BACKGROUND/REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS
On March 26, 1991, the Board of Supervisors authorized the Chair to inform
the cities of the possibility of reducing the AB 939 tipping fee and offer to
continue to collect such revenue on behalf of the cities in lieu of AB 939
fee reduction. The Board also directed staff to develop standards on the
allocation of such revenue for the Board's review.
Staff has worked with the Public Managers Association's Solid Waste Committee
to develop mutually acceptable standards. A draft is scheduled for review by
the City/County Relations Committee on Wednesday, May 8 and the Public
Managers Association (PMA) on Thursday, May 9. The standards recommended by
staff are consistent with the draft developed by the PMA committee and County
staff. The Committee further recommends that the money be allocated
according to the yearly population of the city in comparison to the
population of all participating cities with a proviso that all cities receive
at least $10,000 a year. The population allocation is easily verifiable and
therefore preferable to a split based on solid waste generation by city.
