Title
Resolution Approving Designation of the Alameda County Source Reduction and Recycling Board as the Local Task Force Under State Law for the Purpose of Reviewing and Commenting on County Integrated Waste Management Plan Amendments
Body
WHEREAS, California Public Resources Code Section 40950 requires the creation of a Local Task Force (LTF) to comment on possible County Integrated Waste Management Plan amendments and to otherwise provide non-binding guidance with respect to integrated solid waste planning, and
WHEREAS, the Alameda County Waste Management Authority (ACWMA), via Section 5.g. of the Joint Powers Agreement (JPA) creating it, is empowered to make replacement appointments to the LTF, subject to approval by the County Board of Supervisors and a double majority of the Cities in the County, and
WHEREAS, the ACWMA has appointed the Alameda County Source Reduction and Recycling Board as the LTF, as an efficiency improving measure in government (doing so consolidated a committee of the ACWMA with the LTF, eliminating the need for separate committee and task force meetings), pending approval by the County and a double majority of the Cities in the County, and
WHEREAS, the Alameda County Charter Subsection 64.130.C., states that in order to avoid unnecessary administrative duplication the County Board of Supervisors shall seek the consent of a double majority of the Cities for the Alameda County Recycling Board to serve as the LTF, but in the event such appointment does not occur, the Recycling Board shall review any recommendations of the LTF regarding source reduction and recycling.
NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of San Leandro does RESOLVE as follows:
That the designation of the Alameda County Source Reduction and Recycling Board as the Local Task Force is hereby approved.
