STAFF REPORT
RE: CPI Increase for Residential Solid Waste Service SUBMITTED BY: Mark Brannigan, Director of Utilities PURPOSE OF REPORT: Information only Discussion Action Item MEETING DATE: 12/20/2011

WHAT IS BEING ASKED OF THE CITY COUNCIL/AGENCY/BOARD: The City Council is being asked to adjust the monthly service rate for solid waste (garbage, green waste, and recycle) service for Lakeport residences. BACKGROUND: On January 1, 2004, the Lakeport City Council entered into a contract with Lakeport Disposal, Inc., for the collection, transportation, and disposal of garbage, refuse, rubbish, and recycling materials in the City of Lakeport. The contract indicates that on January 1 of each year, Lakeport Disposal will receive a rate adjustment equal to 75 percent of the percentage change from the previous year in the US Department of Labor Bureau of Statistics Consumer Price Index (CPI) for the San Francisco, Oakland, San Jose California area (see attached). Lakeport Disposal Co., Inc., made a request to the Lakeport City Council and Mayor on August 16, 2011, for a CPI rate increase (see attached). DISCUSSION: Lakeport Disposal has provided services to the City of Lakeport residences throughout the year and are requesting the contractually agreed upon annual inflationary rate increase (CPI). The contract requires that "the CPI adjustment shall be equal to the amount derived by multiplying the previous rate times Seventy Five (75%) percent of the percentage increase or decrease in the Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers, All Items Index, for the San Francisco-Oakland-San Jose, Ca Metropolitan Area, during the prior twelve month period." The formula used for this equation is: Rate x (75% x CPI) and equates to a 2.4 percent increase this calendar year. Residential services are volume based where the resident can choose between a 20, 32, or 95 gallon totter as illustrated below. One 20-gallon totter, One 32-gallon totter, Two 32-gallon totter, or One 95-gallon totter Lakeport Disposal has also requested a Tipping Fee increase which is a pass through fee charged to the Company for disposing of refuse at the Lake County owned Transfer Station and Landfill, and a fuel surcharge. The tipping fee was approved on August 16, 2011, through Resolution No. 2426 (2011), and the City is awaiting the results of an audit prior to consideration of a fuel surcharge. OPTIONS:
