RECOMMENDED ACTION
Hold a Public Hearing and adopt a resolution increasing the City curbside cart refuse rates by
$1.90, effective July 1, 2020, and by $1.50, effective July 1, 2021.
DISCUSSION
The City contracts with Waste Management (WM) for the collection and handling of solid waste.
On March 17, 2020, City Council approved a one-year extension of the City's agreement with WM
through June 30, 2022. This amendment was needed to meet the City's Solid Waste Request for
Proposals (RFP) expanded timeline. Also included in the amendment was additional programming
to address the requirements of Assembly Bill 1594 (AB 1594), which went into effect on January 1,
2020.
AB 1594 eliminates diversion credit for green waste sent to County landfills as Alternative Daily
Cover (ADC). Prior to this legislation, WM delivered green waste collected from the City's
customers to a third -party processor for grinding and transfer to the Orange County Landfill System
for use as ADC. WM provided this service at no charge to customers, and the City received
diversion credit to meet other State mandates. Under the new requirements of AB 1594, WM has
continued to deliver green waste for processing, however the material is now being composted,
which still provides the City with diversion credit but at an increased cost to WM. To maintain
mandated AB 1594 compliance during the agreement extension period, and to compensate WM
for costs not previously accounted for in the agreement, the City and Waste Management, with the
assistance of the City's solid waste consultant, negotiated customer rate adjustments (July 1, 2020,
and July 1, 2021) as part of the amendment. WM will continue to provide these enhanced
processing services at no cost to ratepayers through June 30, 2020.
Rate Design
In recent years, the courts have made rulings with respect to California Constitution Article XIII C
and D (commonly known as Proposition 218) that place the burden of proof on agencies to
demonstrate that all aspects of refuse rates are directly proportionate to the cost of providing
service. The proposed refuse rate increases are structured to directly align with Waste
75A-1
Public Hearing: Resolution Increasing Curbside Refuse Cart Rates
June 2, 2020
Page 2
Management's increased cost for composting green waste. Refuse rates are proposed to be fixed
for all curbside customers.
Staff recommends adopting a resolution (Exhibit 1) increasing the City curbside cart refuse rates
by $1.90, effective July 1, 2020, and by $1.50, effective July 1, 2021. The total two-year rate
adjustment for the composting service equals $3.40 per residential unit per month. This rate
represents a direct pass -through to the customer of the costs to address the AB 1594 mandated
service changes. The rate adjustments have been structured in two gradual increases to ease the
impact on the ratepayer.
Implementation Date
Increase Amount*
July 1, 2020
$1.90
July 1, 2021
$1.50
*These amounts do not consider the standard annual adjustments.
Typical Bill Impact
The financial impact of the proposed revenue adjustments on the typical customer was carefully
evaluated. The typical bill of a curbside cart customer will be increased $1.90 per month, effective
July 1, 2020, and increased by an additional $1.50 per month effective July 1, 2021. These rate
increases are based on actual cost of service. When compared to neighboring cities, the typical
Santa Ana customer will continue to pay a similar amount, on average, for curbside cart service as
compared to its neighboring cities such as Garden Grove, Brea, Fullerton and Yorba Linda.
Public Hearing Notification
As required by the provisions of Proposition 218, notices of a public hearing for adjusting refuse
rates were mailed to all property owners within the City of Santa Ana refuse service area on or
before April 15, 2020 (Exhibits 2 and 3).
STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT
Approval of these items support the City's efforts to meet Goal #4 - City Financial Stability, Objective
#1 (maintain a stable, efficient and transparent financial environment).
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
There is no environmental impact associated with this action.
FISCAL IMPACT
The proposed rates are designed to meet the cost of service requirements of Proposition 218.
There is no fiscal impact associated with this action, as the rate increases are a direct pass -through
to WM.

The increased cost of composting green waste, in place of use as Alternative Daily
Cover is $570) per ton. The estimated 30,492(2) tons of green waste at $57 per ton
equals the total increased cost per year $1,738,044(3). When spread over the 42,105(4)
customers, the cost is $3.44(5) per customer, per month. The City negotiated a $.04(6)
reduction per month, as well as tiered implementation, in which customers pay $1.90(7)
per month for the first year, and an additional $1.50(8) per month in the second year.
The final result is a monthly increase of $3.40 during the second year. This cost is a
direct pass -through to Waste Management to pay for the composting process, and will
not be used for other purposes.

The City of Santa Ana is proposing increases to its residential/curbside cart refuse collection rates. Customers who would
be impacted by these changes are receiving this notice. The City of Santa Ana is dedicated to providing reliable and cost-
effective curbside cart refuse collection service to its customers. The proposed increases are structured to directly align
Waste Management's (WM) increased cost for composting green waste. This is based on a proposed cost of $go.i3 per
ton to process and compost green waste, versus a current cost of $33.13 per ton to use green waste as landfill alternative
daily cover.
We are seeking feedback to help the City Council make the right choice for the City of Santa Ana and its ratepayers.
CHANGE IN LEGISLATIVE MANDATES
Landfill operators must cover all disposed solid waste at the end of each day and may use alternative materials in lieu of
earthen materials. These materials are referred to as alternative daily cover (ADC). As of January i, 2020, pursuant to
Assembly Bill 1594, the use of green waste as ADC does not qualify for diversion credit and will be considered disposal
for purposes of measuring a jurisd iction's compliance with other state mandates. Previously, green waste collected from
the City's customers by WM was minimally processed by a third -party green waste facility, transferred to landfills to be
used as ADC, and the City received diversion credit. To continue receiving diversion credit under the new restrictions of
AB 1594, the green waste is now being composted by the third -party green waste facility, but at a higher cost to WM.
If the proposed rate adjustments are approved by the City Council, residential/curbside cart refuse rates will increase as
set forth in the table below:
July 1, 2020 1 $1.90
July 1, 2021 1 $1.50 1
amamrts
At the time of the Public Hearing, the City Council will hear and consider all protests and objections to theproposed
increases. Oral comments DO NOT qualify as a formal protest unless accompanied by a written protest. Upon
conclusion of the hearing, the City Council will evaluate the written protests and consider the adoption of the
proposed increases. The City Council isauthorizedtoadopt theproposed increases if written protests do not represent
at least a majority of identified parcels subject to the proposed adjustments. If adopted as proposed, the increased
rates will become effective on July 1, 2020, and July 1, 2021.

Ciudad por WM eran procesados minimamente por una instalacion verde de terceros, transferidos a vertederos Para
ser usados como ADC, y la Ciudad recibio credito de desvio. Para continuar recibiendo credito de desvio bajo las nuevas
restricciones de AB 1594, los desechos verdes ahora estan siendo compostados por la instalacion verde de terceros,
pero con un costo mas alto Para WM.
