CITY OF SEBASTOPOL CITY COUNCIL
AGENDA ITEM REPORT FOR MEETING OF: January 21, 2025
======================================================================================== To: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers
From: Mary Gourley, Assistant City Manager
Subject: Approval of Resolution Ratifying and Adopting Rate Option 2 for Solid Waste Collection Agreement with Sonoma County Resource Recovery for garbage, recycling, and organic waste collection services and inclusion of franchise fee as discussed and recommended at the January 7, 2025, City Council Meeting. The requirement is for the City Council to adopt a resolution incorporating the rates and the Franchise Fee to be paid to the City of Sebastopol by the vendor per the Agreement. The selected Contractor shall pay applicable franchise fees established by the City, which is 10% of Gross Revenues for Collection Services provided in the City. There is no negative fiscal impact to the City budget with the adoption of the Resolution.
======================================================================================== RECOMMENDATION:
That the City Council:
1. Ratify Option 2 as recommended at the January 7, 2025, City Council Meeting for solid waste service rates in the approved Solid Waste Collection Agreement with Sonoma County Resource Recovery for garbage, recycling, and organic waste collection services; and
2. Adopt a resolution setting the City’s Franchise Fee at 10% of Sonoma County Resource Recovery’s gross revenues from provision of services in the City.
======================================================================================== SUMMARY:
On January 7, 2025, the Council authorized the execution of the Solid Waste Collection Agreement (Agreement) with Sonoma County Resource Recovery (SCRR) for garbage, recyclable materials, and organic waste collection.
The Council considered two different options for solid waste services, and made a recommendation to proceed with Option 2 for solid waste rates. This decision followed a competitive request for proposals (RFP) process initiated on February 20, 2024, which resulted in two proposals: one from SCRR and the other from the incumbent, Recology Sonoma Marin. A Council-appointed ad hoc committee, supported by a Solid Waste Proposals Evaluation Panel made up of City staff, reviewed the submitted proposals, conducted interviews, and selected SCRR as the top proposer. Following successful negotiations, the Council approved the new Agreement.
Option 2 for solid waste rates consists of the following:
• Stepped-in rate adjustments over three years, with a 5% increase on July 1, 2025, followed by two 9.8% increases on July 1, 2026, and July 1, 2027;
• Starting July 1, 2028, rates will adjust annually based on the indexed rate methodology, with a one-time additional 2% increase applied in 2028 (on top of the annual indexed rate adjustment for July 1, 2028), followed by standard annual indexed adjustments as described below, with an annual indexed rate adjustment to maximum solid waste service rates, effective July 1, 2028; • Rate compensation to SCRR for collection services will be adjusted by the national Consumer Price Index (CPI) for water, sewer and trash utility rates (WST), capped at 5%; and • Rate compensation for external post-collection activities, including landfill disposal, organics composting, and recyclables processing will be adjusted annually in alignment with the percentage change in tipping fees at disposal and processing facilities, which are not controlled by SCRR, if such changes occur.
Agenda Item Number: 22 Agenda Item Number: 22
City Council Meeting Packet of: January 21, 2025
As a point of comparison, Option 1 for solid waste rates would consist of a one-time adjustment effective July 1, 2025, at which time rates would increase by 15.8% compared to current rates. This would be followed by annual indexed rate adjustments in future years based on the indexed rate methodology described above.
A Low Income Discount (15% discount to maximum rates) will be applied to customers enrolled in PG&E’s CARE program. (This would be the case under either Option.)
The Franchise Agreement includes provisions limiting future adjustments to maximum solid waste service rates due to changes in law or extraordinary changes in cost, including a prohibition on any changes in rates if SCRR were not to retain its existing services agreement in Sonoma County with the Town of Windsor.
The City’s RFP for solid waste collection agreement directed proposers to assume that the Franchise Fee will be 10% of gross revenues for services provided in the City, which is the same percentage as the existing franchise fee in the current agreement with Recology, which expires June 30, 2025. A franchise fee of at least 10% is common for most solid waste franchise agreements. Agreement Section 4.05.1 states that the Franchise Fee is to be set by resolution of the City Council, which is the reason for the recommended action. Adopting the attached resolution results in no changes to the maximum service rates proposed by SCRR.
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION:
After a competitive process, the ad hoc committee recommended and Council voted 3-2 to approve the solid waste franchise agreement with SCRR, with some key points below:
• Renewal of Contract with Recology was not an extension or renewal of the current rates/services. • The process included multiple steps at several Council meetings, including the decision to pursue an RFP largely because of Recology’s high rates after nearly a year of negotiations, and the setting of criteria for review of the proposals.
• The contract negotiations the City engaged in, first with Recology and then SCRR, were largely confidential to protect the City’s negotiating positions. This prevented the City from engaging in significant outreach at that time. As part of the franchise agreement, SCRR will be preparing a transition plan which will involve significant outreach to customers to help them with the change in providers and to ensure they receive the appropriate level of service. • At time of writing, SCRR has reached out to or made contact with 46 large and small businesses, property management companies, apartment complexes, and mobile home parks, in order to discuss the transition and any changes in service that the business may be interested in. This information will be updated as additional contacts are made.
• SCRR was the highest-ranked proposer because it delivered on lowest overall base service rates for service options for single-family residents, multi-family dwellings, and commercial businesses (Rate Equity). Base rates will drop for the majority of residents, creating a fairer system for the entire community. Rates for most businesses will be lower than the rates proposed by Recology. • SCRR’s additional charges for recycling and organics incentivize efficient “right-sizing” and overall waste reduction. “Right-sizing” garbage, recycling, and organics service levels to provide the amount of needed service without paying for excess amounts of service will lessen cost impacts associated with the additional charges.
• SCRR’s proposal provides for individual hand-in-hand collaboration working with businesses and multifamily dwellings to right-size all waste services to reduce or eliminate apparent changes in costs. While some individual businesses may not need to right-size their service, it is common throughout the region for multi-family dwellings and businesses to be paying for excess service levels.

• Recology’s approach focused on the short term. SCRR’s rates support long-term solutions that better align with California regulations and community values
Information on Franchise Fees
Article XI of the California Constitution and the California Public Resources Code allows cities to regulate refuse and recycling services. On July 1, 2025, SCRR will become the City’s sole provider of refuse hauling and recycling services. SCRR also performs these services in the City of Windsor. These services are pursuant to the Agreement approved by Council on January 7, 2025, between the City and SCRR, which outlines the services that must be provided by the company as well as a methodology to be followed to adjust maximum service rates each year.
The Agreement with SCRR includes a Franchise Fee, which recovers the City’s costs of providing solid wasterelated services, including the City’s management and administration of the Agreement, as well as charges for the reasonable value of the use of City property, including streets, for the provision of solid waste services.
COMMUNITY OUTREACH:
This item has been noticed in accordance with the Ralph M. Brown Act and was available for public viewing and review at least 72 hours prior to schedule meeting date. The City has also used social media to promote and advertise the City Council Meeting Agenda Items.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Both rate options include the assumed 10% Franchise Fee that SCRR will pay to the City on a monthly basis. The Franchise Fee is deposited into the City’s General Fund. The City’s fiscal year (FY) 2024-25 Adopted Budget projected franchise fee revenues from solid waste services at $301,350. Keeping the Franchise Fee at the 10% of gross revenues (as per current practice) is expected to result in a modest increase in revenues commensurate with the changes in maximum service rates and therefore gross revenues (which may fluctuate depending on subscriptions to solid waste service levels by residents, multi-family dwellings, and businesses).
RECOMMENDED ACTIONS AND ALTERNATIVES:
1. Ratify Option 2 as recommended at the January 7, 2025, City Council Meeting. Stepped-in rate adjustments over three years, with a 5% increase on July 1, 2025, followed by two 9.8% increases on July 1, 2026, and July 1, 2027. Beginning July 1, 2028, rates will adjust annually using the indexed rate methodology, with a one-time additional 2% applied in 2028, followed by standard annual indexed adjustments thereafter; AND
2. Adopt the attached Resolution setting the Franchise Fee at 10% of SCRR’s gross revenues for services provided in the City.

3. Resolution setting the City’s Franchise Fee at 10% of SCRR’s gross revenues.
APPROVALS:
Department Head Approval: Approval Date: 1-15-2025
CEQA Determination (Planning): Approval Date: 1-15-2025 Establishing the maximum rates that may be charged under the solid waste franchise agreement is exempt from CEQA pursuant to CEQA Regulations section 15061(b)(3) since it can be seen with certainty that awarding the franchise agreement and establishing rates will have no impact on the environment. The collection and disposal of solid waste is mandated and regulated by state law. The awarding of a new franchise agreement and establishing maximum rates will continue an existing service and will not result in significant new impacts on the Agenda Item Number: 22 Agenda Item Number: 22

WHEREAS, on January 7, 2025, City Council approved the execution of the Solid Waste Collection Agreement (Agreement) for garbage, recyclable materials, and organic waste collection services with Sonoma County Resource Recovery (SCRR); and
WHEREAS, Section 4.05.1 states that the Franchise Fee payable by SCRR to the City, to fund the City’s costs of providing solid waste-related services, including the City’s management and administration of the Agreement, as well as charges for the reasonable value of the use of City property, including streets, for the provision of solid waste services, is to be set by resolution of the City Council; and WHEREAS, the maximum service rates included in the Agreement contemplate that the City’s Franchise Fee will be 10% of SCRR’s gross revenues, as was required by the City’s competitive request for proposals (RFP) for Solid Waste Collection Agreement; and
