WHEREAS, the City of Dublin executed a Collection Service Agreement with Amador Valley

WHEREAS, the Agreement requires the City Council to adopt a rate schedule, which is
estimated to produce a specified revenue amount as identified in the Agreement; and
WHEREAS, the City Council adopted the initial rate schedule with Resolution 68-05 at a
noticed public hearing on May 3, 2005 and the Agreement provides that the City Council is
responsible for establishing all rates; and
WHEREAS, the Agreement with AVI provides for an adjustment to the rates each July 1st in
accordance with specified formulas; and
WHEREAS, the Agreement allows for Extraordinary Adjustments to be made if specific criteria
are meet as identified in the Agreement; and
WHEREAS, AVI requested and the City granted an Extraordinary Adjustment due to the
nationwide decline in the recycling commodities market; and
WHEREAS, the City has calculated the required rate adjustment necessary to generate the
agreed-upon compensation, including the Extraordinary Adjustment, and applied not more than a
10.48% adjustment to the residential, commercial, roll-off, construction and demolition debris, and
other collection service rates excluding commercial recycling; and
WHEREAS, to generate the necessary revenue from commercial recycling, the City is
introducing a new commercial fee to be set at 25% of the comparable garbage rate; and
WHEREAS, on June 18, 2019, the City Council conducted a noticed public hearing prior to the
adoption of the new rate schedule.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Dublin does
hereby adopt the Rate Schedule attached hereto, marked Exhibit A and by reference made a part
hereof.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that, while AVI may not charge a rate for these services in
excess of the established rates, nothing shall prohibit AVI from charging a rate less than the
established amount.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that, upon the effective date, July 1, 2019, this resolution shall
supersede all previous resolutions adopting rates for solid waste services, and the rates adopted by
this resolution shall continue from year to year.
