Request for Council Action
Date: August 19, 2026
To: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
From: Eric Levitt, City Manager
Department: City Manager's Office
Subject: Reappointment of General Plan Advisory Committee Members (Wards 3, 5, 6)
Recommendation:

It is recommended that the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino, California, approve the reappointment of the following General Plan Advisory Committee Members:

1. Angela M. Torres as a voting member for Ward 3.

2. Anthony Aguirre as an alternate member for Ward 3.

3. Richard Kaplan as a voting member for Ward 5.

4. Raafi A. Bell as a voting member for Ward 6.

City Manager's Comments
I have been working with the Community Development Department to schedule a GPAC meeting either the last week of August or first week of September. The intent is to have the General Plan go to the Planning Commission in October.

Executive Summary
The General Plan Advisory Committee (GPAC) is comprised of a total of sixteen (16) members and was established by the Mayor and City Council to assist with updating the City’s comprehensive General Plan. Currently, the committee has five (5) vacancies and four (4) members with expired terms, which poses a challenge for meeting quorum requirements under the Brown Act. With the City’s General Plan anticipated to be brought before the Planning Commission this fall, it is recommended that the Mayor and Council reappoint the four (4) GPAC members whose term expired in December 2024. This will allow the GPAC to meet prior to the Planning Commission so that they can continue to provide their feedback and recommendations on the City’s General Plan.

Packet Page. 30
Background
The General Plan Advisory Committee was established by Resolution No. 2021-02 on January 20, 2021, which was later updated by Resolution 2021-154 on June 16, 2021.

The purpose of the GPAC is to actively participate in, and engage community members about, the specific focus areas and elements under consideration for inclusion in the General Plan. The GPAC provide recommendations to City staff and the consulting team in this capacity, and they provide one of the primary means of communication for the community when making recommendations about the General Plan to the Planning Commission and the Mayor and City Council.

The GPAC is comprised of a total of 16 members. Each City Council member appoints two (2) members, with one (1) appointment being a voting member and the other appointment being an alternate. The Mayor also appoints two members, with one (1) serving as a voting member and the other as an alternate.

Discussion
With the General Plan anticipated to be brought before the Planning Commission this fall, it is important for the GPAC to meet prior to time so that the committee can provide their feedback and recommendations. Currently, the GPAC has five (5) vacancies and four (4) members with expired terms, which poses a challenge for meeting quorum under the Brown Act. In order to help ensure that the GPAC can meet quorum, it is recommended for the four (4) members with expired terms be reappointed, which are highlighted below:

Strategic Goals and Priorities
The proposed commission appointment aligns with Key Target No. 2: Focused, Aligned Leadership and Unified Community by building a culture that attracts, retains, and motivates the highest quality talent.

PUBLIC HEARING
City of San Bernardino
Request for Council Action
Date: August 19, 2026
To: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
From: Lynn Merrill, Director of Public Works
Department: Public Works
Subject: Public Hearing and Adoption of Fiscal Year 2026-2027 Maximum Permitted Solid Waste Service Rates and Future
CPI Adjustments Through Fiscal Year 2030-2031 (All
Wards).

Recommendation:

It is recommended that the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino, California:

1. Conduct the public hearing regarding the proposed Maximum Permitted Service Rates for Integrated Solid Waste Collection, Processing, and Disposal Services; and,

City Manager's Comments
The City Manager recommends approval. The SB 1383 increase is a part of the increase this year. Even with the increase, San Bernardino remains the second lowest cost compared to other area cities.

Executive Summary
The City's franchise agreement with Burrtec Waste Industries allows annual CPI adjustments to Maximum Permitted Service Rates and additional adjustments for documented costs resulting from changes in law. Burrtec is requesting FY 2026/27 rate adjustments consisting of a 3.28% CPI adjustment, the second and final proposed Packet Page. 84
phase of SB 1383 compliance costs, and a catch-up component associated with the delayed 2026 rate implementation.

Under the proposal, the standard residential/multi-family three-cart rate would increase from $27.75 to $31.41 per month, an increase of $3.66 or 13.2%. Other residential and commercial adjustments vary by service type.

Council is also being asked to authorize CPI-only adjustments beginning July 1, 2027 through July 1, 2030, subject to the adopted formula, a 5% annual cap, applicable costof-service limitations, and advance customer notice. Future Change-in-Law adjustments are not included in that automatic authority.

Under Proposition 218 (Article XIII D, Section 6 of the California Constitution), notice of a public hearing regarding rate increases was mailed to property owners and tenants of the properties receiving solid waste collection services 45 days in advance of this scheduled public hearing (Attachment 2).

Background
The term of the Agreement for solid waste services was initially April 1, 2016 through March 31, 2026 and was subsequently extended to March 31, 2031 by the adoption of the Third Amendment to the Franchise Agreement on July 3, 2024. The CPI for the rate increases shall refer to the 12-month annual average percentage change for the most recent January 1 to December 31 period, compared to the prior January 1 to December 31 period, in the All Urban Consumers Index (CPI-U), Not Seasonally Adjusted, All Items, Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA, as published by the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics.

Under Section 21.1.3(a) of the Agreement, Burrtec may submit a proposed annual Consumer Price Index (CPI) inflationary rate adjustment and rate schedule to the City Manager for review by March 1 each year. The Agreement, per section 21.1.3(b), restricts the increase in Maximum Permissible Service Rates increase over 5% during any July 1 – June 30 period regardless of the amount increase in the CPI. However, if the changes to the CPI result in an increase above 5%, or below 0%, they shall be carried forward or applied in subsequent years.

Under Section 21.1.3(c) of the Agreement with Burrtec, “Contractor may adjust the Maximum Permissible Service Rates by an amount equal to the increase or incremental increase, as the case may be, in the costs (i.e. on any direct or indirect cost, whether fixed or variable) of Contractor’s provision of services under this Agreement that are caused by the Change in Law and that have been demonstrated to the City Council.”
Discussion
Burrtec has provided the City with the FY 2026-27 proposed solid waste rate adjustments (Attachment 3). Burrtec is requesting an annual CPI-based adjustment of

3.28% to all of the Permissible Service Rates per Section 21.1.3(a) of the Agreement.

Packet Page. 85
Burrtec is requesting increases to the Permissible Service Rates under Section

21.1.3(c) for a second, and final, phase in of Change in Law operations costs as a direct impact of implementing Senate Bill (SB) 1383. These increases vary and are based on the increase costs for Burrtec to implement SB 1383 with specific services.

In discussions with Burrtec, staff is aware that while the law change for SB 1383 occurred in 2022, Burrtec has not been able to fully implement the actual costs of service implementation increases. Some costs were permitted to be recovered in the FY 2025 Rate increase; this proposed increase due to Change in Law will fully amortize the costs of SB 1383 implementation.

Furthermore, Burrtec is requesting a minor adjustment in the rate as a “Catch-Up” component to recover costs for the delay of the rate hearing and rate adoption from July 1, as determined in the franchise agreement, to August 19, 2026. The proposed rate adjustments reflect the minimum CPI rate increases allowed by the agreement as well as Burrtec’s proposed balance of the SB 1383 program costs under the Change in Law provisions stated in the agreement. Collectively, the proposed increases account for a 13.2% increase to residential and multi-family barrel/cart Permissible Service Rates.

For complete details regarding the proposed rate increases for 2026-27, see Attachment 3.

Burrtec’s requested increase(s) for Change in Law per the agreement and is only being considered for this FY 2026-2027 increase, however staff is recommending City Council adopt an annual pass through to all Solid Waste Services customers automatic CPI adjustments for inflation (“Annual Automatic Adjustments”) as authorized under the franchise agreement. If approved, beginning July 1, 2027, and each July 1 thereafter, through and including adjustments effective on or after July 1, 2030, the rates for Solid Waste Services may be adjusted annually, without a further public hearing, by an amount not to exceed the annual percentage increase, if any, in the CPI, subject to a maximum increase of 5% annually.

In no event may an automatic increase exceed the City’s cost of providing Solid Waste Services. This pass-through language will also be demonstrated within the Proposition 218 Notice that shall be mailed (see Attachment 2). This action will allow CPI changes (not Change in Law), which are determined and go through the public hearing process, to be passed through without the need for a public hearing or resolution for the remainder of the current agreement term. Section 21.1.3(a) of the franchise agreement between Burrtec and the City provides that Burrtec may increase the Maximum Permitted Service Rates by CPI rate adjustment; this action will simplify the process with several year resolutions compared to annually. Any future change in law requested increases will continue to require a public hearing process and resolution.

This action will allow rates to increase with changes in CPI as outlined in the franchise agreement.

2021-2025 Strategic Targets and Goals
Setting the public hearing aligns with:

Key Target No. 3c: Improve Quality of Life by evaluating and enhancing the quality of public safety services.

Key Target No. 3d: Improve Quality of Life by improving the City’s appearance, cleanliness, and attractiveness.

Fiscal Impact
The City receives a franchise fee equal to 20% of Burrtec's Gross Receipts for services provided under the franchise agreement.

There will be an increase in revenues to the General Fund associated with an increase to the Maximum Permissible Service rates for solid waste.

Packet Page. 88
Burrtec reported to the City for July, 2025 through June, 2026 a total of $15,582,637.47 in revenue strictly from residential services. In the same period Burrtec reported $31,565,205.65 in total for all other non-residential services. When calculating the franchise fees (20%) paid to the City, the resulting totals are $3,116,527.49 and $6,313,041.13 respectively.

Using the calculated franchise fee revenue from the time period mentioned previously and applying the proposed 13.2% increase for residential and 3.6% to all other services: it is expected the franchise fee revenue paid to the city will increase by $833,321.43 for residential rates and $112,194.99 for all other non-residential, a total increase of $945,516.49. For further clarification of the increase effect demonstrated in the rate, please refer to Table 2.

Conclusion
It is recommended that the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino, California:

1. Conduct a public hearing to receive public comments on the proposed Maximum Permitted Service Rates for Integrated Solid Waste Collection, Processing, and Disposal Services; and,

3. If there is no majority protest, adopt Resolution No 2026-131 of the Mayor and City Council of the City of San Bernardino, California establishing the Maximum Permitted Service Rates for Integrated Solid Waste Collection, Processing, and Disposal starting August 1, 2026.

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 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.

Notice of Public Hearing – Solid Waste Rates
Notice is hereby given that the City of San Bernardino (“City”) will conduct a public hearing on the 19th day of August, 2026, at 5:00 p.m. at the Feldheym Central Library, 555 West 6th Street, San Bernardino, CA 92410 to consider adopting increases to the rates for collection, processing, and disposal of solid waste within the City (collectively, “Solid Waste Services”). The purpose of the public hearing is to consider all oral testimony and written protests to, and the adoption of, the proposed rates.

About Solid Waste Collection Services and Rates
Burrtec Waste Industries, Inc. (“Burrtec”) provides solid waste services within the City under an exclusive franchise agreement. The City hereby notifies all affected property owners and occupants of the properties receiving Solid Waste Services of proposed rate increases for the City’s residential and commercial Solid Waste Services.

A public hearing will be held to consider these new rates. All interested persons are invited to participate in the hearing and provide a written protest to the proposed rate increase. If the rates are adopted on August 19, 2026, they will become effective on August 1, 2026. For questions about the public hearing process please call 909-998-2680. For more information on the proposed rates please visit https://sbcity.org/819/Solid-Waste-Rates.

Proposed Rates and Future Automatic Increases
The proposed FY 2026-27 rates include a 3.28% inflationary increase for residential and commercial customers based on annual percentage increase in the All-Urbans Consumer Index, Not Seasonally Adjusted, All Items, Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA, as published by the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Statistics (“CPI”). The rates also include costs necessary to comply with the regulations implementing Senate Bill 1383; and an additional increase to recover costs for the delay of the public hearing and rate adoption from July 1, as stated in the franchise agreement, to August 19, 2026.

The City is also proposing to annually pass through to all Solid Waste Services customers automatic CPI adjustments for inflation (“Annual Automatic Adjustments”) as authorized under the franchise agreement. These adjustments will impact the Solid Waste Services rates. The proposed maximum rates for Solid Waste Services in Exhibit A account for inflation, subject to a 5% cap on Maximum Permitted Service Rates. If approved, beginning July 1, 2027, and each July 1 thereafter, through and including adjustments effective on or after July 1, 2030, the then-current Maximum Permitted Service Rates may be adjusted by the 12-month annual average percentage change in CPI for the most recent calendar year compared to the prior calendar year. This adjustment may be made without a further public hearing. In no event may an automatic increase exceed the City’s cost of providing Solid Waste Services.

The table below shows examples of the current and proposed monthly rates for residential cart service and the base commercial barrel service. For full rate details for all City customer service levels, roll-off services, and additional services please see Exhibit A or visit the City of San Bernardino Solid Waste Rates page at https://sbcity.org/819/Solid-WasteRates.
