BACKGROUND/REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS Richmond Sanitary Services' employees are experiencing increasing problems during their work. Because of these problems, Richmond Sanitary Services has requested that jurisdictions consider imposing a surcharge of $50 per month per receptacle to be charged to owners of properties at which repeated incidents have occurred.

Examining the request of RSS as part of any future waste collection rate increase and in cooperation with other jurisdictions in West County could allow us to develop a community-wide approach to such problems. t CONTINUED ON ATTACHMENT: xx YES IGNATURE RECOMMENDATION OF COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR RECOMMENDATION OF BOARD COMMITTEE APPROVE OTHER SIGNATURE(S) : ACTION OF BOARD ON APPROVED AS RECOMMENDED OTHER X VOTE OF SUPERVISORS I HEREBY CERTIFY THAT THIS IS A UNANIMOUS (ABSENT TRUE AND CORRECT COPY OF AN AYES: 7r . 15F 4 TG NOES: ACTION TAKEN AND ENTERED- ON THE ABSENT 7ZZ ABSTAIN: '£ MINUTES OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS ON THE DATE SHOWN.

O 3260 BLUME DRIVE • RICHMOND, CALIFORNIA 94806 A The Honorable Tom Powers, Supervisor September 23, 1993 District 1 100-37th Street Richmond, CA 94805: Dear Tom, You deal with the issue every day. But the ,men on our trucks live with it. And it is getting worse. Crime has made their job.more dangerous. I am writing to ,ask that. .you consider this request to grant a special "hazardous duty" surcharge of $50 per month per receptacle after the police have been called to their properties more than 6 times- in one year for dangerous situations. The surcharge money would be passed along directly to the people collecting garbage at those locationsinthe form of "hazardous-duty" compensation and special training programs. None of -the money would go to Richmond Sanitary Service. As you can see from the attached police reports--all from just one landl.ord- -there are landlords who are obviously and consistently renting their properties to dangerous people. Needles, guns, violent outbursts all pose a threat to our employees . We believe this entitles those workers to "hazardous duty" compensation. In our view, it is only fair that the landlords involved be the one who bear the additional financial obligation. We appreciate your consideration. Sincerely, RIC SANIT Y VICE 747 Richard Granzella President p.s. As we were drafting the enclosed language another one of our trucks was involved in a potentially violent act. On Tuesday morning a route truck was defaced with graffiti while working on its route by two men out of a large group milling around on a street corner. The employees, fearing for their safety, wisely decided not to confront the individuals. The officer following up on the incident was unable to complete his report because he was called away by a local shooting in our service area. MAILING ADDRESS: P.O.
