AB # 12 289 TITLE:
MTG, 6/22/93 APPROVAL OF AN AMENDED INTERIM
DEPT. CM SOLID WASTE AGREEMENT
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Adopt Resolution No. 93-186 approving an amended, modified agreement by, bc
and among the County of San Diego and various cities of the County establish
Interim Solid Waste Commission and providing for the disposal of solid waste.
ITEM EXPLANATION
The Carlsbad City Council at its May 18, 1993 meeting, considered, but did not ai
the first version of the Interim Solid Waste Agreement. A number of other citic
declined to approve the Agreement or took no action. Section 2.1 of the Agrc
provided the County, and each city in the County, would have to execute the doc
for it to be effective. Since the agreement failed to be receive unanimous approva
not become effective. As a result, the Board of Supervisors amended the Agreerr
deleting the requirement for unanimous City approval.
On June 1,1993, the County Board of Supervisors approved the amended Agreemc
directed that it be distributed to all seventeen city councils with a request th;
consider and act on it by June 22, 1993. Section 2.1 has been revised in the arr
Agreement to provide the Agreement shall take affect on June 22, 1993, by, betwe
among the County and any of the cities that choose to execute the Agreemenl
before that date. The balance of the Agreement remains essentially unchanged fr original version.
In a letter dated May 26, 1993, to the Chair of the County Board of Supervisors,
Lewis explained the reasons behind the City of Carlsbad’s decision not to sign the (
Interim Agreement. The letter indicated it was the City of Carlsbad’s desire to immt
establish an independent Joint Powers Authority (JPA), and if that were not poss
develop a short-term agreement prior to the establishment of the JPA.
In order to continue the dialogue with other agencies, and in recognition of the pi
that has been made to date, Mayor Lewis and Councilmember Nygaard, serving
Council’s sub-committee on solid waste issues, is recommending the City Council a
the amended Interim Agreement with certain conditions. It is recommended the Agrl
be approved on the following conditions:
0 The City of Carlsbad would commit 100% of its trash flow to the
Commission for a three year period.
0 A pay-as-you-go tipping fee would be set by the Board of Supervis
0 A uniform tipping fee would apply to all signers of the Agreement.

If the City Council concurs in this recommendation, it is recommended you ado
attached Resolution, The Resolution approves the Agreement as modified I
conditions outlined in the first Addendum to the Agreement.
FISCAL IMPACT
The Board of Supervisors at its May 18, 1993 meeting, adopted a revised solid
tipping fee of $43 per ton for the next fiscal year, assuming all cities would sign the (
Interim Agreement. It is unclear as to the amount of the tipping fee if all cities do n
the Agreement; however, if the Board of Supervisors approves a pay-as-you-go tippi
it is expected the tipping fee will be at least $65 per ton.
The impact of increases in the tipping fee have been analyzed by Ernst & Young, tt-
firm that has been working with a steering committee of city and County represen
The attached exhibit (6) illustrates the impact of various fee levels on a single
household. A tipping fee of $43 per ton would result in an estimated increase of $2
month. If the tipping fee were to increase to $65 per ton, the increase wc
approximately $4.50 per month. The impact of the tipping increase on Carlsbad re
will be determined when the Council considers a proposed trash rate increase in

Dear Supervisor Bilbray:
The purpose of this letter is to explain the reasons behind the City of Carlsbad’s decisil Sign the Interim Agreement for Solid Waste Management. This was a very difficult de
the Carlsbad City Council. For the past few years, Carlsbad has been intensively inVt
concerned about the solid waste management issue in this County. For a long while,
was viewed only as a North County one. Through extensive efforts of North County
issue is now being addressed on a regional basis. Considerable progress has beer
developing a common level of understanding and developing some consensus on tt
The decision not to approve the Agreement in its present form was particularly diffici
of all the efforts that have been made by the representatives of cities throughout the Cc
deliberations on this issue have forged better relationships amongst all agencies,
confident we can continue working to create an organization that will adequately meet t
The significant concerns about the Agreement involve three broad areas: organizatior
financial concerns; and concerns about strategy. With regard to organizational issues
is very concerned that cities will only have an advisory role, and there is no guar.
broader decision-making role in the future. This situation could continue for as long
years. There is also a concern that a number of sub-regional differences have not beer
which could lead to different fees in different areas of the County and no guarantee o
regionwide fee.
Financial issues involve concerns about the incompleteness of the Capital lmprov
Funding Plan for the County system, making it difficult to determine what the ultimz
the system will be. Carlsbad also feels it is unreasonable to finance the San Marcos
(if it actually does expand), over a period of twenty years, when it only has a pern
seven years. In addition, the Council is concerned about the cost-competitiveness of
system, as compared to other emerging disposal alternatives. This is unknown at 1

With regard to the strategy for any city to pursue, it is premature to commit becs

to offer a positive alternative, the City of Carlsbad would urge immediate establishme

If a short-term agreement is necessary prior to the establishment of the JPA, Carlsba
consider signing such an agreement if it provided: a defined decision-making role for CI
provides for full participation in decision-making; completion of the Capital Improver
Funding Plan; and, a uniform tipping fee.
A short-term agreement that included these provisions might be something that would t
for City Councils to approve.
