CITY COUNCIL, CITY OF SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, STATE OF CALIFORNIA
A RESOLUTION ACCEPTING AN INCREASE IN REFUSE
COLLECTION RATES EFFECTIVE JULY 1, 2003 AS SUBMITTED BY
THE SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO SCAVENGER COMPANY AND
AMENDING THE FRANCHISE AGREEMENT TO APPROVE AN
INCREASE IN THE FRANCHISE FEE
WHEREAS, the City Council approved a new franchise agreement with the South San
Francisco Scavenger Company; and
WHEREAS, under the terms of the 1997 agreement, the pending July 2003 rate adjustment,
and every third year rate adjustment thereafter, is to be based on a survey of 32 specific cities' refuse
rates; and
WHEREAS, the agreement stipulates that 95% of the average of the 32 cities' rates be the
maximum amount of the increase; and
WHEREAS, the 95% fee level has been verified by Finance staff, and a complete fee
schedule is attached hereto as Exhibit A; and
WHEREAS, the City Council has determined that the City budget will be favorably impacted
if the solid waste franchise fee paid by the South San Francisco Scavenger Company be adjusted
from 7% to 10%; and
WHEREAS, the volume of City solid waste generated at the Treatment Plant has increased
significantly since the franchise agreement with the South San Francisco Scavenger Company was
approved in 1997, which has increased costs to the Scavengers; and
WHEREAS, an amendment to the franchise agreement dated July 9, 1997 is needed to
increase the franchise fee and to authorize the South San Francisco Scavenger Company to charge
the Treatment Plant for solid waste pickup services.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of South San
Francisco that the City Council hereby approves the increase in the solid waste disposal and
collection fees as shown in Exhibit A, as well as authorizes the City Manager to approve a midyear
fee increase of not to exceed 0.55%, if the County of San Mateo increases landfill charges to the
Scavenger Company before July 1, 2004; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT THE CITY COUNCIL authorizes the City Manager
to sign an amendment to the franchise agreement for collection and disposal of solid waste matter
in the City of South San Francisco to: 1) adjust the franchise fee from 7% to 10%, as contained in
section 4.1 of the agreement; 2) authorize the Scavenger Company to charge the City's Treatment
Plant for solid waste pickup and disposal services.
I hereby certify that the foregoing Resolution was regularly introduced and adopted by the
City Council of the City of South San Francisco at a regular meeting held on the 11th day of June
