In addition, Chief Bonano noted that increasingly, the fire service is being impacted by new
regulations from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSf4A) and the National
Fire Protection Association (NFPA). OSHA mandates operational changes in the fire service,
largely due to firefighter fatalities. These mandates have altered the way the fire department
operates on the fire ground. In addition, NFPA has recently developed new standards on
response times and fire ground performance. The goals, strategical objectives, and tactical
objectives contained in the plan are intended to bring the Arcadia Fire Department in line with I
these mandates and standards. '

City Attorney Deitsch announced the subject discussed (Casmalia Disposal Site) at the Closed
Session held earlier this evening. No reportable action was taken.
PUBLIC HEARING
On October 16, 2001, the City Council directed staff to schedule a public hearing for
consideration of a resolution establishing new refuse rates for an automated greenwaste
program for single-family residential units, new refuse rates for a waste-to-energy recycling
program for multi-family units, and to consider a contract amendment with Waste Management,
Inc.
In his presentation Patrick Malloy, Public Works Director, explained in detail the proposed refuse
diversion programs, stating in part, that the traditional recycling programs for multi-family units
have proven to be unsuccessful, primarily due to iimited space for recycling containers and a
lack of supervision by the property owner/manager. An alternative to traditional recycling is to
transform multi-family refuse to the waste-to-energy program offered by the Los Angeles County
Sanitation District. Staff recommended transforming 50% of the waste stream from multi-family
units. The partial implementation would be the best approach to this new diversion program and
will allow Waste Management (WMI) to prepare, and staff to monitor, the progress of the
program. The waste-to-energy program represents approximately $119.000 in annual disposal
costs. However, re-implementing the multi-family recycling fee can offset most of this cost. The
existing refuse contract allows the hauler to assess a monthly recycling fee of $1.00 a door for
multi-family complexes with 2 to 6 units and $1,50 a door for multi-family complexes greater
than six units. WMI is currently assessing this fee at approximately 600 of the City's 6.750 multi-
family units with a recycling program. Staff recommended assessing all multi-family units :he
recycling fee. This would generate approximately $113,000 for the program, requi'ing the City
to subsidize the remaining $6,000 from the Solid Waste Fund.
With regard to Automated Greenwaste Program, Mr. Malloy stated that the current collection
program for single family homes states that greenwaste is to be placed by the curbside in
customer provided standard refuse containers, or as bundled brush. Residents and WMI
suggest that the City could collect more greenwa~te, while providing add;tional convenience, if
96-gallon automated carts were distributed to single-family residents for greenwaste collection
services. The proposed automated greenwaste program would improve the overall diversion
rate by 2%. The' implementation of this additional collection service, standard 96-gallon
collecti,)n rates would increase relative to the number of greenwaste cans ordered by each
customer. Because of the short time period left on the existing contract, approximately two (2)
years. to keep rales as low as possible staff recommended a five (5) year contract extension
withWMI.

Currently 451 single-family homes subscribe to commer~lal bin service in lieu of traditional trash
can service. One bin provlaes capacity equivalent to six (6) 96-gallon'carts. Everything placed
Into these 'bins is taken directly \O't,he landfill, diverting ~othing '(0%). 'It is estimated that 2,400
tons of greenwaste (75%) is placed into these bins each year. At'the November 14. 2001.
community meeting the possibility of transferring all residential accounts utilizing the commercial
bin. service to cart collection service- was discussed. Based on the discussion, staff
recommended offering a commercial bin for greenwaste only; as well as each residential unit
receiving a black 96-gallon and blue 64-gallon automated cart for their reiuse and recyclables.
The cost for this service outlined in December 6, 2001 staff. report. If the bin is contaminated
with material other than greenwaste, WMI would apply an additional charge to the resident for
the additional pick-up; which would be equivaient to the temporary 3-yard, three-day rate of
$74.52.
A new issue was raised at the community meeting pertaining to horse properties within the
community. Staff is working with Waste Management, the Santa Anita Race track and the
Arboretum to see if a special program for the disposal of manure could be created. Staff will
continue to establish a resolution for these accounts and report findings to the City Council at a
later date.
Following the presentation staff responded to the Council's questions and concerns with regard
to the City's refuse and recycling programs. reporting that the law allows each jurisdiction to
transform (burn or incinerate solid waste, transforming it to electricity) up to 10% of its total
refuse generation and allocate the tonnage as diverted refuse. This is a viable program for
multi-family complexes and if the initial program was partially implemented, it would increase the
total diversion for multi family units from about 3% to 50% for the next year.
Mayor Segal OPENED the public hearing.
David Johnson, 1414 South Eight Avenue: a horse owner, expressed concerns with regard to
horse defecation, traffic safety and noise pollution generated by the growing number of refuse
trucks and the system of automated recyclable collection. Since the manure and related bedding
material is significantly heavier than traditional municipal solid waste. he is in favor of the staff
recommendation which would allow these accounts to have a commercial bin. In addition, he
felt that recycling is important and it is costly, and the City needs to educate its residents on
recycling issues and identify recycling bins with a sticker in different languages.
Floyd Larson, 2514 EI Capitan Avenue. expressed concerns with regard to the weight of 96-
gallon containers after being half way full, stating that the container will be very heavy and
difficult to move. He aiso is in favor of recyciing education.
Gino Roncelli, 1250 Ramona Road, stated in part, that the City should put.the residents first and
the state last. He also requested that the City prioritize those affected by recycling issues and
make this matter as easy as possible for residents. He felt maybe more study will help the City
to come up with a better idea. In hiS opinion the perfect idea is to have'a trash company that will
pick up everything.
Henry Brouman, 605 Windsor Road #7, moved to the City over. a year ago and did not receive
any information in the mail with regard to recycling from the City or from any other source. He is
living in a large multi-family complex and did not see any diversion going out of that area.
"

I
. Sandy Natale. 1428 Oak Meadow Road, 'spoke in favor of allowing the residents to keep the
commercial bins for greenwaste only. Also, she recommended an increase in the size of the I
recyclable bins, because they are too small.

ups by calling Waste Manegement Inc.
Vince Foley, 320 Cambridge Drive, expressed concern with regard to tr:3sh pick up fees and the
trash bins weight limit, stating in part, that there is currently a weight limit on regular trash and
recycling bins. By using 90-gallon bins the citizens will not be able to determine whether a full
greenwaste bin is with:n the weight limit or not.
Bart AndereQQ, 1225 Ramona Road, questioned the trash pick-up rate for senior citizens. Staff
clarified that the senior citizens rate is in the fee structure and has not been changed.
Councilmember Chang suggested using two different colored bins. A green for greenwaste and
a black for the horse manure and related waste.
It was MOVED by Council member Chandler, seconded by Mayor Pro tern Marshall to CLOSE
the Public Hearing,
In the discussion following close of the public hearing, Councilmember Chandler clarified that
the City, together with Waste Management and Los Angeles County Sanitation District, are
responsible for educating residents on trash and recycling issues.
Council member Kovacic stated in part, that he is in favor of [abeling the trash cans, at least in
three languages, and he is in favor of the transformation process but he does not have enough
reasons to grant a five (5) year extension to the existing Residential and Recycling Agreement
with Waste Management, at least not without WMI giving better ideas than green trash cans.
Considerable discussion ensued. Some Councilmembers suggested that the City and its
contracted waste hauler go back to the drawing board and look for better and more cost efficient
ways to deal with the public's refuse while meeting state-mandated recycling requirements;
others were in favor of granting a five (5) year extension to Waste Management, and felt that
Council needs to take action now rather than later. Council owes it to the City and does not
want to get stuck with a $10,000 per day fine.
Ray Anderson, Vice President of Municipal Marketing. WMI, responded to Council's questions
and concerns with regard to the City's refuse and recycling programs, stating in part that WMI
has on-going educational programs for residents and for the schools. He noted that in other
cities an educational program doubled the amount of recyclables taken out of those
communities. The automated greenwaste program will increase at ieast 10% of the amount of
green waste generated frem residenti:::1 areas in the City.
Following furthor discussions, it was MOVED by Council member Chandler, seconded by
Counci:rnember Chang and CARRI ED on roll call vote as follows to:
1. f,UTHORIZE the City Manager to s~ECUTE Contract Amendment NO.2 in a form approved
by the City Attorney to:
a. Implement the Automated Greenwasle collection program in the City;
b. Add the W3ste-to-Enorgy recycling program for Mu[tl-Family Residential Units
and the assessment of monthly recycling fees for this service;
c. Modify the AulorTIRted Greenwaste collection program for large pro;:>erties; and,
d. Approve a five (5) year contract extension to June 30, 2009.
