SUBJECT: Traffic Effects of Ordinance Requiring Licensed „�
Haulers to Collect Refuse
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION
Accept report from Director of Community Development concerning
traffic impacts of ordinance requiring the hiring of licensed
haulers to collect refuse.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
None.
REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND
On June 14, 1988, the Board adopted an ordinance which requires
the hiring of licensed haulers to collect refuse. The Board
adopted this ordinance in order to exercise some control over
individual refuse haulers who are contributing to increased
litter and illegal dumping. By requiring licenses to haul
garbage, these independent haulers will be subject to regulation
by the Board through the County Department of Health Services.
It was brought to the Board' s attention that there are many
individuals and companies that are hauling refuse without
obtaining the required County license.
On June % , 1988 , the Board concurred with the recommendation from
Supervisor Torlakson that the Community Development Department
provide the Board with a "traffic study plan" on this matter.
The ordinance may have an affect on who hauls refuse. Licensed
haulers may receive more business than those who are not licens-
ed. Our department does not anticipate that additional traffic
will be generated by this ordinance. we also do not feel that
there will be any change in transportation routes used by the
haulers. Therefore, we conclude that there will be no traffic
impacts due to this ordinance.
