End
Previous Board/Board Committee Actions:
By Resolution 16-063 (June 7, 2016), the Board authorized submittal of a Regional Payment Program Application by County of Mendocino staff and authorized Mendocino Solid Waste Management Authority (MSWMA) to execute all related documents.
Summary of Request:
The Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle) administers the Beverage Container Recycling City/County Payment Program (Payment Program), which can be used to fund litter reduction activities that include beverage recycling containers. Historically, the funds allocated through the Payment Program to the County of Mendocino (County) and Cities of Ukiah, Fort Bragg, and Willits (Cities) have been used by MSWMA to fund a portion of illegal dump cleanup activities countywide. By Resolution 16-063 (June 7, 2016), the County has been authorized to submit an annual application and the General Manager of MSWMA has been authorized to execute all documents related to the Payment Program on behalf of the County, as part of a regional recycling program along with the Cities. In 2023, the City of Ukiah (City) assumed the General Manager duties of MSWMA. As the current administrator of MSWMA, it would be more efficient and appropriate for the City to be the one to submit the annual application and to execute all documents related to the Payment Program. A draft resolution reflecting that change has been prepared for the Board’s consideration and adoption.
Alternative Action/Motion:
Do not approve City of Ukiah to submit applications and execute documents on behalf of the County.
