� I `�!� - � <br /> . <br /> landfill disposal fee decrease, and the $11.6 million payment are atl dependent on the <br /> approval by each member agency of a four-year extension of their Franchise Collection <br /> Services Agreement. <br /> The balance of the members of the SBWMA entity has approved the extension of their <br /> Collection Agreements until December 31, 2010. <br /> The SBW MA also voted 11-0-1 (the County abstained due to the County's "no" vote on <br /> the Disposal Agreement) to approve a resolution directing SBWMA staff to begin the work <br /> necessary to prepare a request for proposals (RFP) for solid waste and recycling collection <br /> services. The RFP will be issued so that the selected contractor can commence services <br /> on January 1, 2011. <br /> The SBW MA Board voted 10-2 at its April 28, 2005 meeting to allocate these funds back to <br /> each member in proportion to the total sold waste tonnage disposed of by each member <br /> entity at the transfer station in 2004. Redwood City's share of this amount will be $2.4 <br /> million which will be paid over a three ye�r period beginning March 2006. Staff will be <br /> consulting with the City Attorne�� and legal counsel from the SBWMA to understand the <br /> parameters within which these funds may be used and will present the Council with options <br /> for using these funds. <br /> Budge4 Impa�t � <br /> The extension of the Franchise Collection Services Agreemen± does not impact the City's <br /> finances as BFI ser�ices are funded through- solid waste collection fees paid by system <br /> subscribers. Customer rates might be reduced slightly over the next several years due to <br /> the decreased disposal rate at the landfill. The fifteen Disposal Agreement means <br /> long certainty and more control of disposal costs which account for abo.ut 35% of a <br /> typical residential garbage bill. The four extensions of the Franchise Collection <br /> Services Ac�reement a�d the Operating Agreement will allow time to competitively bid the <br /> agreements. <br /> '�� % / , � � � <br /> ; <br /> � ��. - �, <br /> �, ; ; � <br /> , ; , �. <br /> � ;. �� ��� <br /> Brian Ponty Edward Everett ' <br /> Director of Finance and Financial Planning City Manager <br /> Attachment <br /> Findings Report: BFI Performance Hearing Findings <br /> Ordinance <br />
