Subject:Authorize City Manager to Execute a Proof of Designation Form to Assist Mid Valley Disposal in Collecting E-Waste During Community Clean Up Events
Meeting Date:November 5, 2020
From:Marissa Trejo, City Manager
Prepared by:Mercedes Garcia, Senior Administrative Analyst


I.    RECOMMENDATION:

Authorize City Manager to execute a Proof of Designation Form with Mid Valley Disposal. This allows Mid Valley Disposal (MVD) to collect e-waste during Coalinga Community Clean Up Events at no charge to residents.  

II.    BACKGROUND:

Mid Valley Disposal holds Community Clean Up Events in the Fall and Spring of each year. During the Clean Up Events Mid Valley Disposal is unable to collect e-waste including computers and televisions without having to collect the names, addresses of each person dropping off e-waste. Having the Proof of Designation on file with CalRecycle allows for the collection of e-waste without this information at the Community Clean Up Events. 

III.   DISCUSSION:

CalRecycle allows Local Government to designate more than one Designated Approved Collector. The Coalinga Community Foundation has an active Proof of Designation on file at this time and has been renewed for next year. The Coalinga Community Foundation is designated as a Permanent Drop-Off, Curbside Service, Illegal Disposal Clean-up and Temporary Special Events. Adding MVD for Temporary Special Events should not interfere with The Coalinga Community Foundation's e-waste collection. 

 



IV.   ALTERNATIVES:

Do not approve authorizing the City Manager to execute a Proof of Designation Form with MVD. 

V.    FISCAL IMPACT:

None.
