WHEREAS, Burrtec Waste Industries, Inc. (“Burrtec”) provides refuse, recycling, and organic waste collection, procession and disposal, street sweeping, and right-of-way clean up services to the City of San Bernardino (“City”) pursuant to an exclusive franchise agreement with the City (“Agreement”); and
WHEREAS, Burrtec is required to provide such solid waste services (“Services”) as set forth in the Agreement; and
WHEREAS, since the approval of the Agreement, California law changed to now require the City to implement additional solid waste diversion programs; and WHEREAS, Burrtec will continue to provide Services that comply with regulations to implement SB 1383 (Chapter 395, Statutes of 2016) (“SB 1383 Regulations”) to the City; and WHEREAS, the rate structure for solid waste, recycling, and organics (including green waste and food waste) collection is based on the container size, type of materials accepted in the containers, and frequency of collection; and
WHEREAS, the terms of the Agreement provide a methodology for adjustments to the Maximum Permitted Services Rates, including Consumer Price Index (CPI); and, WHEREAS, the City has determined that it is necessary to impose new, increased or modified rates for its solid waste service charges (collectively herein, the “Charges”); and WHEREAS, the amount of the Charges will not exceed the proportional cost of the service attributable to each parcel upon which they are proposed for imposition; and WHEREAS, the Charges will not be imposed on a parcel unless the services are actually used by, or immediately available to, the owner or tenant of the parcel; and WHEREAS, California Constitution article XIII D, section 6 (“Article XIII D”) requires that prior to imposing any increase to the Charges, the City shall provide written notice (the “Notice”) by mail of: (1) the proposed increases to such Charges to the record owner of each parcel upon which the Charges are proposed for imposition and any tenant directly liable for payment of the Charges; (2) the amount of the Charges proposed to be imposed on each Resolution No. 2025-310

parcel; (3) the basis upon which the Charges were calculated; (4) the reason for the Charges; and (5) the date, time, and location of a public hearing (the “Hearing”) on the proposed Charges; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to Article XIII D such Notice is required to be provided to the affected property owners and any tenant directly liable for the payment of the Charges not less than 45 days prior to the Hearing on the proposed Charges; and WHEREAS, the Notice was mailed in accordance with Article XIII D; and WHEREAS, the Hearing was held on this day, July 2, 2025; and WHEREAS, at the Hearing the City Council heard and considered all oral testimony, written materials, and written protests concerning the establishment and imposition of the proposed Charges, and at the close of the Hearing the City did not receive written protests against the establishment and imposition of the proposed rate increases for the Charges from a majority of the affected property owners upon which the Charges are proposed for imposition or any tenants directly liable for the payment of the Charges; and WHEREAS, the City Council now desires to establish and impose the proposed Charges.
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. That the foregoing Recitals are true and correct and are incorporated herein by this reference.
SECTION 2. The City Council hereby approves the maximum Charges, effective July 2, 2025, for solid waste service at the maximum rates as set forth in Exhibit A, attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference.
SECTION 3. The City Council hereby adopts annual automatic adjustments for the then- current maximum Charges effective July 1, 2026, and each July 1 thereafter, through and including July 1, 2030, without further public hearings. Pursuant to such authority, the City shall be authorized annually to increases the maximum Charges by the 12-month annual average percentage change for the most recent calendar year, compared to the prior calendar year, in the All Urbans Consumer Index (CPI- U), Not Seasonally Adjusted, All Items, Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA, as published by the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Statistics, provided the City shall not increase the Charges by more than five percent (5%) in any calendar year, and in no event shall any such annual automatic adjustment cause the maximum Charges to exceed the cost of providing the Services. Prior to implementing any increase in the maximum Charges as a result of the annual automatic adjustment, the City shall provide written notice of the rate increase at least thirty (30) days in advance of the effective date.
SECTION 4. To the extent any Charges established by this Resolution are inconsistent with any Charges previously adopted by the City Council, it is the explicit intention of the City Council that the Charges adopted pursuant to this Resolution shall prevail.

SECTION 5. This Resolution is not subject to the requirements of California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”). The approval of this Resolution is not a “project” within the meaning of Section 15378 of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations (“State CEQA Guidelines”) because it has no potential for resulting in direct or indirect physical change in the environment. The Charges are exempt from CEQA pursuant to California Public Resources Code section 21080(b)(8) and State CEQA Guidelines section 15273(a) because such charges are necessary and reasonable to fund the administration, operation, maintenance, and improvements of the solid waste collection system. The documents and materials that constitute the record of proceedings on which these findings have been based are located at 215 North “D” Street, San Bernardino, CA 92401. The custodian for these records is the City Clerk of the City.
SECTION 6. If any section, subsection, subdivision, sentence, clause, or phrase in this Resolution or any part thereof is for any reason held to be unconstitutional, invalid, or ineffective by any court of competent jurisdiction, such decision shall not affect the validity or effectiveness of the remaining portions of this Resolution or any part thereof. The City Council hereby declares that it would have adopted each section irrespective of the fact that any one or more subsections, subdivisions, sentences, clauses, or phrases be declared unconstitutional, invalid, or ineffective.
SECTION 7. This Resolution shall take effect immediately upon adoption SECTION 8. The City Clerk shall attest and certify to the passage and adoption thereof.
APPROVED and ADOPTED by the City Council and signed by the Mayor and attested by the City Clerk this 2nd day of July, 2025.
