Recommended Action/Motion:
recommendation
Adopt resolution approving Second Amendment to BOS Agreement No. 22-306 / Department of Transportation Agreement No. 220039, Amended and Restated Franchise Agreement for Solid Waste Franchise Area One (Willits, Westport, Laytonville, Covelo and Leggett Areas); and authorize Chair to sign same.
End
Previous Board/Board Committee Actions:
By Resolution 22-251 (December 13, 2022), the Board approved Board of Supervisors (BOS) Agreement Number (No.) 22-306 / Department of Transportation (DOT) Agreement No. 220039, Amended and Restated Franchise Agreement between County of Mendocino and Solid Waste of Willits, Inc., for Solid Waste Franchise Area One. By Resolution 23-202 (December 19, 2023), the Board approved BOS Agreement No. 23-214 / DOT Agreement No. 230040, Assignment and Assumption Agreement Among Solid Wastes of Willits, Inc., Redwood Waste Solutions, Inc., and County of Mendocino, which assigned the Franchise Agreement for Solid Waste Franchise Area No. 1 to Redwood Waste Solutions, Inc.
Summary of Request:
Redwood Waste Solutions (RWS) provides solid waste collection services to all areas of the County, including Solid Waste Franchise Areas 1, 2, 3 and 4. Currently, the holidays defined in each Franchise Agreement are not consistent, which creates inequity among employees being allowed holidays off. RWS has requested the holidays in Franchise Area No. 1 be amended to be New Year’s Day, Memorial Day, Fourth of July, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, and Christmas Day, to allow all staff to have the holidays off, and DOT staff agree this is reasonable. The change to the holiday schedule will not result in a decrease of services, but rather a delay of one day in collection on those defined holidays. Amendment No. 2 to BOS Agreement No. 22-306 / DOT Agreement No. 220039 amends the definition of “Holidays” to read “New Year’s Day, Memorial Day, Fourth of July, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, and Christmas Day”. DOT is also recommending changes to the holidays for Franchise Areas 3 and 4 under other agenda items and, if approved, will make holidays consistent across the County.
Alternative Action/Motion:
Do not approve amendment and provide direction to staff.
