RESOLUTION NO. 2674
A RESOLUTION OF THE TOWN COUNCIL OF THE TOWN OF
TIBURON AUTHORIZING AN INCREASE IN THE SURCHARGE
RATE LEVIED BY MILL VALLEY REFUSE SERVICE, INC.
FOR SUBSIDIZING THE MARIN RECYCLING AND RESOURCE
RECOVERY ASSOCIATION CURBSIDE RECYCLING OPERATIONS
WHEREAS, the Town of Tiburon (Town) and the Mill Valley Refuse Service, Inc.
(MVRS) entered into an agreement on February 1, 1965, providing for the collection of
refuse in the Town; and
WHEREAS, said agreement was amended and extended by a Tenth Amendment to
the Agreement; and
WHEREAS, said Tenth Amendment to Agreement authorizes the MVRS to charge
a sum to subsidize the Marin Recycling and Resource Recovery Association (MRRRA)
operations; and
WHEREAS, the Town Council has reviewed in a public meeting the results of rate
analysis study conducted by the firm Deloitte & Touche which recommends a rate increase
of $0.50, from $1.25 to $1.75 per residential unit per month; and
WHEREAS, the Town Council finds that said $1.75 monthly surcharge for curbside
recycling services is proper and not excessive;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Tiburon Town Council authorizes
the MVRS to charge a sum not to exceed $1.75 per month per residential unit located in
the Town. Said surcharge shall be collected only so long as the MRRRA provides curbside
recycling services to the residents of the Town at the current level of service. If at any time
the rate of return profit to MRRRA increases so that a subsidy is no longer needed to meet
curbside recovery expenses, the surcharge shall be reduced or eliminated. If the curbside
recovery service is eliminated by MVRS and/or MRRRA the proceeds of the liquidation of
these assets acquired through grant funds shall be refunded to the Town in the form of
reduced refuse collection fees.
PASSED AND ADOPTED at a regular meeting of the Town Council of the Town of
Tiburon on February 21, 1990, by the following vote:
