September 13, 2024 Mr. Curtis Williams City of Santa Clarita 23920 Valencia Blvd Santa Clarita, CA 91355 RE: 2025 Contract Rate Adjustment Dear Curtis: Pursuant to the City of Santa Clarita's Agreement for Commercial and Residential Solid Waste Collection Services, dated July 1, 2023, Burrtec respectfully requests the 2025 annual CPI rate adjustment per Article 6.04.1. Please find the attached rate adjustment worksheets, which include the standard rate adjustment for the periods delineated in Article 6 and the proposed updated 2025 rate sheets. In addition, per Article 6.04.2, all SFD Service Unit Maximum Service Rates shall remain below all jurisdictions, including Incorporated Cities and Unincorporated County Areas, with Source Separated (Garbage, Recycling, and Organic Waste) franchised collection services in the Santa Clarita Valley. Effective July 1, 2024, the monthly basic trash collection rate in the Santa Clarita Valley unincorporated areas of Los Angeles County is $37.49, whereas the proposed 2025 City of Santa Clarita SFD rates are increasing from $28.92 to $29.87 respectively. This equates to a 3.28% increase, which is below the annual rate cap of 4% per Article 6.04.2. On behalf of Burrtec Waste Industries we would like to thank the City of Santa Clarita for their time and consideration on this issue and look forward to more detailed discussions. Sincerely, Dennis Verner General Manager
