�� 3. Section 8.5 dealing with the chairperson of the SBWMA has been revised: (a) With the Executive Director coming on board, all of the "executive duties" of the Chair have been eliminated; (b) The San Carlos City Manager has, by agreement of the Member Agencies, been the Chair of the SBTSA since 1982. It was felt this tradition was no longer needed and that the chair should be selected (annually) by the Board from the Members at large. 4. Section 8.7 - Finance Director. This has been a paid part-time contracted position because of the work involved. Reference to "without compensation" is being deleted, as it is not consistent with the way this position has actually been handled. 5. Section 8.10 - Executive Director, with a list of typical executive duties, is added. The above are the major changes. Other "cleanup language" changes are shown in the attached Exhibit A by strike outs and/or underline. None are substantive. Please note that under the SBWMA existing JPA Agreement, Section 10.8, it takes a 2/3rds vote of all of the Member Agencies to amend the JPA Agreement. The amendments to the JPA Agreement will not take effect until they have been approved by 2/3rds of the Members of the JPA. Action Taken by Other Members As of December 7, the West Bay Sanitary District and the City of Belmont voted not to approve the revised JPA agreement. The cities of Atherton, Foster City, Menlo Park, San Carlos, and San Mateo have approved the agreement. The County of San Mateo Board of Supervisors had this item on their December 6 agenda, but continued it to January. It is our understanding that West Bay and Belmont did not approve the agreement because it does not provide for the Board to be composed of elected officials. Alternative The City Council may reject the recommendation. However, as noted above, if 2/3rds of all Member Agencies vote to amend the JPA Agreement, the First Amended and Restated Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement will take effect. Fiscal Impact Approval of the First Amended and Restated Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement for South Bayside Waste Management Authority will have no direct fiscal impact on the City as all costs associated with the SBWMA are borne by the solid waste rate payers. As the First Amended and Restated Join Exercise of Powers Agreement contains the new position of Executive Director of the SBWMA, there will be a slight increase in the rates paid by the solid waste rate payers which is estimated to be approximately .18% or $.34 per year for an average solid waste customer. 3
