A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
RANCHO PALOS VERDES LIMITING THE NUMBER OF
HAULERS AUTHORIZED TO PROVIDE SOLID WASTE
COLLECTION AND RECYCLING SERVICES TO COMMERCIAL
PREMISES, AND ROLL OFF SERVICES TO RESIDENTIAL AND
COMMERCIAL PREMISES IN THE CITY OF RANCHO PALOS
VERDES IN CALENDAR YEARS 2016-2017.
WHEREAS, the City of Rancho Palos Verdes ("City") currently has collection
agreements with eight (8) solid waste haulers to provide solid waste collection and
recycling services to commercial premises and on-call roll off services to commercial and
residential premises ("Commercial Haulers"): California Waste Services LLC; CalMet
Services, Inc.; Consolidated Disposal Service, LLC; Easy Roll Off Services; EDCO
Disposal Corporation; Universal Waste Systems, Inc.; USA Waste of California, Inc., dba
Waste Management of Los Angeles; and West Coast Waste & Roll Off Service; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 8.20.260 of the City of Rancho Palos Verdes
Municipal Code, and to improve monitoring and reporting of commercial and roll off
disposal and recycling tonnage, and public education activities, only parties to a collection
agreement with the City may collect and dispose of solid waste in the City, with limited
exceptions; and
WHEREAS, on November 18, 2014, the City Council of the City of Rancho Palos
Verdes adopted Resolution No. 2014-75, limiting the number of Commercial Haulers in
calendar year 2015 to eight; and
WHEREAS, the City Council, in adopting Resolution No. 2014-75, found that more
than eight Commercial Haulers would overburden the streets and create traffic problems,
as well as potentially damaging the pavement, and would increase the difficulty of
efficiently monitoring and reporting commercial and roll off disposal and recycling
tonnage, and public education activities; and
WHEREAS, the City Council has considered the ongoing impact of Commercial
Haulers on City streets, including their impact on traffic, as well as monitoring and
reporting, and public education activities; and
WHEREAS, the City Council has determined that it is still the case that having
more than eight Commercial Haulers would overburden the streets and create traffic
problems, as well as potentially damaging the pavement, and would increase the difficulty
of efficiently monitoring and reporting commercial and roll off disposal and recycling
tonnage, and public education activities; and
WHEREAS, all eight Commercial Haulers provided timely quarterly reports and
fees, and provided the required proof of valid general liability and workers compensation
insurance during calendar year 2015;
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF RANCHO PALOS VERDES THAT:
1. The following eight solid waste haulers who entered into commercial collection
agreements in calendar year 2015 and provided required quarterly reports and
insurance documentation are permitted to enter into such agreements in
calendar years 2016-2017: California Waste Services LLC; CalMet Services,
Inc.; Consolidated Disposal Service, LLC; Easy Roll Off Services; EDCO
Disposal Corporation; Universal Waste Systems, Inc.; USA Waste of California,
Inc., dba Waste Management of Los Angeles; and West Coast Waste & Roll
Off Service.
2. No other solid waste haulers will be authorized to collect solid waste and
recyclables from commercial premises, or provide roll off services to
commercial and residential premises in the City in calendar years 2016-2017,
except as provided in the City's Municipal Code Chapter 8.20 and any contract
executed between the City and any Commercial Hauler.
PASSED, APPROVED, AND ADOPTED THE 15th DAY OF MARCH, 2016.
