CC RES 2022-004 RESOLUTION NO. 2022-04
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 FROM COMMERCIAL
PREMISES, AND ROLL OFF SERVICES TO RESIDENTIAL
AND COMMERCIAL PREMISES IN THE CITY OF RANCHO
PALOS VERDES IN CALENDAR YEAR 2022.
WHEREAS, in calendar year 2021, the City of Rancho Palos Verdes ("City") had
commercial refuse collection franchise agreements with seven 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.
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.
WHEREAS, the City Council finds that opening commercial refuse services to non-
contracted Commercial Haulers would overburden the streets and create traffic problems,
potentially damage the pavement, and would be difficult in efficiently- monitoring and
reporting commercial and roll off disposal and recycling tonnage, and public education
activities.
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.
WHEREAS, the existing Commercial Haulers provided timely quarterly reports and
fees, and provided the required proof of valid general liability and workers compensation
insurance during calendar year 2021.
WHEREAS, the City Council finds 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 damage the road, and would increase the
difficulty of efficiently monitoring and reporting commercial and roll off disposal and
recycling tonnage, and public education activities.
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
RANCHO PALOS VERDES THAT:
1. The City Council finds that the above recitals are true and correct, and
incorporates them herein by reference.
2. 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 2022: 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 2022 is hereby authorized for
execution by the Mayor in a form approved by the City Attorney's office.
3. 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 2022, 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 18th DAY OF JANUARY 18, 2022.
