NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING AND
PROPOSED SOLID WASTE RATE
INCREASES FOR UTILITY BILLS ON
AND AFTER JULY 1, 2022
The City provides customers with dependable ,
efficient, safe, and cost-effective solid waste
services for residents and businesses that call
Santa Clara home .
The proposed solid waste rates have been
generated through a recent rate study to ensure
that each service rate equitably captures the
cost of service . Each proposed solid waste rate
was developed to include the sum of the
following cost elements :
1) Collection costs;
2) Processing and disposal or composting
costs; and
3) City program costs.
Rate increases are necessary to fund the
contractually obligated compensation
adjustments paid to the City 's solid waste
service providers.
The City will continue to implement appropriate
and prudent cost-saving and cost-controlling
measures to maintain the affordability of these
basic services .
