RECOMMENDED ACTION
Direct the City Attorney to prepare and authorize the City Manager and
the Clerk of the Council to execute an amended agreement with Waste
Management Inc. for collection and recycling of the City's solid waste.
DISCUSSION
In 1996 the City entered into an exclusive agreement with Waste
Management Inc. to collect and recycle the City's residential, commercial
and industrial waste. wi th that agreement the City implemented the
three-cart curbside program, the wet/dry commercial program and the
sorted industrial waste programs that are currently in place. That
agreement has been amended to provide alley and parkway clean-up.
The proposed amended agreement will incorporate the additional services
to the City into one agreement and extend the term of
through the year 2018. In exchange, the City will receive
fiscal year 05-06 and $500,000 in each of the remaining
agreement. These payments will not affect customer rates.

$1,000,000 in
years of the
Customer rates will continue to be competitive. In 2004 Santa Ana's
curbside rates were mid range and commercial rates were in the lower one-
third of the rates in the County. Currently, these rates may be
increased each year by 7.5%. With the proposed amended agreement the
rates can only be increased each year by 5 percent.
Under the proposed amended agreement Waste Management will continue to
utilize the trucks purchased by the City in 1996 and will begin replacing
them in 2006 with low emission vehicles. In addition, collection of
televisions, computers and monitors will be included with the City's
large item pickup service for curbside customers.
