RESOLUTION ADJUSTING RATES FOR COMMERCIAL AND
RESIDENTIAL SOLID WASTE FRANCHISES
Public Works
RECOMMENDED ACTION
City Council adopt a resolution for the Seventh Amendment to the Agreement Between the
City of Santa Clarita and Burrtec Waste Industries, Inc. for Commercial Solid Waste
Management Services allowing an increase in rates by 3.95 percent based on the formula
outlined in their Franchise Agreement, subject to City Attorney approval.
2. Adopt a resolution for the Third Amendment to the Agreement Between the City of Santa
Clarita and USA Waste of California, Inc. (dba Blue Barrel Disposal) for Residential Solid
Waste Management Services allowing an increase in their rates by 3.95 percent based on the
formula outlined in their Franchise Agreement, subject to City Attorney approval.
3. Authorize the appropriation of $50,000 to Expenditure Account 14601-5161.002, and
increase Revenue Account 100-4621.001 by $50,000.
BACKGROUND
In November 2003, the City Council selected Burrtec Waste Industries, Inc., as the exclusive
solid waste hauler for commercial waste services, and USA Waste of California, Inc. (dba Blue
Barrel Disposal) as the exclusive solid waste hauler for residential waste services. Pursuant to
Section 6.3 of the Agreement Between the City of Santa Clarita and Burrtec Waste Industries,
Inc. for Commercial Solid Waste Management Services and the Agreement Between the City of
Santa Clarita and USA Waste of California, Inc. (dba Blue Barrel Disposal) for Residential Solid
Waste Management Services (Franchise Agreements), Burrtec and Blue Barrel may request rate
increases for the next rate year (in this case July 1, 2008, through June 30, 2009) if each hauler
submits a request for the increase by the first of April, and follows the specific guidelines for a
peso. 0 �-.N q
Adopted._ �. o k -so
rate increase as outlined in Section 6.4 of the Franchise Agreements. The attachments illustrate
proposed changes to the commercial and residential collection rates. Pursuant to Section 6.3 of
the Franchise Agreements, City Council's discretion for regular rate increases is limited to
determining, based on substantial evidence, whether the requested maximum rate adjustment
meets the requirements as set forth in the Franchise Agreements.
Attached is a summary of the Method of Adjustment for this rate increase described in Section
6.4, the resulting calculations following the formula, and a matrix outlining the resulting
maximum rate changes. Based on the formula, the rate increase for Fiscal Year 2008/2009 will
be 3.95 percent, which is less than the annual rate cap of five percent. If approved by City
Council, staff will work with the haulers in providing proper notification of the rate increase to
their customers, and the new rate structure would begin on July 1, 2008. The rate increase will
not affect the diversion programs currently provided by the haulers.
Additionally, each hauler requested an extraordinary adjustment to pursue a supplemental
increase. Pursuant to Section 8.3.5 of the Franchise Agreements, the City may request an audit of
the financial records for each of the haulers in connection with an extraordinary rate adjustment.
When the results of the financial audit is made available, staff will evaluate both extraordinary
rate increase requests and will present the requests in detail to the Solid Waste Diversion
Subcommittee. This would be done before presenting an item to the City Council for
consideration during a subsequent City Council meeting.
ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS
Other action as determined by the City Council.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no cost to the City as a result of this action. Per the Franchise Agreements, the cost for
the preparation of the financial statements and the audit of financial records shall be borne by the
respective Franchisee.

2008 COMMERCIAL AND RESIDENTIAL WASTE HAULERS
RATE ADJUSTMENT REQUEST METHODOLOGY
In compliance with Section 6.3 of the Franchise Agreements, both the Residential and Commercial waste
haulers have requested a rate increase for the 2008/2009 fiscal year. The formula for determining a rate
increase is outlined in Section 6.4 of the Franchise Agreements as follows:

Total

Pursuant to the instructions in the Franchise Agreements, the differences in the indices are determined
based on the period of December 2006 through December 2007. According to the Franchise Agreements,
the resulting percentage change caps at five percent.
CHANGE IN CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM
Since the Franchise Agreements were written, some changes had to be incorporated in the rate adjustment
calculation. The United States Department of Labor — Bureau of Labor Statistics made a change in how
they labeled certain Producer Price Indices. In the past, they used the Standard Industrial Classification
(SIC) system to label the indices, but recently, have made the shift from SIC codes to the North American
Industry Classification System (NAICS). Therefore, the Producer Price Index (PPI) for Labor and the PPI
for Equipment no longer exists in the format outlined in the Franchise Agreement.
Per Waste Management's request, Hilton . Farnkopf & Hobson contacted the Department of Labor to
determine the most appropriate factors for replacing the previous ones. The PPI labeled as PCU4212#2,
Local trucking without storage, Waste collection was replaced with PCU5621,1-56211 Waste Collection.
The PPI labeled as PCU3713#139, Truck and bus bodies, Refuse and garbage (packer type) was replaced
with PCU336211336211 Motor Vehicle Body Manufacturing.

Staff calculated the proposed rate increase based on the above information and came up with the

SOLID WASTE FRANCHISE AGREEMENTS
LIST OF AMENDMENTS
Since the commencement of the Residential and Commercial Solid Waste Franchise
Agreements, staff has worked with the City's haulers to ensure that the programs and services
outlined in the Agreements are implemented in a timely fashion. The matrix below summarizes
existing amendments to both Franchise Agreements that have been approved by the City
Council. The primary goal of the amendments was to set new deadlines for the implementation
of new waste diversion programs and to adjust maximum collection rates.
