FINANCIAL STATEMENT: Under the proposal, the City would contribute $20,000 of Measure D funds to
offset the cost of capital items and reduce the per unit cost of the program. The
remainder of the costs would be levied as part of the garbage rate at $1.26 per
unit, per month.
DESCRIPTION: As part of the efforts to meet the State mandated goals of AB 939, the City's
Source Reduction and Recycling Element (SRRE) identifies residential recycling as a means to reduce waste
going into the landfills.
The first phase of the recycling program is the current service provided to single family homes in the form of
curbside pick-up. The multi-family recycling project is the second phase of the recycling program as
described in the SRRE. Livermore Dublin Disposal projects that the program will divert about 312 tons of
material which will help the City meet the State mandated goals. The City Council directed Staff to work with
Livermore Dublin Disposal to initiate a recycling program for multi-family projects. This approach was
selected by the City Council in lieu of a competitive Request for Proposal process. At the meeting on October
26, 1992, the City Council indicated that the term should not extend beyond the current curbside program
agreement which expires in March, 1996.
Scope of Proposal
Under the current proposal Livermore Dublin Disposal (LDO) will provide service to the 17 multi-family
projects which consist of approximately 2400 units. Each resident of the complexes will be provided with a
portable recycling bin. Tenants will be able to deposit their newspapers, glass bottles, jars, PET plastics, and
aluminum cans into their individual container in the convenience of their unit.
Tenants can empty their individual loads into two 96 gallon containers which be placed next to the multi-
family units' central garbage bin area. One of the containers will be labeled, "Reserved for Newspapers."
Residents will place all other materials in the second container. Pick-ups will occur on a once a week basis or
if necessary, LDD will empty containers more frequently at no extra charge.
Each tenant will initially receive one small bin in which they will place their materials before going to the
main, 96 gallon containers. Owners of the multi-family projects will be responsible to replace lost or stolen
bins. Project Managers have been encouraged to implement a system in which the small bins become an item
on a checklist so upon moving, the tenant will be liable for the bin.
Program Costs
Livermore Dublin Disposal has presented two options on how to fund this program. City Council has
directed staff to present a contract term which expires in 1996. Program II differs from Program I only in that
the City would provide $20,000 in Measure 0 Funds toward the of purchase capital items resulting in a lower
per unit cost.- The cost of each program is as follows:

(per unit/per month)
3 year
Agreement
$ 1.56
$1.26
The costs for a three year agreement are projected to be approximately 6% higher than a five year agreement.
This is caused by the fact that the company must depreciate the capital cost over a shorter period of time. The
City Council has expressed an interest in having all agreements expire at the same time. The pn;>posed
agreement will place all garbage related services on the same contract te~m. .
Program II proposes the use of $20,000 of Measure D funds. Single family residents recently received a rebate
on their garbage bills from Measure 0 funds so it is equitable to provide a benefit to multi-family rate payers
as well. The total per unit, one time subsidy being provided is approximately $8.33. By providing this grant,
the total cost of the service is reduced resulting in a lower cost to the rate payer. Livermore, for example, has
a per unit cost of $1.40. The Livermore program however, is not directly comparable since it was negotiated
for a five year term. Neighboring cities were contacted in an attempt to provide some kind of cost
comparison. With the exception of Livermore, these cities provide multi-family service through different
methods and could not give a cost that was comparable to this proposed program.
Costs for Multi-Family Property Owners
The 1993 Garbage collection rates for multi-family projects were reduced from rates levied in 1992. Each
project is charged based on the number / size of dumpsters, and the number of times each week the
dumpsters are picked-up. The following examples illustrates the change in costs for a project with just under
250 units;
1992 Garbage
Collection Rates
$2,260/mo.
1993 Garbage
Collection Rates
$1,970/mo.
Additional Monthly
Cost for Recycling
$1.26 x 250 units
New Garbage
Collection Rate
with Recycling
$2,285/mo.
The combined rate with the added service represents only a 1.1 % increase over the 1992 rates. There is also
potential for property owners to further reduce their costs. Due to the reduced amount of garbage going into
the dumpsters and depending on the level of participation from tenants, savings could be realized by
reducing the size of their dumpsters and/ or the number of times per week the waste is picked up.
The multi-family program is very similar to the residential curbside program in that monthly charges are
adjusted annually based on the San Francisco-Oakland-San Jose Consumer Price Index for all urban
consumers. The costs incurred as result of bin damage suffered at the hands of tenants or lost bins will be
handled by the individual property managers.
Public Review
In January, all Multi-Family Projects were advised of the Garbage Rate change. They were also informed of
the current plan to develop a recycling program which would impact Multi-Family rates. All Multi-Family
property representatives were invited to a presentation on February 8, 1993, by Staff and Livermore Oublin
Disposal General Manager, Oan Borges. Mr. Borges presented the equipment which will be provided to the
projects as well as answering questions posed by the group. Eight of the 17 projects in the City were
represented at the presentation. These projects represent 68% of the total units covered by the program. No
significant issues or concerns were expressed by the attendees. A similar presentation will be made at the
City Council Meeting. It is estimated that this meeting will assist in preventing problems when implementing
the program.
,
Implementing the Multi-Family Recycling Program
The City Council must take certain actions in order to implement the Multi-Family Program. A Resolution
adopting an agreement with Oakland Scavenger and Livermore Dublin Disposal is attached for approval.
Since a new rate is being implemented, a Resolution amending the Garbage Service Rates is also attached for
City Council approval. The recycling program and the rate adjustment are scheduled to be started on May 1,
1993.
Staff recommends the City Council; Open Public Hearing; receive the staff report and public testimony; close
public hearing and deliberate; adopt the Resolutions.

Introduction
The past decade has been marked by the pUblic's in~reasing
awareness of the environment and its involvement in the
environment's conservation. The latter is exemplified by the city
"'-
of Dublin, and its residents, through its approval of its weekly
recycling program, Recycle America.
Livermore Dublin Disposal
(LDD), a Waste Management Company, currently provides the weekly
service for single family units. By providing residents with pick-
ups of their recyclable materials in bins provided by LDD,... the
~: ~
Recycle America program has allowed the city of Dublin to increase
the volume of materials collected by 17% during the last year.
with the successful implementation of this first phase of the
recycling program, LDD will set forth the secondary phase of the
program, that of servicing multi-family units.
This proposal
outlines the implementation of LDD's Recycle America program to the
city of Dublin's multi-family dwellings, with brief descriptions of
its operations, the proj ect team involved, and its promotional
plans.
.
e
e
I,
operational specifics !
with the introduction of Phase II of LOO's Recycle~erica
program, recycling services will be available for those multi-
'family units currently serviced by LOO's garbage collection
program. As with the single family units, success of the program
is determined by the number of individuals participating in the
program and the sequencing of the collection routes, as well as
with the number of recyclable material collected.
,..
:;"
Under Program I, LOO will provide containers to the multi-
family units being serviced. Residents of multi-family dwellings
will be provided with a portable recycling bin.
Tenants, then,
will be able to deposit their glass bottle and jars, PET plastics,
and aluminum cans into the portable bin within the convenience of
their dwelling. LOD will situate a larger container, where tenants
can empty their individual loads, next to the mUlti-family unit's
general garbage disposal area- A second larger container will be
provided, labelled and reserved for newspapers. Thus, tenants will
be able to continue their recycling efforts without interruption
during the interim between recycling collections. By centralizing
LOO's pick-ups of such recyclables to the large container and by
providing separate containers for different recyclables, LDD is
'able to minimize the labor cost involved with the program and pass
the savings onto the customer. Program II is the same as the above
except the city of Oublin will provide LDD with $20,000.00 to
enhance - recycling and reduce the cost of the program to the
customer-
Under both programs we will offer old corrugated
;::~l'~"!IIUIII'~~'.Jn.-'II."'b....,....,...."}o,,\.~.',..l.l"''''.~'''''''-' ....~.,.-....~~ .--- u__ --.--
e
.
containers (OCC) to be picked up.
,.
Due to the fact that occ is!
difficult to handle, each complex will be handled differe~t. In
most cases there will be a minimal charge to the complex.
As an effort to keep prices low for the customers, costs
incurred by LDD as a result of bin damage .suffered at the hands of
tenants or lost containers will be passed onto the customer.
Tenants residing in the multiple-family dwellings ~are
~: ~
encouraged to recycle all ferrous and non-ferrous (aluminum) cans,
glass bottles and jars, PET plastics, and newspapers. LDD
recognizes the aforementioned as recyclable materials and will
collect such materials that have been properly segregated into the
recycling containers.
It will hold itself responsible for
informing customers of the necessary actions required for the
collection of the recyclable materials, e.g. the removal of labels
from cans, and the appropriate use and placement of its containers.
Failure to adhere to the guidelines set forth by LDD may
result in LDD's refusal to piCk-Up the recyclable material. In
such instances, customers will be notified by LDD of the specific
reasons for LDD's declination to collect the material and of the
actions that can be taken to recommence the piCk-Up service.
Livermore Dublin Disposal (LDD), located on the eastern end
of Livermore, will be the center of operations for the Dublin
recycling program.
customers of LDD' 5 operat~on have and will:

e
e
~:: ~
continue to find comprehensive custQmer service, whether it be
responding to complaints, answering questions, establishing new
accounts, or handling missed pick-ups.
Phone calls requiring
action by LDD will be dealt with promptly, and, in the case of
missed pick-ups, LDD will dispatch a truck for the missed recycling
collection within twenty-four hours. A record of customer phone
activities will be maintained at the LDD site and can be made
available to the city at the city's request.
.-
;~
The recyclable materials will be picked-up on a weekly basis
by LDD vehicles specially designed for the purpose of collecting
and transporting recyclable materials. Distinguished by the white
and burgundy colors commonly associated with a waste Management
operation, the trucks will go directly to the LDD recycling center,
to deposit the day's worth of recyclable collections.
Participants of the recycling program, thus, can be assured that
the recyclable pick-ups serviced by LDD will in no way find
themselves disposed at a landfill, transfer station, or any other
disposal site outside of a recycling center.
e
e
I.
project T~am
The key Waste Management individuals coordinati~g the
l
'.
recycling program with the city of Dublin are Dan Borges, Division
. President and General Manager at LDD;
Adam Davis, Recycling
Coordinator for Oakland Scavenger Co.; and Ron Outlaw, LDD Division
Vice President and Controller.
While a relatively newcomer to LDD, Dan Borges has been in the
garbage business for over two decades and has for the past d~9ade
~~
been managing one of the more diversified Waste Management sites in
northern California while at Sacramento.
He brings into the
program the combination of a wealth of experience and a range of
knowledge of the garbage industry and, especially, the Waste
Management profile.
Adam comes to o. S. C. /Waste Management having previously served
as the General Manager at Recycled Wood Products.
His prior
experience can only enhance his current role as the recycling
coordinator at O.S.C.
In addition, Adam is an integral part of
0.5. C. /Waste Management I s efforts to inform the public of its
recycling program.
Providing financial/accounting support is Ron outlaw. Ron has
been with waste Management for four years and will utilize his
experience and extensive education to produce timely and accurate
reporting and analysis.
e
e
Promotion
Although recycling has become an important ecological and a
mandated issue in recent years, the general pUblic's awareness is
limited. Drawing from Waste Management's array of human and
material resources, LDD proposes to hold meetings with property and
site managers of the multi-family dwellings to educate them,
firstly, on recycling itself, and secondly, on the proper use of
containers provided by LDD. Educational aids, e.g. pamphlets and
newsletters, concerning the Recycle America program can be made
available to the customers to encourage the practice of recycling.
