2.2 Consider approval of the 2024 proposed maximum rates collected by Marin Sanitary Service for solid waste, recycling and organic waste services. Adoption of the attached resolution increasing MSS customer rates is not a “project” under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), because it does not involve an activity which has the potential to cause a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment. (Cal. Pub. Res. Code § 21065). Moreover, the Town Council finds that even if it were considered a project, adoption of the resolution is exempt from the CEQA under CEQA Guidelines section Staff Report (DOC)
