HomeMy WebLinkAboutMINUTES - 06242014 - C.99RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE the 2014/2015 North Richmond Waste and Recovery Mitigation Fee Expenditure Plan (Exhibit A),
which specifies intended activities and respective allocations of Mitigation Fee revenue from July 1, 2014 through
June 30, 2015, as recommended by the North Richmond Waste and Recovery Mitigation Fee Joint Expenditure
Planning Committee.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The proposed action will not impact the County’s General fund. The North Richmond Waste and Recovery
Mitigation Fee Expenditure Plan includes a contingency line item in the budget to address any shortfall in actual
annual revenue. Staff does not anticipate any revenue shortfall, however if the actual revenue does not match or
exceed the amount projected for FY 2014/15, the contingency line item will be sufficient for this purpose.
BACKGROUND:
The Waste & Recovery Mitigation Fee was established in 2003 to mitigate designated impacts resulting from the
expansion of the Bulk Material Processing Center (BMPC) located in North Richmond pursuant to the Use Permits
issued by the County and City of Richmond. Prior to the end of each fiscal year (June 30 th ), approval of an
Expenditure Plan for the next fiscal year is required by both the County Board of Supervisors and Richmond City
Council in order to authorize the use of Waste & Recovery Mitigation Fee funding.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
Summary of Recommended 2014/2015 Expenditure Plan
At the North Richmond Mitigation Fee Committee (NRMFC) meeting on May 30, 2014, the NRMFC voted to
recommend that the County Board of Supervisors and Richmond City Council approve a 2014/2015 Expenditure
Plan that allocates funding for the period between July 1, 2014 through June 30, 2015.
The 2014/2015 Expenditure Plan (EP) allocates funding that is 19% less than the amount allocated in the prior
2013/2014 EP cycle. However, this reduction is primarily due to the absence of the Parks Rehabilitation Initiative
Project ($200,000.00) and the limited number of incomplete Community-Based Projects needing to be rolled over
from the prior Expenditure Plan. Otherwise, a majority of the strategies recommended for funding by the NRMFC
are recommended to receive increases in funding for the 2014/2015 Fiscal Year. The increase in funding is
generally attributed to:
Actual revenue exceeding projected revenue by $12,316.83 under the previous 2012/2013 Expenditure
Plan, the first time in several years this has occurred; and
Unspent funding of $69,098.48 is available from several funded strategies from the previous 2012/2013
Expenditure Plan and $17,272.00 from the current 2013/2014 Expenditure Plan (due to a
Community-Based Project no longer needing their funds).
Funding Allocation Changes Recommended
The funding changes recommended by the NRMFC for the 2014/2015 Expenditure Plan include the following:
100% increase (to $1,500) to fully re-instate funding for the Bulky Item Pick-ups & Disposal Vouchers
Strategy (Strategy 1)
85% increase (to $10,000) to fully fund the Neighborhood Clean-ups Strategy (Strategy 2)
71% increase (to $17,000) to the City/County Right-of-Way Pick-up Strategy (Strategy 4)
5% increase to the Prevention Services Coordinator (Strategy 3), County Code Enforcement (Strategy 5),
Illegal Dumping Law Enforcement – County Sheriff (Strategy 6), Community Services Coordinator
(Strategy 8), and Committee Administration/Staffing
0% change in the level of funding for the Surveillance Cameras (Strategy 7), North Richmond Green
Community Service Programs (Strategy 10), and North Richmond Green Campaign Strategy (Strategy 11)
100% decrease (from $26,666.67) to eliminate the City Code Enforcement Strategy per the City's request
(not in the recommended EP)
After earmarking all other funding allocations, there was a total of $133,899.22 available for Community-Based
Projects. At the direction of the NRMFC, Committee Staff prepared and released a Request for Funding Proposals
in April 2014 to solicit funding allocation requests from non-profit organizations. Proposals were submitted,
evaluated and scored by Committee Staff for consideration by the NRMFC. NRMFC reviewed the Proposals and
staff information and recommended Eight (8) of eleven (11) Proposals for funding.
Of the eight (8) non-profits recommended for funding, the NRMFC recommended that $93,899.22 be allocated to
the Community-Based Project Strategy (Strategy 9) to fund one-time projects within or which serve the specified
North Richmond funding area. Five (5) of the eight (8) Projects being recommended to receive awards fall under
this Strategy.
The NRMFC is recommending that the remaining $40,000.00 be used to create a new Neighborhood Community
Gardens Project Strategy (Strategy 12) to fund the on-going maintenance and up-keep of existing Community
Gardens in the funding area. The funding under this Strategy is recommended to be allocated among three (3)
Neighborhood Garden Projects.
The next NRMFC meeting is scheduled for February 20, 2015, where discussions regarding the projected future
revenue, potential 2013/2014 Expenditure Plan roll-over funding and planned use of funds for 2015/2016 fiscal
year will begin.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Each new Expenditure Plan must receive final approval from the County Board of Supervisors and Richmond
City Council. The Expenditure Plan recommended by the NRMFC would not take effect, even if/when approved
by the Richmond City Council, unless and until it is also approved by the Board of Supervisors. Therefore, if the
2014/2015 Expenditure Plan is not approved by the Board prior to July 1, 2014 a vast majority of the previously
approved strategies (activities) could not continue to be funded and implemented without interruption. If both the
City and County do not approve the same Expenditure Plan, the City and County have the right to split the NRMF
revenue pursuant to the terms of the Memorandum Of Understanding between the City and County.
CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:
Not applicable.

North Richmond Waste & Recovery Mitigation Fee
2014/15 Expenditure Plan
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 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.
Activities which can be funded in this Expenditure Plan period with the Mitigation Fee amounts
specified within this Expenditure Plan are described herein as “Strategies” or “Staff Costs”.
Strategies are categorized as either “Core Services” or “Supplemental Enhancements”. Core
Services includes the higher funding priority strategies that most directly address the intended
purpose of this City/County approved Mitigation Fee, “to defray annual costs associated with
collection and disposal of illegally dumped waste and associated impacts in North Richmond”.
All references to the “Mitigation Fee Primary Funding Area” or “Mitigation Fee Funding Area”
pertain to the geographic area shown in the attached map (Attachment 5).

(unless otherwise specified herein)

2014/2015 Expenditure Plan - North Richmond Waste & Recovery Mitigation Fee
Page 2 of 12
BUDGET
The funding allocation amounts included in this document apply to the Expenditure Plan Period
specified on the first page unless otherwise specified herein. The total amount of funding
allocated in the Expenditure Plan Budget is based on revenue projections provided by the
BMPC operator, Republic Service, which 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). Actual Mitigation Fee revenue may deviate from revenue
projections provided by Republic and used to prepare this Budget. A “Contingency” line item is
included in the Budget to help accommodate variations between projected and actual revenue.
Excess funding allocated to strategies and not expended by the end of each Expenditure Plan
period is treated as “roll-over” funding for reallocation in a subsequent Expenditure Plan period.
The Budget includes some line items that are based on fixed costs, however there are other line
items which are scalable and/or dependant on utilization thereby providing flexibility to
reallocate amounts if and when a significant need is identified. Allocated funding may remain
unspent due to under-utilization of a particular program. If the amount allocated to a particular
line item is determined to exceed needs based upon usage, the remaining funding can only be
reallocated by officially amending the Expenditure Plan. 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.
Annual fiscal year Expenditure Plan cycle is expected to reduce margin of error of Mitigation
Fee revenue projects, streamline financial reconciliation/budgeting process and minimize need
to amend Expenditure Plans mid-cycle. Amending Expenditure Plans involve administrative
burden and costs due to the joint approval needed from both the Richmond City Council and
County Board of Supervisors. 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.
