Council no later than November 2009 as a new Council will be in place by December
2009 and Mr. Ezzet agreed to adjust the schedule accordingly.
Councilman Stern presented the pilot trash program survey which illustrated an
overwhelming success with the automated trash collection program.
Councilman Long, who lives in the pilot area, observed that the program's flexibility
made it overwhelmingly successful. He stated that homes with limited side yards need
several smaller size carts and inquired if food waste recycling was being offered as he
opined that would be important to his decision of supporting once per week or twice per
week.
Mayor Pro Tem Wolowicz clarified that a decision regarding one area of the City did not
eliminate or influence the decision making in other areas and received acknowledgment
from staff that the items are not interdependent.
Discussion between Council, staff, and the consultant included the following topics:
twice a week trash collection vs. once a week pick-up; inclusion of food scrap recycling
in once a week trash collection; a 25% reduction of trash collection vehicle traffic by
introducing once a week pick-up; a rate change for consumers; environmental impacts
and benefit of modernized trash collection trucks; the aesthetic benefit of not having
trash cans on the street twice a week; benefits of automated pick-up and trash cans
with lids attached; coordination of the expiration of the City contract with the trash

Council and staff discussion included the following topics: the rationale behind the
Finance Advisory Committee's (FAC) opinion that the Capital Improvement Plan (CIP)
be limited to 50% of the annual CIP expenditures, not to exceed $3 million, because
they desired to mirror the General Fund Reserve Policy; staff's concern that it could
artificially force the reserves down in lean budget years; establishment of a $3 million
reserve which could be reviewed every year; clarification that the $3 million under
discussion with staff's recommendation was a "rainy day" fund, not the actual CIP; the
process of establishing staff's recommendation for the CIP Reserve; awareness of
inadequate capital spending on infrastructure, including storm drains, arterial streets,
and the Civic Center; the need for criteria to be established to spend the CIP Reserves
when necessary; staff's willingness to change the expenditure plan and accelerate
projects; and, staffs submission to the League of California Cities regarding a series of
projects the City could accelerate.

approximately 6 of the 14 cities reviewed had a CIP Reserve Fund, and different cities
had different variations of this type of fund as well as different terms for it.

threshold to be viewed as the agency's ability to manage risk and a form of risk
management; carefully budgeting to the low end predictions of sales tax revenues;

Fund and the reassessment of that fund during the Two Year Budget or Five Year
Modeling to protect the General Fund from unexpected expenses; the Building
Replacement Fund; and improvements that are needed at City Hall and the prospect of
a non-profit organization to raise funds for necessary improvements to City Hall.

Replacement and Building Improvement Funds at a later time.
