111 A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
RANCHO PALOS VERDES DESIGNATING THE 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 YEAR 2021
WHEREAS, the City of Rancho Palos Verdes ("City") currently has commercial
refuse collection agreements with the following seven (7) 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; 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
111 exceptions; and
WHEREAS, the City Council has repeatedly found that opening commercial refuse
services to non-contracted 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
Commercial Haulers than those under contract in accordance with Section 8.20.260 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 presently proposed Commercial Haulers provided timely quarterly
reports and fees, and provided the required proof of valid general liability and workers
compensation insurance during calendar year 2020;
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
RANCHO PALOS VERDES THAT:
1. The following seven solid waste haulers who are currently under contract with
the City pursuant to commercial collection agreements in accordance with
Rancho Palos Verdes Municipal Code Section 8.20.260, and provided required
quarterly reports and insurance documentation are permitted to continue such
agreements and services thereunder in calendar year 2021: California Waste
Services LLC; CalMet Services, Inc.; Consolidated Disposal Service, LLC;
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. A contract amendment extending refuse hauling services with
these Commercial Haulers over the calendar year 2021 is hereby authorized for
execution by the Mayor in a form approved by the City Attorneys' office.
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 year 2021, 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 1st DAY OF DECEMBER 2020.
