TOWN OF LOS ALTOS HILLS January 20, 2022
Staff Report to the City Council
SUBJECT: MOTION TO RE-AUTHORIZE REMOTE TELECONFERENCE

MEETINGS OF THE LEGISLATIVE BODIES OF THE TOWN OF LOS

ALTOS HILLS, INCLUDING ALL ASSOCIATED COMMITTEES,

DUE TO THE IMMINENT RISKS TO THE HEALTH AND SAFETY

OF ATTENDEES AND MAKING RELATED FINDINGS PURSUANT
TO AB 361
FROM: Steve Mattas, City Attorney
RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the City Council of the Town of Los Altos Hills (“Council”), on behalf of itself and Town Committees make a motion, pursuant to the authority set forth in AB 361 (Government Code Section 54953[e][1]), to re-authorize remote teleconference meetings of all legislative bodies of the Council, including all associated agencies, authorities, and committees, and make related findings pursuant to AB 361.

BACKGROUND:

On September 16, 2021 the Council approved a motion to continue conducting all legislative body meetings through teleconference and made required findings pursuant to AB 361 [Government Code Section 54953(e)(1)]. On October 21, 2021 the Council approved a resolution to continue conducting Council meetings, and all associated committee meetings, remotely due to an ongoing state of emergency and imminent risks to the health or safety of attendees if the meetings are held in person. The Council made findings that the requisite conditions exist for the legislative bodies of the Commission to conduct remote teleconference meetings without compliance with paragraph (3) of subdivision (b) of section 54953.

Pursuant to Government Code Section 54953(e)(3), in order for all legislative bodies to continue meeting remotely, the Board must declare every 30 days that:

1. The legislative body has reconsidered the circumstances of the state of emergency; and

2. Either the state of emergency continues to directly impact the ability of the members to meet safely in person, or State or local officials continue to impose or recommend measures to promote social distancing.

Emergency conditions persist in Santa Clara County and throughout the state. The Governor’s State of Emergency, declared on March 4, 2020, is ongoing. The local proclamation of emergency, made by the Santa Clara County Board of Supervisors on February 10, 2020 ratifying the Santa Clara County Health Officer’s declaration of a AGENDA ITEM #4.D

2 local health emergency due to COVID-19, continues to exist until its termination is proclaimed by the Santa Clara County Board of Supervisors. On March 19, 2020, the Council proclaimed a local emergency due to the COVID-19 pandemic and has continued to confirm the existence of a local emergency.

Due to the continued threat of COVID-19, the Council continues to implement multiple layers of protection against COVID-19, including physical distancing, for the safety of employees and members of the public. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (“CDC”) continues to recommend physical distancing of at least six (6) feet from others outside of the household. Because of the rise in cases due to the Delta variant of COVID19, the Council is concerned about the health and safety of all individuals who intend to attend meetings of the Town’s legislative bodies, including City Council and advisory body and committee meetings. The ongoing state of emergency related to COVID-19, as declared by the Governor, the County Board of Supervisors, and Council, continues to directly impact the ability of members of the legislative bodies of the Council to meet safely in person, due to imminent risks to the health and safety of attendees if the meetings are held in person.

DISCUSSION:

It is recommended that the Council, on behalf of itself and its committees, make a motion, pursuant to the authority set forth in AB 361 (Government Code Section 54953[e][1]), to re-authorize remote teleconference meetings of all legislative bodies of the Council, including all associated advisory bodies, agencies, authorities, and committees, due to the ongoing state of emergency and imminent risks to the health and safety of attendees if the meetings are held in person.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no additional fiscal impact to continue remote teleconference meetings.

TOWN OF LOS ALTOS HILLS January 20, 2022
Staff Report to the City Council
SUBJECT: RESOLUTION APPROVING A POLICY FOR THE TOWN OF LOS ALTOS

HILLS REGARDING ORGANIC WASTE PRODUCT PROCUREMENT
FROM: Cody Einfalt, Management Analyst
APPROVED: Peter Pirnejad, City Manager
RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council should:

Review and consider adopting the proposed policy for organic waste product procurement in Town.

BACKGROUND:

On November 3, 2020, Senate Bill 1383 was approved which established statewide methane emission reduction targets in an effort to reduce emissions of short-lived climate pollutants in various sectors of California’s economy. Included in the regulation are statewide goals to reduce the disposal of organic waste (food scraps, yard debris, paper products) and recover edible food for human consumption.

To accomplish these statewide goals, SB 1383 regulations include prescriptive requirements for local jurisdictions related to recycling, organics collection, inspection, enforcement policies, programs, and edible food recovery. All jurisdictions in the State must comply with SB 1383 requirements with enforcement actions commencing by January 1, 2024.

Due to the Town’s lack of industrial or commercial zones, many of the requirements of SB 1383 are not currently applicable within Los Altos Hills However, one non-exempt requirement is for the Town to adopt an Organic Waste Product Procurement Policy.

Attached to this staff report (Attachment #2) is the proposed Procurement Policy for Los Altos Hills. The purpose of the policy is to incorporate environmental considerations including recycledcontent and recovered organic waste product use into purchasing practices and procurement for the jurisdiction.

DISCUSSION:

The proposed policy was modeled after a template provided to all jurisdictions in the State by CalRecycle. The policy has been modified to meet the specific conditions in Los Altos Hills. The policy has been reviewed by the Town’s Attorney and the Town’s solid waste hauler, GreenWaste Recovery, Inc.

Below is an overview of the proposed policy broken down by section:

Section: Notes:

1. Purpose The Policy will help the Town:
- Protect and conserve natural resources, water, and energy - Minimize the Town’s contribution to climate change,
pollution, and solid waste disposal
- Comply with state requirements of SB 1383

2. Definitions Explanation of definitions used in the Policy

3. Recovered Organic
Waste Product
Procurement
Explains the annual organic waste procurement target for the Town - The target is based off the Town’s population and is set annually by the state.

Lists the requirements of the Town’s Departments and direct service providers (such as landscapers or waste haulers) - Must procure SB 1383 compliant compost and mulch for all landscaping maintenance, renovation, or construction.
- Have Town staff keep records of the purchases

4. Recycled-Content
Paper Procurement
Lists the requirements for the Town’s Departments and vendors - Must purchase recycled-paper products that consist of at least 30% postconsumer fiber
- Have Town staff keep records of the purchases

5. Recordkeeping
Responsibilities
Designated the City Manager or his/her designee to keep records of compliance to policy

6. Effective Date of
Policy
The policy would become effective immediately upon its adoption.

ANALYSIS:

The Town is already procuring most of its products in way that is compliant with the proposed policy. For example, per the Town’s solid waste franchise agreement, GreenWaste Recovery has been delivering eligible compost and mulch for Town residents that meet the definitions specified in the proposed policy. Further, Town Hall is currently purchasing office paper which consists of at least 30% postconsumer fiber. The last step to reach compliance for these two examples is for a member of Town staff to organize records of these products and track the progress towards the annual target set by the state.

Staff Report to City Council Page 3
Organic Waste Product Procurement Policy
January 20, 2022
Most of the remaining changes to the Town’s procurement practices to become complaint with the proposed policy will be validating that all of the Town’s vendors are using eligible paper products and complaint compost/mulch in their services.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There may be some minor fiscal impact associated with the proposed policy. The primary cost would be in validating that the Town is procuring eligible organic and recycled material with its vendors. Eligible material may be more expensive on a case-by-case bases. Additional costs will be occurred through staff time spent on tracking these products. The estimated impact may be four to six thousand dollars annually.

1 (B) The amount of putrescible wastes is calculated on a monthly basis based on 2 the number of operating days.
3 (4) The only separation that may occur at the recycling center is the sorting of 4 materials that have been separated for reuse prior to receipt. 5 (5) The recycling center may include an adjustment in the calculation to include the 6 weight of water in the residual, when the use of water is essential to the sorting or 7 processing of the material, provided that such an adjustment is also made in the 8 weight of materials received for processing.
9 (6) The following materials shall not be included in calculating residual as set forth in 10 subdivision (d)(2) of this section, if the recycling activities are separated from the 11 material handling activities noted below by a defined physical barrier or where the 12 activities are otherwise separated in a manner that the EA determines will keep the 13 materials from being commingled:
14 (A) materials received at an on-site Buy Back Center; 15 (B) materials received at an on-site Drop-off Center; 16 (C) cannery waste;
17 (D) construction and demolition materials;
18 (E) nonhazardous contaminated soil;
19 (F) grease-trap pumpings;
20 (G) nonhazardous asbestos;
21 (H) nonhazardous ash;
22 (I) compost and compost feedstock;
23 (J) sewage sludge;
24 (K) tires.
25 (7) If the EA has information that material that is being received is not separated for 26 reuse or source separated, that the residual is 10% or more of the total per month, or 27 that the amount of putrescible wastes is 1% or more of the total per month, the 28 burden of proof shall be on the owner or operator to demonstrate otherwise. 29 (A) A business that accepts loads of material that are not separated for reuse or 30 source separated does not qualify as a recycling center. 31 (B) If the EA has reason to believe that a business is accepting material that is not 32 separated for reuse or source separated due to averaging or combining of those 33 loads with other loads of separated for reuse material, the burden of proof will be 34 on the business to demonstrate that it is not accepting loads of mixed solid waste. 35 (C) If the EA has reason to believe that a business is accepting material that is not 36 separated for reuse or source separated due to the separation of portions of the 37 material at consecutive sites, each of which removes less than 10% residual, the 38 burden of proof will be on the business to demonstrate that it is not accepting 39 loads of mixed solid waste.
40 (D) If the EA determines that a business has exhibited a pattern and practice of 41 failing to comply with the provisions of this subsection, the EA may issue a Notice 42 and Order requiring the business to obtain a Registration Permit or Full Permit or 43 comply with the Enforcement Agency Notification requirements as made 44 applicable in sections 17403 through 17403.7 of this Article. 45 (E) At the time that the EA requires a recycling center to provide evidence that it is 46 in compliance with this subdivision, the EA shall provide the recycling center with a

1 written description of the information that has caused the EA to believe that the 2 recycling center is not in compliance. Nothing in this requirement is intended to 3 require the EA to identify the name or other identifying information regarding any 4 individual(s) who have complained about the recycling center. 5 (F) Nothing in this section precludes the enforcement agency or the board 6 Department from the following: inspecting a business to verify that it is conducted 7 in a manner that meets the provisions of this subsection; or, from taking any 8 appropriate enforcement action, including the use of a Notice and Order as 9 provided in Section 18304.
10 (8) Operations which do not meet the 10% residual percentage in subdivision (d)(2) 11 of this section but which qualify as a Limited Volume Transfer Operation, shall 12 comply with the requirements of section 17403.3 within one month of March 5, 1999. 13 (9) recycling center operators may voluntarily report their residual percentage to the 14 EA and the CIWMB Department using form CIWMB 607 (located in Appendix A). 15 (10) If the EA determines that a person or business entity purporting to operate a 16 recycling center is not in compliance with this subsection and issues an enforcement 17 order, that person or business entity may appeal that order in accordance with Public 18 Resources Code section 44307.
19 (e) If a Chipping and Grinding Operation or Facility, as defined in section 17852(a)(10) 20 of this Division, handles material that fails to meet the definition of green material due to 21 contamination as set forth in section 17852(a)(21) of this Division, the operation or 22 facility shall not be considered to be a recycling center as set forth in subsections (c) or 23 (d) of section 17402.5
