TO: City Council
FROM: Recycling Coordinator VIA Director of Redevelopment
AMENDMENT#1 TO CONTRACT WITH CURBSIDE, INC. FOR RECYCLING AND/OR
DISPOSAL OF HAZARDOUS MATERIALS COLLECTED FROM CITY FACILITIES
RECOMMENDATION:
That the City Council approve Amendment#1 to the contract with Curbside, Inc., a Safety
Kleen Company, to recycle and/or dispose of hazardous materials collected from City facilities
at a reduced rate.
SUMMARY:
This amendment will make it possible for all the hazardous materials that have been
accumulating at City facilities over the past few years to be recycled and disposed of in a safe
manner. Curbside, Inc. has a contract with the City to handle a program funded by a grant
from the California Integrated Waste Management Board providing free pick up of household
hazardous waste from our qualified senior/disabled residents. This action amends this
contract to allow a one-time pick up of the City's hazardous materials, not to exceed $4,000
and funded by the City's recycling fund.
BACKGROUND:
On December 23, 1999, the City Council approved a contract with Curbside, Inc., a Safety
Kleen Company (A4182), to pick up and recycle or dispose of household hazardous materials
from our seniors and/or disabled residents at no cost to them. The funds for this program were
made available through a grant from the California Integrated Waste Management Board.
As a result of this grant, Curbside, Inc. agreed to recycle and dispose of, at a reduced rate,
household hazardous waste (HHW) from other residents and businesses that generate a small
amount of material. This component was included in the original contract agreement.
The City has been accumulating hazardous materials, paints, thinners, batteries (both alkaline
and NiCad), pesticides, etc., over the past few years. These materials have been stored in
various facilities and are now at a point where they need to be taken care of properly and
quickly, as they are becoming a health and safety issue. The materials have been collected in
one area and are ready to be picked up.
