the County no later than December 3, 2009. The
Auditor-Controller will release funds after the Supplemental Law Enforcement Oversight
Committee certifies receipt of all recipient agencies' approved plans.
FISCAL IMPACT:
None by this action. Funds already budgeted'for FY 2009-10.

Good morning,
Attached is a letter which we received yesterday from our
Auditor/Controller's Office in regards to the 2009-10 COPS SLESF funds.
According to the letter the State is estimated the VLF revenues at
$497M. Based on this revenue amount they have estimated the allocation
amounts for each jurisdiction Along with the letter there.is a table
which shows the estimated amount that each city is tentative to receive.
Please develop your expenditure plans based on the estimated allocation
amount, but keep in mind that this is only an estimate If the total
VLF revenue comes below the estimated $497M, your allocation amounts
will be re-calculated The due date for your expenditure plans is still
set for December 3, 2009
Please feel free to call me if you have any questions.

To all SLESF Points of Contact,
The California State Controller has informed us that the Supplemental ! r
Law Enforcement Services Fund (SLESF) funding was changed as part of the
2008 emergency budget revision legislation SLESF is now funded by
Vehicle License Fee (VLF) collections and is therefore not a set annual
amount. While each city is still guaranteed a minimum of$100,000 by
Government Code Section 30061, any additional amounts are contingent on
VLF collections. Please develop your expenditure plan based on the
minimum amount and submit a copy along with City Council approval to the
Sheriffs Department by no later than December 3, 2009.
I
i
The San Bernardino County Auditor-Controller shall release funds in four
different installments after the Supplemental Law Enforcement Oversight
Committee (SLEOC) certifies receipt of all recipient agencies' approved !
plans. The SLEOC is scheduled to meet on January 14, 2009.

OFFICE OF THE DIRECTOR
October 1, 2009
The Honorable Larry Walker
Auditor-Controller-Recorder
County of San Bernardino
222 West Hospitality Lane,4th Floor
San Bernardino, CA 92415-0018
The Local Safety and Protection Account(LSPA) in the Transportation Fund is anticipated to
receive $497 million in revenues in 2009-10 Based on the formulas contained in Government
Code Section 30051, the Department of Finance(Finance)estimates a total of$211 722 million
in LSPA revenues will be available for purposes of the Citizens' Option for Public Safety (COPS)
program and the Juvenile Justice Crime Prevention Act(JJCPA)program.
Pursuant to Government Code Section 30061, Finance estimates the COPS and JJCPA
programs will each receive$105.861 million. In addition, Chapter 158, Statutes of 2003,
authorizes up to $275,000 from the juvenile justice allocation to be available to the Corrections
Standards Authority for administrative purposes.
Pursuant to current law, the State Controller is required to allocate the COPS and JJCPA funds
to each county that has established a Supplemental Law Enforcement Services Fund (SLESF)
in accordance with Section 30061 of the Government Code, and in accordance with the
proportionate share of the state's total population that resides in each county and city and
county The Controller is required to make all disbursements upon request of an individual
county and city and county that has established a SLESF, and has established an oversight
committee pursuant to Section 30064 of the Government Code.
Current law requires the county auditor to allocate moneys to the county's SLESF, including any
interest or other return earned on the investment of those moneys, within 30 days of the deposit
of those moneys in accordance with the.following requirements:
1 5 15 percent to the county sheriff for county jail construction and operation
2. 5 15 percent to the district attorney for criminal prosecution
3 39 7 percent to the county and the cities within the county in accordance with the relative
population for the cities within the county and the unincorporated area of the county
Accordingly, a population estimate for your county is enclosed and a listing of allocations '
for each eligible entity The population estimate is based on the January 1, 2009
estimate by the Population Research Unit of the Department of Finance, as required by i
Section 30061 of the Government Code j
4 50 percent to the county or city and county to implement a comprehensive mufti-agency
juvenile justice plan, as specified These funds are intended to cover the cost of approved
plan activities from October 1, 2009 through September 30, 2010

The attached allocations reflect the $211 722 million provided in the Budget Act allocated irito
the four categories above, based on the percentages in statute (i.e 21 30 percent of total
anticipated LSPA revenues for COPS, and an additional 21.30 percent of LSPA revenues-fl r
JJCPA) Within each category allocations are based on population, as required by statute.i
For the 39 7 percent front-line law enforcement category,the allocations also reflect a minimum
grant of$100,000. Therefore, entities that would have received less than $100,000 based on —
the population distribution formula were provided additional amounts while entities that received
more than $100,000 were adjusted proportionately downward, so the total amount allocated is
$84 054 million The amounts distributed to each city within the county and to the county for the
unincorporated population were summed to determine front-line law enforcement totals provided
to each county for allocation to the cities within the county
Please note that legislation enacted concurrent with the 2009 Budget Act now requires that
COPSIJJCPA payments be distributed in four equal installments beginning October 1
Consequently, you will not receive a lump-sum payment as in previous years.
We have attached information showing how the anticipated 2009-10 COPS/JJCPA moneys are
to be allocated. The allocations should be made in four installments
i
if the VLF revenues deposited in the LSPA are either greater than or less than $497 million,, the
COPS/JJCPA allocations will be adjusted on a pro-rated basis.
After allocation of funds to each county's SLESF for the juvenile justice program, the SLESIF
shall only allocate funding for the juvenile justice program after the juvenile justice plan hasi(1)
been approved by the county board of supervisors, and in the case of a city and county,the
plan has been approved by the mayor, and (2)the plan has been submitted to the Corrections
Standards Authority and notification from the Authority has been received indicating approval
For questions regarding the COPS program and the allocation of funds for the JJCPA progi am,
please contact Chris Hill, Principal Program Budget Analyst, at (916) 322-2263 For questions
regarding the juvenile justice program approval and requirements, please contact Aaron Long at

Ouarter-to-Date
Total cash and investments decreased$4,195,251 or(20.34%)over the previous quarter end with a total
of$16,434,313. The majority of the cash decrease is attributable to the normal lack of revenue receipts in
the first quarter and second quarter of the fiscal year. The average yield continues to decline as investment
income yields continue to decline. LAIF net yield is now .75%compared to 1.51%in June 2009.
Overall cash and investments decreased(20.72%)for the quarter for a total of$17,736,777. Cash with
fiscal agent decreased$441,517 primarily as a result of the refinancing of the 1997 Certificates of
