Projects implemented by cities and counties will assist in reaching
and maintaining this goal.
The Public Works Branch, Environmental Management Department, wishes to continue
utilitizing available funding to support these programs, and with City Counci l's approval, will
apply for, accept and appropriate payment program funding through CalRecycle for a period of
five years from the date of resolution adoption.
Funding will be used on qualified expenditures in an effort to increase awareness through
education and outreach to the community, increase availabilty of recycling opportunities, and
pay for staff time related to program management.
Cal Recycle is required to establish procedures governing administration of the payment
programs. Their procedures require an applicant's governing body to declare by resolution
certain authorizations related to administration of the payment program. With City Council's
approval, the Deputy City Manager, Public Works, or designee will be authorized to execute all
necessary forms for payment programs through Cal Recycle.
Fiscal Analysis
Cal Recycle payment programs require that the funds be expended within the 24-month term of
the program. Any unused funds must be returned to Cal Recycle within 45 days of the end of the
term. If the city's applications are approved for payment by Cal Recycle, funds are normally
received annually in April for the Used Oil Payment Program, and in October for the Beverage
Container Recycling Payment Program .
The table below shows a summary of payments received by the city in the last five fiscal years
from the CalRecycle Beverage Container Recycling Payment Program:
Program Year Beverage Container Recycling Payment Program
2018-19 $28,231
2017-18 $28,347
2016-17 $28,339
2015-16 $28,166
2014-15 $29,160
