HAZARDOUS WASTE SCREENING PROTOCOL
Hazardous materials inadvertently collected along with Solid Waste is a persistent problem facing our industry. Drivers are trained to avoid accidental collection of hazardous materials; and, whenever possible, front or side loading vehicles are used to allow drivers to easily spot hazardous materials. If hazardous waste is found in the container; or if recyclables or organic waste are contaminated with Solid Waste, the customer is notified in writing with a, tag attached to the Container. Burrtec drivers and Route Supervisors conduct routine waste audits and carefully inspect containers before they are serviced. If contamination is found, written notification is attached to the container.
Burrtec’s written notification system has been in place for many years and it is viewed as an education process for the customer and a safety measure for the both driver and the City.
Burrtec has successfully implemented the following system to address this problem:
1. Continual education and identification to the customers regarding the dangers of improperly disposed of hazardous materials and locations where this material can be taken for proper management.
2. Tags to be filled out and attached to a customer’s container indicating what hazardous materials have been identified in the container and proper disposal methods.
3. Driver training on the identification of hazardous materials that have been combined with Solid Waste.
In the even hazardous materials do appear in the waste stream, Burrtec has established the following procedures:
1. Collectors receive safety training regarding hazardous waste identification, inadvertent contact and notification procedures.
2. Once a suspected hazardous waste situation is identified by the Collector, the local supervisor is contacted to isolate the area or load.
46708.00113\34915266.2
EXHIBITS
Agreement Between the City of Upland and Burrtec Waste Industries, Inc. for Solid Waste Collection, Processing and Disposal Service
EXHIBIT I-2
3. The local Department of Environmental Health is contacted and steps are taken to properly clean-up and dispose of the material.
4. Investigative efforts are made to establish the source of the material and the individual(s) involved.
Additionally, all Solid Waste, recyclables, and organic waste collected in the City of Upland will be delivered to the West Valley Materials Recovery Facility (MRF). The West Valley MRF has a hazardous waste inspection and load-checking program to eliminate accidental disposal of hazardous waste from the City of Upland in the landfill. Commercial waste will be processed for recyclables and organic waste recovery, a process that includes another inspection level for unacceptable waste. The West Valley MRF will work closely with the hauling operation to identify loads and specific accounts that might become problem generators. This identification will lead to monitoring and inspection at the source.

CATEGORICALLY EXEMPT FROM CALIFORNIA
ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT REVIEW
WHEREAS, the City of Upland (“City”) currently owns in fee that certain real property, measuring approximately 650 square feet in area, which is a portion of the parcel with Assessor Parcel Number: 1046-592-24 and adjacent to the property with the address of 101 N. 2nd Avenue, Upland, California, 91786, more specifically described within Exhibit A (“Property”); and
WHEREAS, the City intends to sell the Property by executing a Purchase and Sale Agreement in a form substantially similar to Exhibit “B” attached to this Resolution and incorporated by reference herein (“PSA”) with Mark Davidson, doing business as Upland Executive Offices, LLC, a California Limited Liability Company (“Purchaser”); and
WHEREAS, on May 9th, 2022, the City Council passed and approved Resolution No. 6650 declaring the Property as exempt surplus land; and
WHEREAS, California Government Code Section 54220, et seq. (the “Surplus Land Act”) requires that, prior to the disposal of any surplus land, unless an exemption applies, a local agency must provide notice to, among others, affordable housing developers, and thereafter negotiate in good faith for ninety (90) days with any parties who submit a notice of interest; and
WHEREAS, the City submitted exempt surplus land documentation for review by the Department of Housing and Community Development (“HCD”) in compliance with the Surplus Land Act procedures required by law, and received consent from HCD to proceed with the sale of the Property pursuant to Resolution No. 6650 and finding the Property “exempt surplus land” in a letter sent to the City on June 1, 2022; and
WHEREAS, on May 25, 2022, the Planning Commission passed and approved Planning Commission Resolution No. 4966 finding that the location, purpose, and extent of the disposition conforms with the General Plan in conformity with the requirements of Government Code Section 65402; and
WHEREAS, California Government Code Sections 37420 through 37430 authorize the City to dispose of Property; and
Resolution No.
WHEREAS, on May 23, 2022, the City Council passed and approved Resolution No. 6657, which declared the City’s intent to sell the Property and announced a public hearing scheduled for Monday, June 13, 2022 at 7:00 P.M. or as soon thereafter in order to hear any protests to the sale in City Hall Council Chambers; and
WHEREAS, on June 13, 2022, the City Council accepted and heard any protest to the sale in accordance with the requirements of the Alternative Land Disposition process, before approving the Purchase and Sale Agreement. Pursuant to Government Code section 37425, if any protests are received, the PSA must be approved by a four-fifths vote of the City Council.
NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Upland does hereby resolve, find, determine, and order as follows:
Section 1. RECITALS. The foregoing recitals are true and correct and are incorporated herein and made an operative part of this Resolution.
Section 2. APPROVALS. The City Council hereby approves sale of the Property to the Purchaser for valuable consideration and directs the City Manager to execute the attached PSA and do or cause their designees to do any other actions necessary to carry out the intent of this Resolution. The City Manager is authorized to make minor modifications to the PSA that fulfills the intent of the parties, with consultation from the City Attorney’s Office. The City Council hereby finds that the sale of the Property to the Purchaser is in the best interest of the City.
Section 3. PUBLIC CONVENIENCE AND NECESSITY FINDINGS. The City Council of the City hereby finds and determines that public convenience and necessity require the sale of the Property. The factors demonstrating that the public convenience and necessity require the sale of the Property include but are not limited to the following: the Lot currently is a source of underutilized space, too small to construct new facilities or housing, and can be put to higher use as an extension of outdoor dining space for City residents creating additional economic activity and revenues for the City.
Section 4. CEQA. The City determines that this Resolution and the actions authorized hereunder are exempt from environmental review pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (Pub. Resources Code, § 21000 et seq.) (“CEQA”) and State CEQA Guidelines (Cal. Code Regs. Tit. 14, § 15301). Specifically, the Class 1 Exemption for Existing Facilities, which applies to the “the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alteration of existing public or private structures, facilities, mechanical equipment, or topographical features, involving negligible or no expansion of existing or former use.” The sale of the Property to the owner of the contiguous parcel for purposes of outdoor dining space provides an additional 650 square feet to an existing structure, which is less than either 50 percent of the floor area of the existing structure or 2,500 square feet, whichever is less.
Resolution No.
Section 5. NOTICE OF EXEMPTION. The City Council hereby directs staff to prepare, execute and file with the San Bernardino County Clerk a Notice of Exemption within five working days of the approval of this Resolution.
Section 6. CUSTODIAN OF DOCUMENTS. The custodian of documents constituting the record of proceedings for this matter is the City Clerk’s Office. The documents constituting the record of proceedings for this matter are located at City Hall at 460 N. Euclid Avenue, Upland, CA 91786.
Section 7. SEVERABILITY. If any provision of this Resolution is held invalid, the remainder of this Resolution shall not be affected by such invalidity, and the provisions of this Resolution are severable.
Section 8. EFFECTIVE DATE. This Resolution shall become effective immediately upon its adoption.
PASSED, APPROVED and ADOPTED this 13th day of June, 2022.
Bill Velto, Mayor
I, Keri Johnson, City Clerk of the City of Upland, do hereby certify that the foregoing Resolution was adopted at a regular meeting of the City Council held on the 13th day of June, 2022, by the following vote:
