A lapse of service by any employee for a period of time longer than thirty (30) days by reason of resignation or discharge eliminate s the accumulated length of service time of such employee for the purpose of this MOU. Employees re-entering the service of the City shall be considered as a new employee, except that the employee may and at the discretion of the City, be re -employed within one (1) year and placed in the same salary step in the appropriate compensation range as the employee was at the time of the separation of employment.

SECTION 6 . ADVANCEMENT WITHIN SALARY RANGES. The following regula tions shall govern salary advancement:

A. Merit Advancement. An employee shall be considered for advancement through the salary range yearly upon the employee’s appointment date. To receive the merit increase, an employee must demonstrate meritorious and efficient service, and continued improvement by the employee in the effective performance of the employee’s duties. A me rit increase shall become effective on the first day of the pay period following the employee’s appointment date, unless a later date is specifically determined by the Police Chief, or a duly authorized designee.

The Human Resources Director may, on the basis of the Police Chief’s recommendation, approve and effect such an advancement.

C. Length Of Service Required When Advancement Is Denied. When an employee is not approved for advancement to the next higher step, the employee shall be reconsidered for such advancement at any subsequent time , but not later than twenty -six (26) pay periods .

SECTION 8. PROMOTIONAL SALARY ADVANCEMENT. When an employee is promoted to a position in a higher classification, the employee may be assigned to Step A in the appropriate range for the higher classification; provided that if such employee is already being paid at the rate equal to or higher than Step A, the employee may be placed in the step in that appropriate salary range as will grant the employee an increase of at least five percent (5.0%), but no more than fifteen percent (15.0%), at the discretion of the Police Chief and Human Resources Director, but not to exceed the top of the salary range.

SECTION 9. DEMOTION. When an employee is demoted for disciplinary reasons to a position in a lower classification, the new salary rate shall be assigned to a step in the new salary range for the lower classification that produces at least a five percent (5.0%) base salary reduction.

SECTION 10. REASSIGNMENT OF COMPENSATION RANGES . Any employee in a classification which is reassigned to a different pay range from that previously assigned shall be retained in the same salary step in the new range as the employee has previously held in the prior range, and shall retain credit for length of service in such step toward advancement to the next higher step; provided, however:

A. That if such retention shall result in the advancement of more than one (1) step, the Human Resources Director may, at the time of reassignment, place the employee in a step which will result in an increase of only one (1) step.

B. That if the reassignment shall be to a lower compensation range, Step G of which shall be lower than the existing rate of pay at the time of reassignment, the employee shall continue to be paid at the existing rate of pay until such time as the new classification shall be reassigned to a 417
4 compensation schedule which will allow for further salary advancement, or until such time as the employee is promoted to a position assigned to a higher compensation range.

C. That if the reassignment is to a lower compensation range, Step G of which is higher than the existing rate of pay of the employee, the employee shall be placed on that step of the lower compensation range which is equivalent to the employee's existing rate of pay. If there is no equivalent rate of pay, the employee shall be placed on the next highest step. The employee shall retain credit for length of service previously acquired in such step toward advancement to the next higher step.

The employee must file a sick leave payout designation form by the last pay period of each calendar year in order to receive the sixteen (16) hours in either cash or vacation accumulation beginning January 1998 and each subsequent January.

However, no hours will be converted to vacation if said conversion places the employee's vacation bank over the maximum allowable accrual. In this case, all sick leave hours eligible for conversion will instead automatically be converted to cash.

GRIEVANCE PROCEDURE

SECTION 1. DEFINITION OF GRIEVANCE. A grievance shall be defined as a complaint by a current employee or group of current employees or the Association concerning the interpretation or application of specific provisions of this MOU, or of the Rules and Regulations governing personnel practices or working conditions of the City. No employee shall suffer any reprisal because of filing or processing of a grievance or participating in the Grievance Procedure. 446
33 SECTION 2. TIME LIMIT FOR FILING WRITTEN FORMAL GRIEVANCES . The time limits for filing written formal grievances shall be strictly construed, but may be extended by mutual agreement evidenced, in writing, and signed by a duly authorized designee of the City and of the grieving party.

Failure of the grieving party to knowingly fail to comply with any of the time limits set forth herein shall bar further processing of the grievance. Failure of the City to comply with the time limits set forth in this Article shall automatically move the grievance to the next level in the Grievance Procedure. The grieving party may request the assistance of the Association in presenting a grievance at any level of review or may represent them self. Grievances shall be presented on City time.

SECTION 3. INFORMAL PROCESS. An employee must first attempt to resolve the grievance on an informal basis by discussion with an immediate supervisor without undue delay, or in no case, more than fifteen (15) calendar days of discovery of the act or omission giving rise to the grievance.

Every effort shall be made to find an acceptable solution to the grievance by these informal means at the most immediate level of supervision. At no time may the informal process go beyond the Police Chief. In order that this informal procedure may be responsive, all parties involved shall expedite this process. When, within fifteen (15) calendar days, a mutually acceptable solution has not been reached at the informal level, the employee shall submit the grievance in writing, on a Grievance form, to be mutually agreed to by the City and the Association, to the Police Chief. The grievant is to state the remedy requested to resolve the grievance. At this point, the grievance hearing process becomes formal. Should the grievant fail to file a written grievance within fifteen (15) calendar days, as outlined under Section 4, the grievance shall be barred and waived.

SECTION 4. FORMAL PROCESS, HUMAN RESOURCES DIRECTOR, POLICE CHIEF. If the grievance is not resolved through the informal process, and a written grievance is filed within the time limits set forth above, the grievant shall discuss the grievance with the Human Resources Director and the Police Chief . The Human Resources Director and the Police Chief shall render a decision and comments, in writing, regarding the merits of the grievance and return them to the grievant within fifteen (15) calendar days after receiving the grievance.

SECTION 5. FORMAL PROCESS, CITY MANAGER. If the grievance is not resolved in Section 4 above, or if no answer has been received from the Human Resources Director and Police Chief within fifteen (15) calendar days from the presentation of the written grievance to the Human Resources Director and the Police Chief, the written grievance shall be presented to the City Manager, or a duly authorized designee, for determination. Failure of the grievant to take this action will constitute a waiver and bar to the grievance, and the grievance will be considered settled on the basis of the last Management grievance response. The City Manager, or a duly authorized designee, shall render a final decision on the merits of the grievance and comments, in writing, and return them to the grievant within fifteen (15) calendar days after receiving the grievance. After this procedure is exhausted, the grievant, the Association, and the City shall have all rights and remedies to pursue said grievance under the law.

ARTICLE XXVII

DISCIPLINARY APPEALS PROCEDURE

Upon the exhaustion of the administrative process in Department Policy #1012, an eligible individual 447
34 may request a full and fair evidentiary appeal hearing conducted by a Hearing Officer. This request must be in writing and addressed to the Police Chief and received within seven (7) days of the effective date of discipline. Failure to timely file an appeal shall be deemed a waiver of any further hearing or appeal, except as provided by law.

If the parties cannot mutually agree on the Hearing Officer, the parties shall procure a list of seven (7) qualified Hearing Officers from the State Mediation and Conciliation Service . Each party shall alternatively strike one (1) name from the list until only one (1) person remains, who shall be the Hearing Officer. The determination as to which party strikes first shall be made on a random basis.

The Hearing Officer shall determine whether good cause exists for the imposition of discipline and, if so, the appropriate degree of discipline, provided that the Hearing Officer may not impose more severe discipline than that assessed by the Police Depart ment. The decision of the hearing officer is subject to the right of either party to seek judicial review pursuant to Section 1094.5 of the California Code of Civil Procedure. The cost of the Hearing Officer shall be paid by the City.

ARTICLE XXVIII

Portions of a performance evaluation relating to disciplinary action may be deleted solely at the discretion of the Police Chief. The Police Chief reserves the right to retain or purge documents requested by an employee under this section. Copies of any discipline forwarded and retained in the Human Resources Department will remain in the employee's personnel file, however, if the discipline documentation meets the five (5) years criteria, the employee may request to have the purged documents placed in a sealed envelope within the personnel file.

1. SUBJECT
Establish lobbyist registration fee pursuant to Ordinance No. 14-23. Resolution No. 11517.

2. SUMMARY
On October 10, 2023, and November 28, 2023, the Orange City Council considered the first reading of Ordinance No. 14-23 which sought to create a lobbyist registration and reporting process. Included in the adopted ordinance is a registration and fee requirement for qualified lobbyist. This proposed resolution adopts the lobbyist registration fee cited in Ordinance No. 14-23, Section 2.13.030.

3. RECOMMENDED ACTION
Adopt Resolution No. 11517. A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Orange Amending the Master Schedule of Fees and Charges for various services and lobbyist registration.

4. FISCAL IMPACT
None.

5. STRATEGIC PLAN GOALS
Goal 4: Provide Outstanding Public Services
d. Foster an environment of leadership, teamwork, and innovation.

6. DISCUSSION AND BACKGROUND
On October 10, 2023, the Orange City Council first considered the introduction of Ordinance No. 14- 23, creating the regulatory framework and requirements for lobbyist registration and reporting. At the same meeting, the Orange City Council expressed concerns with select ordinance provisions and created a City Council Ad-Hoc Committee with the intent of revising the draft ordinance for future City Council discussion. At the November 28, 2023, City Council meeting, the Ad-Hoc Committee’s revised ordinance was reviewed and approved for First Reading by the Orange City Council with the second reading and adoption occurring on December 12, 2023.

Included in the newly adopted ordinance is Section 2.13.030 - Registration and Annual Reporting Required. Under this section, any person/firm engaging in lobbyist activities (as defined in the ordinance) must register with the City Clerk on a per project basis and pay a registration fee to cover the cost to administer the program.

Item #: 7.1. 1/9/2024 File #: 24-0007
The City Clerk’soffice, in collaboration with the Human Resources Department and Payroll Division, has calculated the fully burdened staff rate to be $190. This fee, in part, includes the cost to review the lobbyist registration forms, address any corrections, log the registration forms, and process the renewal forms. This amount represents the staff time (assuming two hours per lobbyist) and salary costs to administer the program only - it will not generate additional revenue for the City. The proposed fee is highlighted and included on page one (under City Clerk) of the Master Schedule of Fees.

Pursuant to California Government Code, unless adopted as an urgency ordinance, once an ordinance is approved upon second reading, the ordinance will go into effect 30 days thereafter. This means that Ordinance No. 14-23 will go into effect on January 12, 2024. By adopting Resolution 11517, the City will have adopted the final regulatory component to fully implement the new lobbyist registration program.

6. DISCUSSION AND BACKGROUND
Introduction
CR&R Inc. (CR&R) has served the solid waste needs of the City since 2009. Pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 40059, the City may provide for the collection and disposal of solid waste either by providing the service itself or by contracting out all or part of the service or by a permit system. The City’s current exclusive Franchise Agreement for solid waste collection with CR&R began on January 1, 2020, and is set to terminate on June 30, 2025. The current contract provides basic solid waste services under a rate schedule that is increasingly difficult for the franchise hauler to sustain economically. High labor costs, expensive equipment and capital requirements, and increasingly stringent and difficult regulatory demands all severely impact the solid waste marketplace in California. While the City of Orange continues to negotiate some of the lowest solid waste rates in the County, we also recognize that our rates have been historically low and that the contract does not provide many of the terms and services that are commonplace in other municipal solid waste contracts. Additionally, rates have not been sufficient to ensure the financial certainty needed for stabilizing rates in the long term and ensuring that the contractor can make long term commitments for labor and equipment needed to provide quality service. These commitments are important to improve and maintain reliable and consistent service. Newer solid waste contracts that have been negotiated in neighboring cities such as Santa Ana, Anaheim, and Tustin have confirmed the difficult economics of our current rate structure and highlighted various services that have not been provided in earlier contracts.

The proposed amended and restated agreement would take effect on February 1, 2024, and would run for ten years from February 1, 2024, to January 31, 2034, with one optional five-year mutually agreed upon extension. Long-term contracts are common for municipal solid waste services due to the high capital cost and the logistics of solid waste service. The proposed initial rate adjustment would be effective February 1st with the next scheduled rate adjustment not taking place until July 1, 2025. The amended and restated agreement includes the following notable terms:
· Indemnification clauses, restated, protecting the City on these State solid waste mandates: AB 341, AB 1826, AB 1594, and SB 1383. This ensures CR&R provides protection for the City avoiding the potential fines of $10,000 per day for noncompliance with SB 1383. · CR&R ensures that the City shall meet the procurement requirements in SB 1383 in the form of compost, mulch, and recycled natural gas for vehicles. · Provides three full-time compliance coordinators tasked with assisting businesses with solid waste compliance of SB 1383 until compliance is reached. · Provides a one-time payment of $6,000,000 for retroactive road mitigation repairs. · Provides annual street pavement mitigation funding of approximately $2,000,000 adjusted by City of Orange Printed on 1/4/2024Page 2 of 6

Item #: 9.1. 1/9/2024 File #: 23-0797
Consumer Price Index (CPI) annually.
· Addition of four solid waste collection events and an additional second compost giveaway annually.
· Expanded edible food recovery services to maintain compliance with SB 1383. · Provides additional bulky item collection opportunities for all residential customers at no extra charge. In addition, commercial customers shall receive an initial amount of bulky item collection at no extra charge. Previously, commercial customers were charged for all bulky item collection services.
· Provides customers with an online platform to accept service requests. · Additional quality assurance measures on CR&R’sequipment and the ability for customers to request a refund for missed service.
· Youth programs focusing on recycling will be offered at public locations such as the City’s libraries.

At the time the current contract was adopted, revisions in California’ssolid waste legislation, SB 1383, were still being finalized. This Franchise Agreement ensures that the City remains compliant with this unfunded State mandate. There are currently four mandates that are not funded by the State, so costs must continue to be funded through solid waste rates charged to residential and business customers. They are as follows:
· AB 341: Mandatory Commercial Recycling (AB 341)
· AB 1826: Mandatory Commercial Organics Recycling (AB 1826) · AB 1594: Green Material Used as Alternative Daily Cover (AB 1594) · SB 1383: Short-Lived Climate Pollutants: Organics Waste Methane Emissions Reductions (SB 1383)
The current contract also does not provide for many of the additional services that are commonplace in most solid waste contracts in our neighboring cities. Under the amended and restated contract, expanded services include more frequent access to large item disposal for residential, multi-family, and commercial customers to reduce dumping to keep up with demand and improve cleanliness of our public spaces.

The proposed amended and restated contract also includes support for infrastructure damage caused by solid waste trucks. Utilizing methodology (see attached memo) to determine the level of pavement deterioration caused by solid waste trucks, an impact cost was established to reimburse the City for costs related to pavement damage. Under the proposed amended and restated contract, CR&R would provide a one-time payment of $6.0 million towards retroactive pavement damage and would also provide an on-going annual payment of approximately $2.0 million towards mitigating on- going damage. The annual payment would then be adjusted by the CPI annually.

Solid Waste Rates
The amended and restated Franchise Agreement includes proposed rates that will remain at the median or below, comparable northern Orange County solid waste rates and are guaranteed City of Orange Printed on 1/4/2024Page 3 of 6

Item #: 9.1. 1/9/2024 File #: 23-0797
median or below, comparable northern Orange County solid waste rates and are guaranteed effective from the term of the Franchise Agreement. These cities include Anaheim, Brea, Fullerton, Garden Grove, Irvine, Placentia, Santa Ana, Tustin, Villa Park, and Yorba Linda. This guarantee remains effective for the life of the Franchise Agreement. The following are lists of those cities’rates for residential (3-cart system) and commercial (3-yd bin serviced once per week):

City Residential Rate City Commercial Rate
Irvine $17.87 Orange (Current) $93.63
Tustin $19.06 Irvine $140.47
Orange (Current) $20.56 Tustin $150.74
Orange (Proposed) $24.93 Brea $176.81
Santa Ana $24.94 Orange (Proposed) $183.69
Brea $25.28 Villa Park $183.70
Fullerton $26.29 Yorba Linda $189.55
Garden Grove $27.29 Santa Ana $203.49
Anaheim $27.78 Anaheim $206.17
Yorba Linda $31.35 Garden Grove $206.98
Villa Park $37.47 Placentia $210.19
Placentia $37.85 Fullerton $212.12
The amended and restated Franchise Agreement ensures city residents and businesses are compliant with State Law by expanding and enhancing required services. As the State will not assist in funding these services, the waste rates must be adjusted to facilitate the funding of those services.

In the amended and restated Franchise Agreement, single-family and multi-family dwellings with cart service will continue to be charged a base rate, which includes a refuse cart, a recycling cart, and an organics waste cart. Customers may continue to choose to take additional carts for an additional surcharge or select a reduced cart size with a reduced rate. Commercial customers and multi-family dwellings with bin service are charged a monthly rate based on the number and size of bins, and the number of weekly pickups.

The amended and restated Franchise Agreement includes a clearly defined formula for adjusting the rates for inflation in labor, fuel, vehicle, insurance, and other operating costs, as well as adopted increases in the wholesale cost of disposal. Each rate adjustment includes an annual CPI adjustment represented over a twelve-month period. If approved, the initial rates will go into effect on February 1, 2024. The residential and commercial rates will be automatically adjusted each year on July 1, starting on July 1, 2025, over a period not to exceed five years based on the defined formula pursuant to Section 53756 of the Government Code.

Commercial Rates-Phased in Option
As an alternative option to the proposed commercial rates, a phased-in approach may be taken.

Rather than a single year adjustment, the commercial rates would be adjusted over two years. The first adjustment on February 1, 2024, would be 50% of the proposed single year adjustment with the remaining 50% being implemented on the second adjustment on July 1, 2025. In this alternate adjustment methodology, the commercial rates would remain the lowest of the northern nearby cities in the first adjustment but then on the second adjustment, commercial rates would be near the City of Orange Printed on 1/4/2024Page 4 of 6

Item #: 9.1. 1/9/2024 File #: 23-0797
in the first adjustment but then on the second adjustment, commercial rates would be near the median. The table below highlights the proposed adjustments. Note that the rate for the second adjustment does not include the future CPI adjustment.

City Commercial Rate
Orange (Current) $93.63
Orange (Proposed-Year 1) $138.66
Irvine $140.47
Tustin $150.74
Brea $176.81
Orange (Proposed-Year 2) $183.69
Villa Park $183.70
Yorba Linda $189.55
Santa Ana $203.49
Anaheim $206.17
Garden Grove $206.98
Placentia $210.19
Fullerton $212.12
Should the two-year phase in for commercial rates be implemented, there will also be a two-year phase in of the retroactive road mitigation payment of $3.0M per year. The annual road mitigation payment will also drop to $1.0M in the first year, and then increase to the projected $2.0M per year for the remaining term of the contract.

Enhanced Quality Control
As part of the amended and restated Franchise Agreement, the City wanted to ensure that there would be enhanced quality control measures in place to improve solid waste services in Orange. The contract provides for the assessment of liquidated damages if service is not provided in accordance with the contract. Liquidated damages can be a mechanism used by the City to penalize CR&R. In prior contracts, multiple occurrences were required before liquidated damages could be assessed.

The amended and restated contract reduced the liquidated damages frequency to a single occurrence. Additionally, we have provided more specificity as to how services are to be delivered with the understanding that liquidated damages can be assessed for single instances such as missing a pick-up, failing to start sweeping during no parking periods, driving too fast, or other service delivery failures. There are also provisions in the contract to allow customers to request refunds should there be a lack of service from CR&R as the residents and businesses are paying directly for these services.

Recently, new sweeping equipment has been used within the City and with such an upgrade, cleaning and route efficiency have improved. The new economics of this contract will allow for further replacement of solid waste equipment and improved vehicle maintenance for the length of the Franchise Agreement. With new services required by the State, alternatively configured solid waste vehicles are needed for new routes. There are also additional quality control provisions that accompany the contract. For example, there will be vehicle inspections by a third-party to assist with ensuring vehicle safety and reducing the risk of potential leaks. All vehicles, both sweeping and solid City of Orange Printed on 1/4/2024Page 5 of 6

Item #: 9.1. 1/9/2024 File #: 23-0797
ensuring vehicle safety and reducing the risk of potential leaks. All vehicles, both sweeping and solid waste, shall be equipped with fluid monitoring systems. This monitoring system would alert the driver immediately should a hydraulic or oil leak occur. A concurrent alert will also be sent to the operations manager to reduce the response time on cleanup efforts and to the Fleet Manager so a repair crew can be dispatched. This should minimize the impact of unforeseen leaks, should one occur, and mitigate route delays.

Conclusion
Upon approval of the amended and restated Franchise Agreement, CR&R will proceed with the enhanced civic programs and expanded support of city programs and services on February 1, 2024.

There is planned outreach and education to accompany the finalization of the Franchise Agreement.

This amended and restated Franchise Agreement will ensure stability and quality assurance for both residences and businesses for the next decade while also maintaining the City’scompliance with the State’s unfunded mandates.

7. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The California Environmental Quality Act, contained at Section 21000, et. seq. of the California Public Resources Code (“CEQA”)requires analysis of agency approvals of discretionary “projects.”A “project,”under CEQA, is defined as “the whole of an action, which has a potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment.” Approval of the amended and restated Integrated Solid Waste Management and Street Sweeping Agreement (“Agreement”)is exempt from CEQA for the following reasons: (i) Section 15061(b)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines (Common Sense Exemption) because it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the continuation of the services provided for in the Agreement would have a significant effect on the environment; and (ii) Section 15308 of the State CEQA Guidelines (Class 8 Exemption) because continuation of the services provided for in the Agreement contains several regulatory mandates for complying with state law regarding the disposal of solid waste in a manner that ensures the protection of the environment. For these reasons, no further CEQA documentation is required.

in the first adjustment but then on the second adjustment, commercial rates would be near the median. The table below highlights the proposed adjustments. Note that the rate for the second adjustment does not include the future CPI adjustment.

City Commercial Rate
Orange (Current) $93.63
Orange (Proposed-Year 1) $138.66
Irvine $140.47
Tustin $150.74
Brea $176.81
Orange (Proposed-Year 2) $183.69
Villa Park $183.70
Yorba Linda $189.55
Santa Ana $203.49
Anaheim $206.17
Garden Grove $206.98
Placentia $210.19
Fullerton $212.12
Should the two-year phase in for commercial rates be implemented, there will also be a two-year phase in of the retroactive road mitigation payment of $3.0M per year. The annual road mitigation payment will also drop to $1.0M in the first year, and then increase to the projected $2.0M per year for the remaining term of the contract.

Enhanced Quality Control
As part of the amended and restated Franchise Agreement, the City wanted to ensure that there would be enhanced quality control measures in place to improve solid waste services in Orange. The contract provides for the assessment of liquidated damages if service is not provided in accordance with the contract. Liquidated damages can be a mechanism used by the City to penalize CR&R. In prior contracts, multiple occurrences were required before liquidated damages could be assessed.

The amended and restated contract reduced the liquidated damages frequency to a single occurrence. Additionally, we have provided more specificity as to how services are to be delivered with the understanding that liquidated damages can be assessed for single instances such as missing a pick-up, failing to start sweeping during no parking periods, driving too fast, or other service delivery failures. There are also provisions in the contract to allow customers to request refunds should there be a lack of service from CR&R as the residents and businesses are paying directly for these services.

Recently, new sweeping equipment has been used within the City and with such an upgrade, cleaning and route efficiency have improved. The new economics of this contract will allow for further replacement of solid waste equipment and improved vehicle maintenance for the length of the Franchise Agreement. With new services required by the State, alternatively configured solid waste vehicles are needed for new routes. There are also additional quality control provisions that accompany the contract. For example, there will be vehicle inspections by a third-party to assist with ensuring vehicle safety and reducing the risk of potential leaks. All vehicles, both sweeping and solid City of Orange Printed on 1/4/2024Page 5 of 6

ensuring vehicle safety and reducing the risk of potential leaks. All vehicles, both sweeping and solid waste, shall be equipped with fluid monitoring systems. This monitoring system would alert the driver immediately should a hydraulic or oil leak occur. A concurrent alert will also be sent to the operations manager to reduce the response time on cleanup efforts and to the Fleet Manager so a repair crew can be dispatched. This should minimize the impact of unforeseen leaks, should one occur, and mitigate route delays.

Conclusion
Upon approval of the amended and restated Franchise Agreement, CR&R will proceed with the enhanced civic programs and expanded support of city programs and services on February 1, 2024.

There is planned outreach and education to accompany the finalization of the Franchise Agreement.

This amended and restated Franchise Agreement will ensure stability and quality assurance for both residences and businesses for the next decade while also maintaining the City’scompliance with the State’s unfunded mandates.

7. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The California Environmental Quality Act, contained at Section 21000, et. seq. of the California Public Resources Code (“CEQA”)requires analysis of agency approvals of discretionary “projects.”A “project,”under CEQA, is defined as “the whole of an action, which has a potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment.” Approval of the amended and restated Integrated Solid Waste Management and Street Sweeping Agreement (“Agreement”)is exempt from CEQA for the following reasons: (i) Section 15061(b)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines (Common Sense Exemption) because it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the continuation of the services provided for in the Agreement would have a significant effect on the environment; and (ii) Section 15308 of the State CEQA Guidelines (Class 8 Exemption) because continuation of the services provided for in the Agreement contains several regulatory mandates for complying with state law regarding the disposal of solid waste in a manner that ensures the protection of the environment. For these reasons, no further CEQA documentation is required.

RESOLUTION NO. 11518

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF

THE CITY OF ORANGE, CALIFORNIA,

APPROVING AN AMENDED AND RESTATED

INTEGRATED SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT

AND STREET SWEEPING SERVICES

AGREEMENT WITH CR&R INCORPORATED

WHEREAS, the California Legislature, by enactment of the California Integrated Waste Management Act of 1989 (“AB 939”) (California Public Resources Code Section 40000 et seq.), has declared that it is in the public interest to authorize and require local agencies to make adequate provisions for solid waste handling within their jurisdictions; and

WHEREAS, pursuant to the provisions of Public Resources Code Section 40059(a)(1), the City of Orange (“City”) is authorized to determine all aspects of solid waste handling which are of local concern; and

WHEREAS, City is obligated to protect the public health and safety of the residents and businesses of City, and collection of solid waste should be undertaken in a manner consistent with the exercise of City's obligations for the protection of public health and safety; and

WHEREAS, Public Resources Code Section 40059(a)(2) authorizes City to determine whether solid waste handling services are to be provided by exclusive or non -exclusive contract, whether the contract will be awarded with or without competitive bidding , and the terms and conditions of any such contract; and

WHEREAS, pursuant to California Public Resourc es Code Section 49300 and 49500 et seq., City has determined that the public health, safety, and well -being require that an exclusive franchise be awarded to a qualified company for the collection, transfer and transportation, recycling, processing, and disposal of solid waste and other services related to meeting the diversion goals required by AB 939, and other requirements of the California Integ rated Waste Management Act; and

WHEREAS, City and CR&R (“Parties”) entered into Agreement No. 5444, dated July 14, 2009, in which CR&R was granted an exclusive franchise for the collection, transfer and transportation, recycling, processing and disposal of solid waste and other related services in the City effective February 1, 2010, for an initial term of eight years. On September 12, 2017, Agreement No. 5444 was extended for two (2) additional years, through January 31, 2020; and

WHEREAS, based on new laws adopted by the State of California, the Parties entered into Agreement No. 5444A dated December 10, 2019, for both integrated solid waste management and street sweeping services, for an initial term of five and a half (5 ½) years, beginning January 1, 2020 and expiring June 30, 2025, and subject to extensions (“Agreement”); and

533
2 WHEREAS, the Parties now desire to make certain amendments to the Agreement to provide for a new term, rate adjustments, payment of retroactive road mitigation repairs, additional collection events, and other changes; and

WHEREAS, City declares its intention of maintaining reasonable rates and quality service related to the collection, transfer and transportation, recycling, processing, and disposal of soli d waste and other services; and

WHEREAS, Parties continue to be mindful of the provisions of the laws governing the safe collection, transport, recycling, processing and disposal of solid waste, including AB 939, the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (“RCRA”), and the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (“CERCLA”). Parties desire to leave no doubts as to their respective roles and to memorialize that by entering into this Agreement, City is not hereby becoming an "arranger" or a "generator" as those terms are used in CERCLA, and it is CR&R, not City, who is "arranging for" the collection from premises in City, transport for disposal, composting or other processing, and recycling of municipal solid waste which may contain hazardous substances; and further to confirm that as a material induce ment to City entering into this Agreement, CR&R has agreed to fully indemnify City in connection with any claims, losses, liabilities, lawsuits or actions relating to the inadvertent or intentional collection, transpo rtation and/or disposal of hazardous materials that may occur in connection with CR&R’s performance under this Agreement; and

WHEREAS, Parties continue to be mindful of new laws adopted by the State of California intended to divert recyclables and organic materials from being landfilled. AB 341 mandates that commercial waste generators arrange for recycling services. AB 1826 mandates that commercial waste generators recycle their organic waste. AB 1594 will exclude organic material used as Alternative Daily Cover (“ADC”) from the calculation of a jurisdiction’s total per capita amount of waste disposed. SB 1383 allows the Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (“CalRecycle”) to implement new solid waste and recycling regulations on local jurisdictions if significant progress has not been made in certain waste reduction goals by 2020; and

WHEREAS, CR&R represents and warrants to City that it continues to possess the experience, responsibility and qualifications to conduct recycling programs, to provide City with information sufficient to meet City's reporting requirements under AB 939, to assist City in meeting City's other requirements under AB 939, to collect, transport and dispose of solid waste in a safe manner which will minimize the adverse effects of collection vehicles on air quality and traffic and has the ability to indemnify City against liability under CERCLA; and

WHEREAS, CR&R has the ability to provide such personnel, equipment and supplies as are necessary to ensure City complies with the requirements of AB 939 and the Public Resources Code; and

WHEREAS, City's primary goals in amending and restating the Agreement are ensuring that solid waste collection and street sweeping services are of the highest caliber, that customer satisfaction remains at the highest level, that the environment is protected, that maximum diversion levels are achieved, and that materials collected are put to the highest and best use.

534
3 NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED , by the City Council of the City of Orange , as follows:

1. That the foregoing recitals are true and correct.

2. That approval of the amended and restated Integrated Solid Waste Management and Street Sweeping Agreement is exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) for the following reasons: (i) Section 15061(b)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines (Common Sense Exemption) because it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the continuation of the services provided for in the Agreement would have a significant effect on the environment; and (ii) Section 15308 of the State CEQA Guidelines (Class 8 Exemption) because continuation of the services provided for in the Agreement contains several regulatory mandates for complying with state law regarding the disposal of solid waste in a manner that ensures the protection of the environment.

3. That the City Council hereby approves the amended and restated Agreement Between City of Orange and CR&R Incorporated for Integrated Solid Waste Management and Street Sweeping Services, which sets forth all terms and conditions for the provision of solid waste and street sweeping services, a copy of which was submitted to the City Council at its meeting on the date set forth below.

AGREEMENT

This Agreement for Integrated Solid Waste Management and Street Sweeping Services (hereinafter the “ Agreement”) is entered into this ___ day of ________ 2024, by and between the City of Orange, California, a municipal corporation (“City”) and CR&R Incorporated, a California corporation (“Contractor”), for the collection, transportation, recycling, processing, and disposal of solid waste and other services related to meeting the goals and requirements of the California Integrated Waste Management Act.

RECITALS

WHEREAS, the California Legislature, by enactment of the California Integrated Waste Management Act of 1989 (“AB 939”) (California Public Resources Code Section 40000 et seq.), has declared that it is in the public interest to authorize and require local agencies to make adequate provisions for solid waste handling within their jurisdictions; and

WHEREAS, pursuant to the provisions of Public Resources Code Section 40059(a)(1), the City of Orange (“City”) is authorized to determine all aspects of solid waste handling which are of local concern; and

WHEREAS, City is obligated to protect the public health and safety of the residents and businesses of City, and collection of solid waste should be undertaken in a manner consistent with the exercise of City's obligations for the protection of public health and safety; and

WHEREAS, Public Resources Code Section 40059(a)(2) authorizes City to determine whether solid waste handling services are to be provided by exclusive or non -exclusive contract, whether the contract will be awarded with or without competitive bidding, and the terms and conditions of any such contract; and

WHEREAS, pursuant to California Public Resources Code Section 49300 and 49500 et seq., City has determined that the public hea lth, safety, and well -being require that an exclusive franchise be awarded to a qualified company for the collection, transfer and transportation, recycling, processing, and disposal of solid waste and other services related to meeting the diversion goals required by AB 939, and other requirements of the California Integrated Waste Management Act; and

WHEREAS, City and CR&R (“Parties”) entered into Agreement No. 5444, dated July 14, 2009, in which CR&R was granted an exclusive franchise for the collection, transfer and transportation, recycling, processing and disposal of solid waste and other related services in the City effective February 1, 2010, for an initial term of eight years. On September 12, 2017, Agreement No. 5444 was extended for two (2) addit ional years, through January 31, 2020; and

550

2 of 147

WHEREAS, based on new laws adopted by the State of California, the Parties entered into Agreement No. 5444A dated December 10, 2019, for both integrated solid waste management and street sweeping services, for an initial term of five and a half (5 ½) years, beginning January 1, 2020 and expiring June 30, 2025, and subject to extensions (“Agreement”); and

WHEREAS, the Parties now desire to make certain amendments to the Agreement to provide for a new term, rate adjustments, payment of retroactive road mitigation repairs, additional collection events, and other changes; and

WHEREAS, City declares its intention of maintaining reasonable rates and quality service related to the collection, transfer and transportatio n, recycling, processing, and disposal of solid waste and other services; and

WHEREAS, Parties continue to be mindful of the provisions of the laws governing the safe collection, transport, recycling, processing and disposal of solid waste, including AB 939, the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (“RCRA”), and the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (“CERCLA”). Parties desire to leave no doubts as to their respective roles and to memorialize that by entering into this Agreement, City is not hereby becoming an "arranger" or a "generator" as those terms are used in CERCLA, and it is CR&R, not City, who is "arranging for" the collection from premises in City, transport for disposal, composting or other processing, and recyc ling of municipal solid waste which may contain hazardous substances; and further to confirm that as a material inducement to City entering into this Agreement, CR&R has agreed to fully indemnify City in connection with any claims, losses, liabilities, law suits or actions relating to the inadvertent or intentional collection, transportation and/or disposal of hazardous materials that may occur in connection with CR&R’s performance under this Agreement; and

WHEREAS, Parties continue to be mindful of new laws adopted by the State of California intended to divert recyclables and organic materials from being landfilled. AB 341 mandates that commercial waste generators arrange for recycling services. AB 1826 mandates that commercial waste generators recycle their organic waste. AB 1594 will exclude organic material used as Alternative Daily Cover (“ADC”) from the calculation of a jurisdiction’s total per capita amount of waste disposed. SB 1383 allows the Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (“CalRecycle”) to implement new solid waste and recycling regulations on local jurisdictions if significant progress has not been made in certain waste reduction goals by 2020; and

WHEREAS, CR&R represents and warrants to City that it continues to possess the experience, responsibility and qualifications to conduct recycling programs, to provide City with information sufficient to meet City's reporting requirements under AB 939, to assist City 551

in meeting City's other requirements under AB 939, to collect, transport and dispose of solid waste in a safe manner which will minimize the adverse effects of collection vehicles on air quality and traffic and has the ability to indemnify City against liability under CERCLA; and

WHEREAS, CR&R has the ability to prov ide such personnel, equipment and supplies as are necessary to ensure City complies with the requirements of AB 939 and the Public Resources Code; and

WHEREAS, City's primary goals in amending and restating the Agreement are ensuring that solid waste coll ection and street sweeping services are of the highest caliber, that customer satisfaction remains at the highest level, that the environment is protected, that maximum diversion levels are achieved, and that materials collected are put to the highest and best use.

Table 2 – Example Calculation to Labor Components

Contract Date 10/01/23 10/01/24
Hourly Rate $23.40 $24.15
Rate Adjustment Date n/a 7/01/20
Change to Labor Component n/ a 3.2%

Table 2 shows an example calculation of the labor component. Comparable rates from subsequent labor agreements will similarly apply. If a subsequent labor contract has not been executed prior to a rate adjustment calculation, the percentage change in the labor cost component used in the prior year's adjustment calculation will be used. In the event that the estimated labor component change i s higher or lower than the actual change after a new labor contract is executed, no compensation adjustment shall be provided for prior periods.

7.4.2 Rate Adjustment Steps

All rates will be adjusted using the same methodology described below. Residential and Commercial rates shall be adjusted using the corresponding cost component weightings from Section 7.4.1.

a) Step One - Calculate the percentage increase or decrease in each index listed in Section 7.4.1 . The increase or decrease in the published indices for fuel, equipment insurance and all other (CPI) will be for the change in the average annual published index between the calendar year ended the December prior to the Rate Year anniversary date and prior calendar year.

b) Step Two - The first set of rate adjustment cost components as a percentage of total costs are provided in Section 7.4.1 above, to be used for the rate adjustment effective July 1, 2025, with subsequent components calculated in Step F ive of the rate adjustment. For Step Two of each subsequent rate adjustment, use the cost components recalculated in Step F ive during the previous rate adjustment. Multiply the percentage changes for each rate adjustment component by that component's weighting and add these resulting percentages together to derive the Inflation Adjustment Percentage.
