Long-Term Ti 7.1.D. - Page 33 <br /> Implemented after MRP Effective Date and Prior to July 1,2014: <br /> • The City's Public Works Services Department continued having one part-time employee <br /> patrol and remove trash and large items five days/week throughout the City during this <br /> time period.The City tracks the volume of trash collected from all on-land cleanups <br /> conducted by City staff. <br /> • The City's Public Works Services Department continued using individuals provided by the <br /> County's Sheriffs Work Program to conduct on-land cleanups within the City during the <br /> time period. <br /> • On-land cleanup activities conducted by school personnel and students continued at <br /> schools during the time period.The City did not implement additional on-land cleanups <br /> during this time period since existing on-land cleanup efforts are adequately addressing <br /> trash loads at schools. <br /> Planned for Future Implementation between July 2014 and July 2022: <br /> • The City's Public Works Services Department will continue having one part-time employee <br /> patrol and remove trash and large items (e.g., mattresses, furniture,etc.) from City right-of- <br /> way and other illegal dumping areas five days/week throughout the City during this <br /> time period. <br /> • The City's Public Works Services Department will continue using individuals provided by <br /> the County's Sheriffs Work Program to conduct on-land cleanups within the City during <br /> this time period.The use of individuals provided by the County's Sheriffs Work Program <br /> has been a useful resource to supplement the City's current on-land cleanup efforts. <br /> • Existing on-land cleanup activities conducted by school personnel and students will <br /> continue at schools during this time period.The City has no additional on-land cleanups <br /> planned at schools since existing on-land cleanup efforts are an adequate level of effort to <br /> achieve"no adverse impact".The trash condition of schools will be confirmed via <br /> assessments described in Section 4.0. <br /> ■IMPROVED TRASH BIN/CONTAINER MANAGEMENT <br /> Implemented Prior to and Continued After MRP Effective Date: <br /> • The City's trash hauler, Recology maintains approximately 100 public trash bins <br /> throughout the City,with the majority of bins located within the downtown area.Trash is <br /> removed from public trash bins six days/week(except Sunday)within the downtown <br /> area,and one to three times/week at all other locations.Additional trash collection <br /> occurs by request. Recology is not aware of any chronic overflowing bins within the City. <br /> • Prior to the effective date of the MRP,the City has worked and will continue to work with <br /> Recology to identify businesses and residents that do not subscribe to adequate trash <br /> collection service (i.e.,insufficient trash collection or use of bins which are too small).This <br /> is important since businesses and residents may try to use the public trash bins to dispose <br /> of their trash rather than subscribe to adequate trash service.The implementation of this <br /> monitoring program has likely reduced trash levels in public trash bins within the City <br /> resulting in fewer overflowing trash bins. <br /> • Cigarette butt litter is the most prevalent trash type (by number count) observed on City <br /> streets and sidewalks. Prior to the effective date of the MRP,the City did not add specialty <br /> 25 <br />
