Fixed Program Cost will not exceed $5.19 per household for Fiscal Year 2027. Fixed Program Costs may include, but are not limited to, up to eleven (11) County HHW Program staff members, facility lease costs, vehicle lease costs, office rent, office supplies, county administrative overhead, county legal counsel, training costs, equipment and facility maintenance and union negotiated salary and benefit changes.

2. Section 6. VARIABLE COST PER CAR is amended in full to read:

6. VARIABLE COST PER CAR

The Variable Cost Per Car is the cost associated with actual labor, waste disposal, transportation and other services provided to the residents at the County Household Hazardous Waste Collection Facilities (CoHHWCF) and at Temporary Events. The Variable Cost Per Car is estimated to be approximately $66.02 per participating resident car for Fiscal Years 2025 and 2026. The Variable Cost Per Car is estimated to be approximately $86.73 per participating resident car for Fiscal Year 2027. The estimated cost per car will be adjusted to reflect actual service costs. After Fixed Program Costs and San José Facility Use Surcharge are allocated on a per household basis, the Variable Cost Per Car will be used to calculate the costs to service 4% of households across all participating jurisdictions.

If the level of 4% of households is not reached in the CITY, the CoHHW Program may use the remaining balance of funds, in cooperation with the CITY, to increase public outreach and/or provide additional services in that jurisdiction the following year.
