SUBJECT: FIRST READING OF AN ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAPTER

8.07, MANDATORY ORGANIC WASTE DISPOSAL REDUCTION
FILE NO.:

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council approve the first reading of the Ordinance amendments to Title 8.07 of the City of Shasta Lake Municipal Code (SLMC).

BACKGROUND
The City adopted Chapter 8.07 to implement California organic waste reduction requirements under SB 1383. CalRecycle notified jurisdictions that an Office of Administrative Law action effective May 4, 2026 updated the cross-reference in title 14, California Code of Regulations, section 18989.2(a). The regulation now cites sections 493.2(d)(2), (3), (4), and (7) of the Model Water Efficient Landscape Ordinance (MWELO), title 23, Division 2, Chapter 2.7, as enacted January 2, 2025, in place of the former section 492.6(a)(3) references. The City’s ordinance contains the former citations.

Staff also reviewed the ordinance against the City’s current three-container collection program. The attached draft updates the green, blue, and gray container descriptions and removes obsolete brown-container references in the amended provisions. Commercial businesses and multifamily properties remain subject to applicable separation, access, education, contamination, and waiver requirements.

Redline convention: deleted text; added text. Changes are also encoded as tracked revisions in Microsoft Word.

8.07.010 Title.

This chapter may be cited as the Mandatory Organic Waste Disposal Reduction Ordinance.

8.07.020 Purpose and findings.

The City of Shasta Lake finds and declares:

A. State recycling law, Assembly Bill 939 of 1989, the California Integrated Waste Management Act of 1989 (California Public Resources Code Section 40000 et seq., as amended, supplemented, superseded, and replaced from time to time), requires cities and counties to reduce, reuse, and recycle (including composting) solid waste generated in their jurisdictions to the maximum extent feasible before any incineration or landfill disposal of waste, to conserve water, energy, and other natural resources, and to protect the environment.

B. State recycling law, Assembly Bill 341 of 2011 (approved by the Governor of the State of California on October 5, 2011, which amended Sections 41730, 41731, 41734, 41735, 41736, 41800, 42926, 44004, and 50001 of, and added Sections 40004, 41734.5, and 41780.01 and Chapter 12.8 (commencing with Section 42649) to Part 3 of Division 30 of, and added and repealed Section 41780.02 of, the Public Resources Code, as amended, supplemented, superseded and replaced from time to time), places requirements on businesses and multi-family property owners that generate a specified threshold amount of solid waste to arrange for recycling services and requires jurisdictions to implement a mandatory commercial recycling program.

C. State organics recycling law, Assembly Bill 1826 of 2014 (approved by the Governor of the State of California on September 28, 2014, which added Chapter 12.9 (commencing with Section 42649.8) to Part 3 of Division 30 of the Public Resources Code, relating to solid waste, as amended, supplemented, superseded, and replaced from time to time), requires businesses and multi-family property owners that generate a specified threshold amount of solid waste, recycling, and organic waste per week to arrange for recycling services for that waste, requires jurisdictions to implement a recycling program to divert organic waste from businesses subject to the law, and requires jurisdictions to implement a mandatory commercial organics recycling program.
29

D. SB 1383, the Short-lived Climate Pollutant Reduction Act of 2016, requires CalRecycle to develop regulations to reduce organics in landfills as a source of methane. The regulations place requirements on multiple entities including jurisdictions, residential households, commercial businesses and business owners, commercial edible food generators, haulers, self haulers, food recovery organizations, and food recovery services to support achievement of statewide organic waste disposal reduction targets.

E. SB 1383, the Short-lived Climate Pollutant Reduction Act of 2016, requires jurisdictions to adopt and enforce an ordinance or enforceable mechanism to implement relevant provisions of SB 1383 regulations. This ordinance will also help reduce food insecurity by requiring commercial edible food generators to arrange to have the maximum amount of their edible food, that would otherwise be disposed, be recovered for human consumption.

B. Other remedies allowed by law may be used, including, but not limited to, civil action or prosecution as misdemeanor or infraction. Jurisdiction may pursue civil actions in the California courts to seek recovery of unpaid administrative citations.

AGENDA ITEM
City Council
TO: Mayor and City Council Members
FROM: Charity Tatlow, City Clerk
DATE: October 6, 2026
SUBJECT: TERMINATING THE CITY’S MEETING BROADCAST SERVICE ON CHANNEL 181
FILE NO.:

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the attached resolution authorizing the City Manager, or their designee, to terminate the City’s agreement/service with the Shasta County Arts Council for the rebroadcast of City Council and Planning Commission meetings on Channel 181.

BACKGROUND
For several years, the City of Shasta Lake has utilized the Shasta County Arts Council’s public access television service to rebroadcast City Council and Planning Commission meetings on Channel 181.

The service was established at a time when the City’s meetings were not readily available to the public through online video streaming. Channel 181 provided residents with an additional means of viewing City meetings after the meetings had occurred.

The City’s method of providing public access to meetings has since changed significantly.

City Council and Planning Commission meetings are now livestreamed through the City’s website, allowing members of the public to view meetings while they are occurring.

Meeting videos are also retained on the City’s website and are available for viewing after the meeting has concluded. The City’s website currently directs the public to its online meeting livestreams and archived meeting videos.
5555
The Shasta County Arts Council continues to operate Channel 181 as a community and government access channel and identifies local government meeting programming, including Shasta Lake City Council meetings, as part of its programming.

Over the past two years, Channel 181 viewership of City meetings has generally ranged from zero to one viewer, with an occasional broadcast receiving two viewers. Additionally, because Channel 181 is shared with other jurisdictions and programming, City meeting broadcasts may occasionally be moved to a different time or day when another jurisdiction holds a special meeting.

Given the extremely limited use of the Channel 181 service, the City's ability to provide both live and archived meeting access online, and the annual cost of approximately $2,500 to $3,200, staff believes that continuing the service is no longer an efficient use of City funds. Terminating the service would eliminate this annual expense while maintaining public access to City Council and Planning Commission meetings through the City's existing online livestream and video archive.

Termination of the service would not eliminate public access to City meetings. Rather, it would discontinue one method of accessing meetings that has become substantially less utilized since the implementation of online livestreaming and video archives.

FISCAL IMPACTS
Termination of the service would result in an estimated annual savings of approximately $2,500 to $3,200, depending on the number and length of meetings broadcast during a given year.

A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SHASTA LAKE

AUTHORIZING THE TERMINATION OF THE CITY'S MEETING BROADCAST

SERVICE WITH THE SHASTA COUNTY ARTS COUNCIL FOR REBROADCAST OF CITY COUNCIL AND PLANNING COMMISSION MEETINGS ON CHANNEL 181 WHEREAS, The City of Shasta Lake currently utilizes the Shasta County Arts Council's Channel 181 broadcast service to rebroadcast City Council and Planning Commission meetings; and
WHEREAS, The City now provides live online streaming of City Council and Planning Commission meetings and maintains an online archive of previous meetings, providing the public with convenient access to meetings both during and after they occur; and WHEREAS, Channel 181 broadcasts have received extremely limited viewership, generally zero to one viewer over the past two years, with an occasional broadcast receiving two viewers, while the service costs the City approximately $2,500 to $3,200 annually; and
WHEREAS, The City Council finds that, in light of the limited utilization of the Channel 181 service and the availability of live and archived online meeting videos, continuing the service is no longer an efficient use of City resources; and WHEREAS, Termination of the Channel 181 service will not eliminate public access to City Council or Planning Commission meetings, which will continue to be available through the City's online livestream and video archive.

NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Shasta Lake hereby authorizes termination of the City's Channel 181 meeting broadcast service with the Shasta County Arts Council.
