Home My WebLink AboutMINUTES - 06222010 - C.107RECOMMENDATION(S): APPROVE the Amended 2010/2011 North Richmond Waste and Recovery Mitigation Fee Expenditure Plan which specifies recommended allocations of projected mitigation fee revenue in 2010/2011 to fund implementation of specified strategies as well as related staff costs incurred by City of Richmond and County related to the development, implementation and oversight of the two-year Expenditure Plan. FISCAL IMPACT: No impact to the County General Fund. The 2010/2011 Amended North Richmond Waste and Recovery Mitigation Fee Expenditure Plan (see Exhibit A) is based on projected revenue from mitigation fee charged on material and waste processed at the Bulk Material Processing Center (BMPC) located at the West Contra Costa Sanitary Landfill (WCCSL). The Expenditure Plan budget specifies how to allocate a total of $2,207,042 in expected mitigation fee revenue for calendar years 2010 and 2011 (based on $1,177,661 in projected 2010/2011 revenue according to Republic Services Inc. and $1,029,281 in unexpended revenue from calendar years 2008/2009).

ATTESTED: June 22, 2010 David J. Twa, County Administrator and Clerk of the Board of Supervisors By: June McHuen, Deputy cc: C.107 To:Board of Supervisors From:Catherine Kutsuris, Conservation & Development Director Date:June 22, 2010 Contra Costa County Subject:Amended 2010/2011 North Richmond Waste & Recovery Mitigation Fee Expenditure Plan BACKGROUND: The Waste & Recovery Mitigation Fee was established as a result of the Draft Environmental Impact Report (EIR) dated November 2003 for the WCCSL Bulk Materials Processing Center (BMPC) and Related Actions (Project). The Project involved new and expanded processing and resource recovery operations on both the incorporated and unincorporated area of the Project site, which the EIR concluded would impact the host community. To mitigate this impact Mitigation Measure 4-5 called for a Mitigation Fee to benefit the host community, described as follows: “Mitigation Fee. The facility operator shall pay a Mitigation Fee of an amount to be determined by the applicable permitting authority(ies) to defray annual costs associated with collection and disposal of illegally dumped waste and associated impacts in North Richmond and adjacent areas. The mitigation fee should be subject to the joint-control of the City and County and should be collected on all solid waste and processible materials received at the facility consistent with the existing mitigation fee collected at the Central IRRF.” In July 2004, the City of Richmond and Contra Costa County entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) agreeing to jointly administer Mitigation Fee monies collected from the BMPC for the benefit of the incorporated and unincorporated North Richmond area. The MOU requires that the mitigation fee revenue collected from the Operator (WCCSL, Inc.) be paid to the County and held in a dedicated separate account. The North Richmond Mitigation Fee Committee (NRMFC) was formed pursuant to the terms of the MOU for the specific purpose of preparing a recommended two year Expenditure Plan. The Committee consists of three Richmond City Council persons, two North Richmond Municipal Advisory Council members; one incorporated North Richmond resident and County Supervisor John Gioia. This Expenditure Plan provides a means to jointly administer the Mitigation Fee funding for the benefit of the host community, as described in the EIR. The Mitigation Fee Committee approved utilizing a phased approach to develop the 2010/2011 Expenditure Plan. Development and approval of a 2010/2011 Preliminary Expenditure Plan budget (Phase 1) was based solely on the amount of Mitigation Fee funding expected to be collected in calendar years 2010 and 2011 projections which was estimated to be a total of $1,177,611. The Committee considered and approved the Preliminary 2010/2011 Expenditure Plan and budget (Phase 1) at their meeting on October 26, 2009, and the City Council and the Board of Supervisors both approved the Preliminary Plan at their December 15, 2009 meetings. At their meeting on May 3, 2010, the North Richmond Waste and Recovery Mitigation Fee Committee voted to recommend that the City of Richmond City Council and Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors approve the Amended 2010/2011 Expenditure Plan Costa County Board of Supervisors approve the Amended 2010/2011 Expenditure Plan on May 3, 2010. Phase 2 included the development of an Amended Preliminary 2010/2011 Expenditure Plan to allocate the amount of unexpended funding remaining from the 2008/2009 Expenditure Plan budget, which is $1,029,381. Phase 2 allocations provide new or supplemental funding for strategies that were either unfunded or under funded during Phase 1. Staff received input from Committee members; City and County staff, as well as from mitigation-funded contractors regarding the activities and associated funding amounts desired to be included under specific strategies. A substantial portion of the Phase 2 funding to be allocated in this 2010/2011 Amended Expenditure Plan is recommended to be allocated to Strategy 14, which actually includes funding for nine separate community-based projects which where selected by the NRMFC at their meeting on May 3, 2010 (for listing see Exhibit B). CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION: CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT: ATTACHMENTS Attachment A Attachment B North Richmond Waste & Recovery Mitigation Fee Amended 2010/2011 Expenditure Plan INTRODUCTION The Waste & Recovery Mitigation Fee was established as a result of the Draft Environmental Impact Report (EIR) dated November 2003 for the WCCSL Bulk Materials Processing Center (BMPC) and Related Actions (Project). The Project involved new and expanded processing and resource recovery operations on both the incorporated and unincorporated area of the Project site, which the EIR concluded would impact the host community. To mitigate this impact Mitigation Measure 4-5 called for a Mitigation Fee to benefit the host community, described as follows: “Mitigation Fee. The facility operator shall pay a Mitigation Fee of an amount to be determined by the applicable permitting authority(ies) to defray annual costs associated with collection and disposal of illegally dumped waste and associated impacts in North Richmond and adjacent areas. The mitigation fee should be subject to the joint-control of the City and County and should be collected on all solid waste and processible materials received at the facility consistent with the existing mitigation fee collected at the Central IRRF.” In July 2004, the City of Richmond and Contra Costa County entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) agreeing to jointly administer Mitigation Fee monies collected from the BMPC for the benefit of the incorporated and unincorporated North Richmond area. This North Richmond Waste & Recovery Mitigation Fee Joint Expenditure Planning Committee (Committee) was formed pursuant to the terms of the MOU for the specific purpose of preparing a recommended two year Expenditure Plan. This Expenditure Plan provides a means to jointly administer the Mitigation Fee funding for the benefit of the host community, as described in the EIR. The Expenditure Plan is subject to final approval of the Richmond City Council and the Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors. By approving this Expenditure Plan, the City Council and Board of Supervisors authorize the use of Mitigation Fee funding for only the purposes and in the amounts specified herein. The City and County have each designated their respective staff persons responsible for administering the development and implementation of the approved Expenditure Plan, which includes responsibility for drafting and interpreting Expenditure Plan language. However, the City and County have not delegated to the Committee or to staff the authority to expend funding for purposes not clearly identified in the Expenditure Plan document officially approved by their respective decision-making bodies. BUDGET The funding allocations shown on the Expenditure Plan Budget table are based on revenue estimates that are dependant upon multiple variables (e.g. number of tons of recovered materials vs. solid waste, per ton gate rate charged and amount of CPI- adjusted per ton Mitigation Fee). Revenue projections may deviate from those provided by Republic and used to prepare this Budget. It is likely that some adjustments will be necessary to accommodate variations between estimated and actual revenue as well as Amended 2010/2011 Expenditure Plan - North Richmond Waste & Recovery Mitigation Fee Page 2 of 9 disparity between estimated and actual costs for non-fixed cost strategies. Adjustments may be needed due to under-utilization of a particular program if estimated expenditure was based on per unit cost. If the number of units allocated to a particular line item is not determined to be needed based upon usage, the remaining funding could be redistributed by officially amending the Expenditure Plan.. The Budget includes some line items that are based on fixed costs, however generally there are other line items which are scalable and/or dependant on utilization thereby providing flexibility to adjust amount allocated if and when a significant need is identified. This Expenditure Plan may only be adjusted upon official action taken by both the City and County. Although there has been some interest in allowing flexibility for staff to adjust funding allocations under specific circumstances, the authority to approve or modify the Expenditure Plan rests solely with the City Council and Board of Supervisors. The two-year Expenditure Plan cycle was established by the City and County to minimize the administrative burden and costs associated with having to go through a joint budget approval process more than once every two years. In order to minimize the amount of funding needed to cover staff costs incurred to amend the Expenditure Plan, staff will only recommend changes to the Expenditure Plan when necessary to address a significant and time-sensitive need.
