SPECIFIC REQUESTS) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION
Authorize the implementation of Phase Two of the Recycling Plan-
ping Study.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
County cost of $15 ,000. Funding for this phase of the program
Comes from the Fiscal Year 1985-1986 Solid Waste Planning Fee
paid by landfill operator' s specifically assessed for this
project.
REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND
The Community Development Department has selected Resource Man-
agement Associates (RMA) as the consultant for Phase Two of the
Recycling Program. The second phase of the program involves the
solicitation of proposals from cities and sanitary districts for
assistance in developing specific recycling plans for those com-
munities selected for the program. once three or four cities are
selected from the proposals received, RMA and Community Develop-
ment Department staff will work with each agency by providing
assistance in planning specific recycling programs.
An initial letter was sent out to all cities and other franchis-
ing agencies in the County. The City of Concord was the only
city to respond. Walnut Creek also responded, but their proposal
was submitted after the set deadline date. A second letter was
sent out to ask for additional responses. Two responses were
received, one from the Central Contra Costa Sanitary District and
the other from the City of Richmond. walnut Creek' s proposal
will be considered a response to the second mailing.
The Solid Waste Commission has reviewed Concord' s proposal and
has directed staff to begin with Concord when Phase Two is imple-
mented. The remaining proposals will be reviewed by the solid
Waste Commission at their December 16th meeting.
