SB 1383 also contains contamination standards that must be met by generators. Other portions of SB 1383 authorize the City to adopt a mandatory recycling ordinance for recyclable materials, which may apply to all generators or only to specified generators. In this task, EcoNomics will prepare a draft ordinance for review by staff and the City Attorney and then, after incorporating comments, will prepare a final draft for presentation to the City Council. The mandatory ordinance will be written to fit into the format of the City's municipal code. Any additional new definitions required for the mandatory ordinance will be prepared for addition to the Code in the appropriate section(s). The EcoNomics team will work with City staff to discuss and recommend how the ordinance can operate. The following issues and options will be addressed as part of that process: a. Identify All Generators to be Covered by the Ordinance. b. Identify All Materials Required to be Diverted. c. Identify and Select Additional Key Provisions of the Ordinance. d. Compliance and Collections Approach. e. Collections, Processing and Disposal. f. Develop Enforcement Mechanism of Ordinance. g. Waivers and Exemptions. h. Delegation of Responsibilities. i.
