1;TEM EXPLANATION:
On April 9, 1991, the San Diego County Board of Supervisors directed the Chief
Adrddstrative Officer to prepare a mandatory recycling ordinance. On June 11,1991,
the Board of Supervisors adopted an ordinance which mandates recycling in San Diegc
County. The mandatory recycling ordinance includes five primary components:
1) Designation of materials to be recycled from residential, commercial, an(
industrial sources (Exhibit 1);
A requirement that all collectors providing services in the unincorporated area
must provide their customers with collection of designated recyclables ii
accordance with the regional schedule;
A requirement that waste generators in the unincorporated areas of the Count
must store designated recyclables separately from solid waste for pick-up;
A prohibition against disposal of designated recyclable materials with mixe refuse at County solid waste facilities, a schedule for implementing enforcemer
measures, and surcharges for failure to comply;
An exemption from inspection for vehicles carrying loads from cities that ha7
adopted and are diligently enforcing approved recycling provisions similar to th
ordinance.
2)
3)
4)
5)
The ordinance is to be implemented first in the North County region because of limitc
capacity at San Marcos landfill and the need to minimize the transportation of wast
to distant disposal sites.
e PAGE 2 OF AB# /1,,41*
County Ordinance Enforcement:
County Department of Public Works personnel will enforce the ordinance by conductin:
random inspections of vehicles to determine contents and origins of vehicles enterin:
County disposal facilities. Vehicles carrying loads from those cities that have adoptec
and are diligently enforcing similar, approved, mandatory recycling ordinances XI
exempt from random inspections and the surcharges identified below.
The ordinance implementation schedule by waste source and region, includin:
progressive enforcement measures, is attached (Exhibit 2). Following the initial the
month warning period at each County landfill, haulers delivering solid waste containin:
designated recyclables will be subject to initial surcharges of $25, increasing tc
$100/load over a four month period.
Citizens hauling their own wastes in cars, vans, and pick-up trucks, will be subject ti
an initial one month warning period in the North County region and then assessmen
ordinance for single-family residential wastes in each region of the County.
Ordinance Incentive Program:
As an incentive to stimulate single-family curbside and multi-family residential recyclinj
programs, the County is offering noncompetitive tonnage grants. Grants will bc
awarded according to the total tons of designated residential recyclables, excluding yarc
and wood wastes, documented as having been collected and marketed from each ciq
and the unincorporated area. Documentation will include receipts and weight ticket:
for the sale of materials, and reporting forms that the County will provide, tc
summarize the tonnage information.
Tonnage grants will be awarded quarterly commencing with the first quarter of I?
1991/92, at the rate of $7.75 per ton. The County has appropriated $2 million for th~ program in ET 1991/92,
Staff estimates that approximately 5,000 tons of residential recyclables will be collectec
and recycled from the City's curbside collection and multi-family residential recyclint,
programs. However, this figure may vary, as collection statistics from the multi-familj
program are not yet available.
Model Mandatory Recycling Ordinance:
Staff of the cities of North County have met and drafted a model mandatory recycling
ordinance. The draft ordinance is designed to serve as a model ordinance for all cities
County staff and the Board of Supervisors have reviewed and approved the mode
ordinance. The Cities of Del Mar, Vista and Escondido have adopted a variation of tht
model ordinance, and other North County cities are considering adoption of the mode
ordinance or a variation.

i. Proposed Program:
Staff proposes that the City Council adopt a mandatory recycling ordinance and
program based on the model ordinance so that:
1)
2)
3)
waste disposed of at the San Marcos landfill can be reduced;
loads generated in Carlsbad will be exempt from random inspection; and
to avoid penalties for non-compliance.
The proposed ordinance provides for the following:
1. A list of designated recyclables which may be amended from time to time
by resolution of the City Council.
The disposal of designated recyclables with mixed refuse is prohibited.
The City's enforcement program will be established by a Council Policy
Statement and will consist of three warnings, and reference to Code
Enforcement upon the third warning for further enforcement action.
2.
3.
Enforcement:
The City's refuse collection and recycling contractor has agreed to initial enforcement
of mandatory recycling provisions through warnings. Coast Waste Management (CWM)
refuse collection personnel will inspect trash as they perform their refuse collection
CWM staff will notify City code enforcement staff of third offenses. After the third
offense, Code Enforcement personnel will conduct inspections, and if necessary, cite
offenders. This enforcement process is established by the proposed Council Policy No. E attached as Exhibit 7.
Yard Waste:
One of the requirements of the County's mandatory recycling program is yard wastc
collection. The County ordinance requires cities in the North County to implement i
yard waste collection program no later than January 1, 1992. Staff of the Nortl
County cities have been discussing various yard waste collection methodologies in ar
attempt to arrive at a collection system that most cities could use. Implementation o
similar programs in each city could serve to reduce customer/citizen confusion anc

-. Curbside Recycling Program Summary
Attached is a summary of Carlsbad residents' participation in the curbside recycling
program during fiscal year 1990-91 (Exhibit 8). Participation rates reflect weekly
Multi-Family Program are also attached. However, these statistics only reflect partial
implementation (@75% complete) of the program.
AB 939 Update
Legislation was introduced which would have extended the deadline for submission of
the Source Reduction and Recycling Elements to the California Integrated Waste
Management Board from July 1, 1991 to January 1, 1992. Subsequently, legislation
was introduced which would have extended the deadline additionally, to July 1, 1992.
However, this legislation was not addressed before the end of the last session,
effectively "killing" the issue. Therefore, technically, all of the cities in San Diego
County, as well as the County itself and approximately 300 other California jurisdictions
are in non-compliance with the July 1,1991 deadline. It is expected that the legislation
to extend the deadline will be re-introduced in the next session.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The adoption of a mandatory recycling program in the City of Carlsbad will result in
an administrative cost to administer the fines assessed on violators. It is anticipated
that the revenue generated by the fines will offset this cost. Coast Waste Management,
IC. will absorb the costs associated with issuance of warnings. Revenues to the City
from the noncompetitive tonnage grants are expected to be in the amount of $40,000.
These funds will be used to offset a portion of Solid Waste Program costs, such as yard
waste collection and a backyard composting pilot project.
The single-family curbside program is already in place and is funded by the sale 0.
recyclable materials and a $1 .OO residential recycling fee. A multi-family residentia
recycling program is partially implemented (@75% complete) and a fee has yet to bt
determined by staff and CWM.
Implementation of a Yard Waste Curbside Collection Program is mandated by 1/1/92
and will result in an increase to residential customers. Staff is reviewing a prograrr
which would charge customers based on the volume of yard waste set out fol
collection.
Implementation of commercial collection programs (both office and hospitality) ar
mandated by 7/1/92 and are currently in the development stage. These programs wi:
result in a yet to be determined increase in the commercial rate.
Further enforcement action, if any, will be funded by the Solid Waste Enterprise Func
participation. Monthly participation is estimated to exceed 80%. Statistics on the
