Recommended Action/Motion:
recommendation
Approve the amended and restated Joint Powers Agreement for the Mendocino Solid Waste Management Authority (County-Wide); and authorize Chair to sign same.
End
Previous Board/Board Committee Actions:
The original Mendocino Solid Waste Management Authority (MSWMA) Joint Powers Agreement (JPA) was approved in October of 1990.
Summary of Request:
The original JPA was executed in October of 1990. City staff has assisted MSWMA in preparing revisions to the agreement so that the operation and actions of the agency reflect the JPA more closely. The Proposed JPA is attached, as is the original JPA.
The most significant change to the JPA is with regards to approval of the MSWMA budget. The amended JPA proposes that a MSWMA budget with no member agency contributions needs only a 3/5 vote of the MSWMA five (5) member commission (the “Commission”); two of which are County Supervisors. However, an MSWMA budget with member agency contributions requires a 4/5 vote of the MSWMA Commission. If member agency contributions are included in the MSWMA budget, the total contribution of the member agencies is not to exceed $100,000. The total contribution from the member agencies will be divided among the agencies based on the ratio of the population of each member agency compared to the total population of the member agencies. If the MSWMA Commission were to determine that MSWMA budget obligations require a total contribution greater than $100,000, the JPA provides that each member agency would need to approve such contribution.
Alternative Action/Motion:
Provide direction to staff.

budget clarification: This action could allow a future scenario where a 4/5 vote of the MSWMA
