FINANCIAL STATEMENT:
The annual sin9le Family Assessment for "Basic
Garbage/Recycl~ng Services", is proposed to be
$104.30. For single Family property owners this
is a 5.4% reduction from the 1993/94 Assessment.
The Multi- Family Recycling cost of service is
proposed to increase for Fiscal Year 1994/95,
based upon a change in the Consumer Price Index.
It is proposed that the city subsidize this
service including offsetting the increase, with
Measure D funds. This will reduce the amount paid
by Multi Family customers for Recycling service to
$0.74 per month per unit.
DESCRIPTION: At the May 9, 1994 city council meeting, the city
council directed staff to revise garbage collection and recycling fees
based upon a plan to utilize Measure D monies to offset a portion of
eligible reCYCling services. As required under state Law a public hearing
must be conducted prior to the city Council taking action on any proposed
fee adjustment.
Single Family Basic Garbage / Recycling services
The City is concluding the first year of a mandatory garbage and recycling
program. This program was implemented to address the fact that the entire
community benefits from having available basic garbage and recycling
collections on a weekly basis. The "Basic Service" includes weekly
collection of one 32 gallon garbage container: weekly curbside collection
of newspapers, glass, tin aluminum, and PET plastic recyclables: and
quarterly special collection of yard debris and other accumulations. The
annual cost for these services is collected on the property Tax Bill and
the city pays the Garbage company. customers requesting additional
services are billed directly by the Company.

In Fiscal Year 1993/94 the city levied an annual assessment of $110.22 per
single family household. The amount of the assessment must include the
following factors:
(1)
Estimated garbage and recycling costs for the entire year. since
the Garbage Rate and the Recycling rate are adJusted on a
calendar year, staff must include estimates of the adjustment
expected in the middle of the Fiscal Year.
costs associated with a third party computer service to produce
the computer listing of all parcels and the appropriate
assessment.
(2)
Alameda County collection costs. The County Tax collector
charges 1.7% of all fees levied on the tax bill.
( 4 ) Estimated delinquencies in property tax payments. The County Tax
Collector does not accept partial property tax payments.
Therefore, the property owner must subJli. t payments including all
fees and assessments. Staff applies an estimated factor for
those owners whose taxes will remain unpaid.
(3)
(5) Projections of any surplus or deficit from the prior year
assessments. staff anticipates that the total fees collected in
1993/94 will exceed costs by approximately $17,000.
Due to the fact that some of these factors are estimates, the final
financial statements may differ.
Proposed Measure D Subsidy To Offset A Portion of Recvcling service Costs
As previously presented to the City council, the City has an opportunity to
reduce the amount paid by consumers for Recycling Services. The current
rate paid for single Family RecyCling Services is $1.37 per month, or
$16.44 per year.. As discussed above this is included. in the "Basic
Service", which is paid for from fees collected on the Property Tax Bill.
Based upon previous City Council direction, it is proposed that the city
subsidize the Single Family Recyclin~ Program by $6.24 per unit per year,
from Measure D Recycling Funds. Th~s will reduce the aJaOunt which will
need to be collected as part of the Property Tax Bill. In effect the
subsidized rate paid directly by the resident is approximately $.85 per
month. In addition, the 1994/95 Fiscal Year Budget provides for 50% of the
computer service costs to be paid for with Measure D funds.
The total annual cost of the Measure D Subsidy to the Single Family Program
is $34,908. This is comprised of $1,100 for the Computer Services and
$33,808 in program costs.
Prooosed 1994/1995 Basic Garbage / Recvcling Collection Fee
For the upcoming Fiscal Year staff is proposing a reduction in the Annual
Assessment. The rate calculations include a provision for rate adjustments
in January 1995. These have been estimated at a 5% increase for garbage
collection / disposal and a 3% increase in Recycling collection costs.
Both of these increases would typically be effective for only half of the
Fiscal Year (January 1 - June 30). Bas~ upon limited data from the
December 1993 property tax collection, staff has asSlDled a 5.5% delinquency
factor. The calculations are shown in Exhibit 1.
The proposed 1994/95 annual assessment is $104.30 per household. This
represents a 5.4% decrease from the 1993/94 annual assessment of $110.22
~r household. The Resolution establiShing the assessment (Exhibit 2) also
~ncludes rates for duplex units, which are factored based upon a single
family residence. In addi1:don to the Measure D subsidy the 1994/95
.
.
assessments assume that approximately $17,000 will be remaining from the
fees collected for 1993/94.
Companv Request For Rate Adjustment To Multi-Family Recycling Proaram
The current agreement with Livermore Dublin Disposal provides for an annual
rate adjustment based upon the change in the ConSUlDer Price Index. The
company began collections in May of 1993 and they were eligible for a rate
adjustment in May of 1994. Based upon the approved indexes the ComPanY is
allowed a 1.3% increase. This would raise the monthly cost from $1.26 per
unit per month to $1.28 per unit per month. Exhibit 3 contains a proposed
revision to the current rate schedule. The only change to this document
is highlighted in Section V (C) I which identifies the MUlti-Family
Recycling monthly rate.
Proposed Measure D Subsidy For MUlti-Family Recycling Proaram
Staff is proposing a modification of the manner in which this program is
funded. Currently the Company is responsible for the collection of the
entire monthly Recycling charges from the mUlti-family units. This is
typically billed as part of their central bin service and is paid on a
monthly basis.
Consistent with the Single family recycling subsidy, staff is also
proposing an equivalent adjustment for the MUlti-Family Recycling program.
staff has prepared the necessary amendments to allow for the City to pay a
~rtion of the Recycling service up to $6.24 per year. This would result
1n the mUlti-family property owners paying a Recycling Charge of $.76 per
uni t per month. This represents a decrease of more than 40% in the monthly
recycling surcharge paid by MUlti-family projects. The total cost to the
city in Measure D funds would be approximately $15,001 per year.
The company delayed their request for increasing the MUlti-Family Recycling
rate. Pursuant to their agreement the adjustBlent from $1.26 per month to
$1.28 per month could have been effective May 1, 1994. If the Company had
adjusted rates on May 1, 1994, the total revenue from the adjustment
attributable to the months of May and June of 1994 would be $96.16 ($.02
per month x 2404 units x 2 months = $96.16). By delaying this request the
city was able to consolidate the item with the rate setting for the annual
Single-Family assessment. The proposed. maendment provides that the City
would pay the company $96.16, representing the increased costs for May and
June from Measure D funds. This eliminates the need for the rate payers to
pay a retroactive adjustment.
The amended agreement will allow the Company to bill the City in semiannual
billings on July 1st and January 1st. The city will be obligated to
forward the monies wi thin 45 days of the receipt of an invoice from the
company. Exhibit 4 is a Resolution, which will adopt an amendment to the
current agreement with Livermore Dublin Disposal. The amendment will also
make a technical change to refer to the Oakland Scavenger Com.pany under
their new name, "waste Management of Alameda County."
Staff recommends that the City Council conduct a public hearing,
deliberate, and adopt the recommended resolutions.

Total Est. Revenue Required from Fees on Property Tax Bill $ 524,383
In order to generate the revenue required, the County Collection Cost
(1.7%) plus an estimated Delinquency Factor (5.5%) must be applied. The
