Summary
The occupancy count is the number of residential customers that the District pays CR&R for the trash truck to stop and pick-up trash.
The District pays CR&R $9.7954 per occupant per month. Each month, new residential customers in brand new developments contact
the District to establish new trash service. District staff contacts CR&R to approve the drop-off of carts at the residence, which results in
an increase in the occupancy count as shown on the attached list.
Over the years, some discrepancies have occurred in the number of total occupancies. District staff has been working with CR&R to
reconcile the entire list of service addresses for the past few months. While this process in underway, the District and CR&R have agreed
to freeze the occupancy count at the March 2017 level. District staff will continue to track the number of new service addresses, but the
District will only pay for the total occupancy count of 22,518 until the total address list is verified. Thirteen (13) accounts have been
added since the last billing period.
The payment calculation is based on the following:
District's Current Rate for August of 2017:
22,518 x $9.7954 = $220,572.82
Recommendation
That the Board of Directors accept the occupancy count as presented using 22,518 as the correct number of active units and direct staff
to prepare a warrant to CR&R Environmental Services for August 2017 collection based on this occupancy report so long as the
contractor fulfills the obligations of the agreement in the amount of $220,572.82 to be ratified in the September 2017 warrant list.
Analysis
Accept the occupancy count as presented using 22,518 as the correct number of active units and direct staff to prepare a warrant to
CR&R Environmental Services for August 2017 collection based on this occupancy report so long as the contractor fulfills the obligations
of the agreement in the amount of $220,572.82 to be ratified in the September 2017 warrant list.

Summary
Staff is providing the Board with the Annual Compliance Report to fulfill the information and reporting requirements of
Government Code Section 66013(d) for Capacity Charges.
Staff Recommendation
Staff recommends the Board receive and file this report.
Analysis
On May 27, 2010 the Board adopted Ordinance No. 76, revising the charges collected by the District and establishing
that fixture fees are capacity charges and making related clarifying changes. (CMSD § 6.04.040) Fixture fees are
capacity charges for public facilities in existence at the time a charge is imposed or charges for new public facilities to
be acquired or constructed in the future that are of proportional benefit to the person or property being charged,
including supply or capacity contracts for rights or entitlements, real property interests, and entitlements and other
rights of the local agency involving capital expense relating to its use of existing or new public facilities.
Upon payment of the fees, the money shall be deposited in a separate capital facilities account maintained in
accordance with Government Code Section 66013(d). For each such separate account, the District shall, within one
hundred eighty (180) days of the close of the fiscal year, make available to the public the following information:
(1) A description of the charges deposited in the fund.
(2) The beginning and ending fund balance of the fund and the interest earned from investment of moneys in the fund.
(3) The amount of charges collected in that fiscal year.
(4) An identification of all of the following:
(A) Each public improvement on which charges were expended and the amount of the expenditure for each
improvement, including the percentage of the total cost of the public improvement that was funded with
those charges if more than one source of funding was used.
(B) Each public improvement on which charges were expended that was completed during that fiscal year.
(C) Each public improvement that is anticipated to be undertaken in the following fiscal year.
(5) A description of each interfund transfer or loan made from the capital facilities fund. The information provided, in
the case of an interfund transfer, shall identify the public improvements on which the transferred moneys are, or will
be, expended. The information, in the case of an interfund loan, shall include the date on which the loan will be repaid,
and the rate of interest that the fund will receive on the loan.
Legal Review
District Counsel has reviewed this report. The report complies with Gov. Code § 66013 and CMSD Operations Code
6.04.040.
Environmental Review
Preparing the yearly compliance report is categorically exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)
(Public Resources Code Section 21000 et. seq.) Section 15300.4 of CEQA allows an agency while establishing its own
procedures “to list those specific activities which fall within each of the exempt classes”, and the District has adopted
“CEQA Guidelines and Implementing Procedures” that state on page 6 “”Projects” does not include …. C. Continuing
administrative or maintenance activities.”

Recommended Action Staff recommends the Board receive and file this report.
Goals 7.0 Finance
Financial Review
Finance staff confirms that the Annual Compliance Report presents fairly the financial activity of the Facilities Revolving
Fund for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2017. During the fiscal year 2016-17, the Facilities Revolving Fund received
$183,352 in capacity charges, interest income earned of -$3,715 which was lower due to fair market valuation
adjustments recorded at year end. There were no expenditures incurred during the fiscal year. As of June 30, 2017,
the funds available in the Facilities Revolving Fund were $183,328.
In comparison, the capacity charges collected in fiscal year 2015-16 were $257,323. The decrease of $73,971 in
capacity charges collected over the prior fiscal year was the result of the timing of payments received from several
large new residential development projects.

Summary
Attached is the Investment Report for the month of August 2017. As required by the District’s Statement of Investment Policy, the
Investment Report delineates all investment activity during the month.
Analysis
This report lists the types of securities held in the District’s portfolio, the institutions from which the securities were purchased, maturity
dates and interest rates as of August 31, 2017. The District’s investments are in compliance with the Statement of Investment Policy
adopted by the Board at the June 22, 2017 regular meeting, as well as the California Government Code. The market values in this report
were provided by our third party custodian, Pershing, LLC, except for the Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF). The market value of
LAIF was provided by the State Treasurer’s Office. It does not represent the value of the underlying securities within the pool, but rather
the par or cost amount, which is the amount the District is entitled to withdraw. This reporting practice is consistent with industry standard
practices for similar funds.
The weighted average stated rate of return (current yield) for the District’s investment portfolio as of August 31, 2017, was 1.443%. The
yield to maturity of the portfolio was 1.448%. The District’s weighted average interest rate was 36 basis points (0.359%) above the LAIF
average monthly rate for August 2017 of 1.084%. The weighted average number of days to maturity for the District’s total portfolio
was 892 days (2.44 years). The average duration of the underlying securities in LAIF as of August 31, 2017 was 179 days.
The District’s investment portfolio is in compliance with its liquidity limitations, which requires that a minimum of 20.00% of the portfolio
must mature within one year. The percentage of the portfolio maturing in less than one year as of August 31, 2017 was 28.35%. The
District has adequate cash reserves necessary to meet its obligations for the next six months.

D. GENERAL MANAGER'S REPORTS
Summary
On Wednesday, September 6, 2017, the District received a Contribution Application from the Costa Mesa High School (CMHS) Mustang
Football Boosters to sponsor a banner for the 2017-2018 school year. The Boosters are seeking a monetary contribution of $500-$1,000
to hang 1-2 stadium banners on the CMHS campus. Currently, the District has an existing Organic Recycling Program Banner hanging at
Mustangs Field (pictured in Attachment B).
Staff Recommendation:
That the Board of Directors:
1. Establish the purpose CMSD is trying to serve as a contributor to the Costa Mesa High School Football Boosters; and
2. Describe how the expenditure will advance CMSD’s purpose; and
3. Consider contributing $500 to continue hanging a CMSD Organics Recycling Program banner at Mustangs Field.
Analysis
According to the procedures implemented on July 31, 2013, the Board of Directors must do the following in order to determine if a
contribution should be made:
Establish the purpose the District is trying to serve by contributing. This purpose must be established as one of the District’s
statutory powers or a power that would be incidental to those purposes. For example, District purposes include properly treating
sewage, preventing SSOs, and recycling.
Describe how the contribution will advance the District's purpose.
In previous years, the Boosters allowed for banner sponsorships ranging from $250 to $2,500, depending on the length of time the
banner would be displayed (during the football season only or year-round), the number of banners displayed, and the size of the
banner. The Boosters have restructured their sponsorship program to include a flat rate of $500 per banner, per location as follows:

The banners are displayed from the time of purchase/production until the end of the school year. If indicated on the sponsorship form,
sponsorships can directly support one of the following school programs: band, baseball, softball, girls basketball, boys basketball, girls
volleyball, boys volleyball, football, boys swim, girls swim, boys water polo, girls water polo, track, or cross country. Additionally, the
Contribution Application (Attachment A) states that the banner can help educate CMHS students and the community about recycling and
electronics disposal.
Due to the District's limited Sponsorship budget, staff is recommending a $500 sponsorship of a single banner in Mustangs Field. High
school football typically attracts the highest attendance out of all school sports, so the District's banner would be most visible to residents
in this location.
If the District's banner is kept as is, the banner promotes the Organics Recycling Program and encourages residents to recycle their food
scraps and green waste by participating in the Organics Recycling Program. The banner also directs residents to the District's Organics
Recycling Program webpage to learn more about the program. The Organics Recycling Program is relevant to most Costa Mesa
residents, therefore the banner may be most effective in promoting this program. However, if the Board of Directors directs staff to
design a new banner, the following other programs can be considered for promotion:
Large Item Collection Program
Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) Program
Fats, Oils, & Grease (FOG) Program
Legal Review
Not applicable.
Environmental Review
The consideration of a monetary contribution to a non-profit organization to be used as a vehicle for promoting a District recycling
program is an administrative matter and is not a disturbance of the environment similar to grading or construction and is not a project
under CEQA or the District’s CEQA Guidelines.
Financial Review
Currently, there are sufficient funds available in the FY 2017-18 Public Information/Education/Community Promotions Sponsorships
account for this $500 contribution. A total of $8,000 is budgeted for sponsorships during FY 2017-2018 and the District has expended a
total of $5,500 in contributions. This leaves a remainder of $2,500 for FY 2017-2018.

D. GENERAL MANAGER'S REPORTS
Summary
On February 22, 2017 the Board of Directors accepted CR&R's offer to negotiate a new contract for solid waste services that included the
elimination of the evergreen clause, to be substituted with a fixed term with renewal options along with new program parameters. The
negotiations were to be completed within 3-6 months. Staff is providing the Board with an update on negotiations that include points that
were agreed and disagreed upon. In fact, negotiations are at an impasse and staff is now seeking direction from the Board.
Recommendation
That the Board of Directors provide direction to staff
Analysis
Since 2006, CR&R Environmental Services has been providing curbside solid waste and recycling collection services to all Costa
Mesa residents and a small portion of Newport Beach residents (Santa Ana Heights). Commercial solid waste and recycling services in
Costa Mesa is managed by the City through an open market process that allows up to nine different hauling companies the authority to
collect and dispose of commercial waste. CR&R provides residential solid waste and recycling collection services in Newport Beach and
twenty-four different hauling companies are authorized to collect and dispose commercial waste in the City.
CMSD's contract with CR&R expired in 2016 and now the term is on a year to year basis that includes a six year evergreen clause, which
means the contract will expire six years after CR&R receives a cancelation notice from CMSD. For example, if CMSD sent a
cancelation notice in 2017, the contract will expire in 2023. CR&R provides a "mixed waste stream" collection program where all refuse
and recyclable materials are disposed of in automated carts and then the recyclables are separated at CR&R's transfer station in the City
of Stanton. In 2015, CR&R implemented a curbside organics recycling program where green waste and food scraps are delivered to
CR&R's anaerobic digestion facility in the City of Perris where the material is converted into Renewable Natural Gas (RNG). In addition,
CR&R has provided the following special programs.
Telephone Book Recycling. This program ended in 2012 because telephone books are becoming obsolete, so a new program
was implemented, Alkaline Battery Recycling Program.
Christmas Tree Recycling.
Excess Boxes & Household Furnishings.
Large Item Pickups.
Door-to-Door Household Hazardous Waste Collection for seniors and disabled residents
Lockable trash carts
Other programs CR&R is required to perform as per the terms of the agreement, include:
Tours of CR&R's Recycling and Transfer Station.
A monetary contribution of $10,000 per year to assist CMSD with public education.
A cash donation of $500 per year to support local recycling efforts, such as the Alkaline Battery Recycling Program.
A monetary contribution of $10,000 to provide a Household Hazardous Waste (HHW) collection program.
Provide a static display of baled recyclables at the annual Community Run and provide $200 for prizes.
A monetary contribution of $5,000 to support anti-scavenging of recyclable materials.
Signage on CR&R's collection trucks that promote recycling programs.
As a result of the programs implemented by CR&R, CMSD is experiencing the highest solid waste diversion rate for residential collection
services (a percentage of solid waste being diverted away from landfills) of all CR&R contract cities in Orange County, as shown below.

CMSD's original goal is to divert 75% of the waste stream in 2015 and 90% of the waste stream in 2020. Now, the focus is to divert 75%
by 2020. There has been no solid waste rate increases in the past eleven years. In fact, the Board of Directors approved two rate
reductions in the last seven years.
As per direction of the Board, for the past six months staff and CR&R have been negotiating for a new contract to provide solid waste and
recycling collection services. The following deal points have been agreed upon by staff and CR&R:
1. A fixed term limit of ten years with two five year extension options. The evergreen clause is removed and now the Board of Directors
will have option to solicit bids towards the end of the ten year term or the Board can extend the agreement for another five years.
2. District wide door-to-door household hazardous waste (HHW) collection program. Each household will be allowed three pickups per
year. The total pounds allowed to be picked up at each household is set by the County.
3. Free Mulch Event. Once a year CR&R will provide free mulch to residents in the Spring time.
4. CR&R will reimburse CMSD $35,000, along with annual CPI increases, for various programs including public education, anti-
scavenging, hiring a consultant to evaluate CR&R's performance, and a donation for the Alkaline Battery Recycling Program.
5. A comprehensive outreach program that will help CMSD achieve 75% diversion. CR&R's Sustainability Coordinator will dedicate 20
hours a week promoting solid waste diversion programs in CMSD. Attached is a description of the plan. You may recall one of the
findings in the Organics Recycling Behavioral Study is that residents will recycle more organics when they learn their neighbors
are recycling organics. One idea is to recognize residents for doing a good job with their recycling efforts by having a photo of them in
the newsletter and awarding them a gift card. This is done in the City of Santa Ana (see attachment).
6. Roll-out assistance to senior/ADA residents without requesting documentation. Residents will no longer have to provide proof of their
age or medical documentation proving they are disabled. Residents will contact CMSD to request roll-out service and then staff will
email CR&R to request said service.
7. CPI Increase. CR&R can request a two year CPI rate increase, but the request will have to go before the Board for approval
consideration. Some cities have automatic CPI rate increases, but staff believes the District will lose control setting the rates if an
automatic adjustment is implemented. CR&R did agree to allow CMSD to review their financial books to determine their profit margin
with CMSD.
The following deal points were not agreed upon by staff and CR&R.
1. Newport Beach Transfer Station. Staff requested CMSD's waste be unloaded at the City of Newport Beach transfer station, located at
592 Superior Avenue. Using Newport Beach transfer station will improve collection efficiency and reduce CR&R's fuel costs, which can
help stabilize rates. However, according to CR&R state regulators are requiring weighing scales for the transfer trailers that will be
hauling waste out of the City, but the station is too small for such scales. CR&R suggested another location for the scales, but the City
denied the suggestion. Until the City and CR&R can resolve this issue, CMSD will not be able to use the transfer station.
2. GPS System on CMSD Computers. Staff requested CR&R GPS System, a computerized system that tracks the location of their fleet,
be uploaded on CMSD computers so staff can track the fleet in CMSD. Having CR&R GPS on CMSD computers will greatly improve
customer service for both agencies. For instance, when residents want to learn when their carts will be emptied, staff can give residents
the location of the nearest CR&R truck and the approximate time of arrival. If a resident calls HQ to complain his/her cart was not
emptied, staff can inform the person if or when CR&R's truck was in the neighborhood. However, CR&R's GPS is proprietary and they
are not willing to share the system with CMSD at this time. CR&R did agree to share with staff video recordings if a resident complains
his/her cart was not empty. The video recording will demonstrate the truck was at the person's home, or not, emptying his/her cart.
3. Lowering the Organics Recycling Rate. According to the Second Amendment with CR&R, dated February 25, 2014, the following is
stated:
"For being the first agency in Orange County to commit to the AD facility, CONTRACTOR agrees the DISTRICT will have the lowest
conversion technology rate in the County. If CONTRACTOR negotiates a lower rate with any Orange County agency, then that rate shall
become the rate of the DISTRICT."
Staff has learned that on October 27, 2015 the City of Stanton negotiated an organics recycling program with CR&R at no additional cost
to residents. The program began in 2016 and according to the agreement between Stanton and CR&R, all future costs for organics are
to be approved by the City at or after July 1, 2019. See attached staff report and contract. CR&R disagrees that Stanton's organics
program is free. According to CR&R, the City of Stanton is charged $87.50 a ton for organics, compared to $71.50 a ton charged to
CMSD. However, when staff requested copies of City of Stanton bills showing the $87.50 a ton charge, Stanton officials informed staff
there are no bills because the organics program is temporary free to residents. Since the difference between $87.50 and $71.50 is
$16.00, staff suggested to CR&R that CMSD's rate be decreased by $16.00 to $55.50 a ton for three years. Reducing the organics rate to
55.50 a ton could save CMSD over $450,000 in organics costs for the next three years. CR&R said "No" to the temporary rate reduction.
OPTIONS
There are several options to consider, which is why staff is seeking direction from the Board. The options are:
1. Do nothing and continue with the existing contract with CR&R on a year to year basis.
2. Direct staff to send CR&R a cancelation notice to be effective September 20, 2023 and direct staff to prepare a Request for Proposal
and begin soliciting proposals from qualified solid waste companies in 2021.
3. Direct District Counsel to review the Second Amendment to determine if a breach of contract exist, or not, due to the City of Stanton's
Organics Recycling contract.
4. Direct staff to continue negotiating with CR&R.
5. Accept the deal points agreed upon by staff and CR&R and direct staff to bring back a new contract for the Board's approval
consideration.
Legal Review
Not applicable at this time, but the Board can direct District Counsel to review the Second Amendment with CR&R to determine if a
breach of contract exist or not. In addition, if the Board directs staff to bring back a new contract then District Counsel will assist in
preparation of said contract.
Environmental Review
Contract negotiations is an administrative matter and is not a disturbance of the environment similar to grading or construction and does
not constitute a project under CEQA or the District’s CEQA Guidelines.
Financial Review
Depending on the Board's decision there will be financial impacts to CMSD. The financial impacts for each option are described below.
1. Do nothing and continue with the existing contract with CR&R on a year to year basis. Financial Impact - A do nothing position will
still have financial impacts to CMSD because the solid waste fund balance is offsetting organics recycling costs. In addition, the total
tonnage collected by CR&R is increasing due to infill development. Staff is estimating the fund balance will be exhausted in three years
and will require a rate increase that could be as high as $4.00 a month. This does not take into consideration a CPI rate adjustment
requested by CR&R.
2. Direct staff to send CR&R a cancelation notice to be effective September 20, 2023 , direct staff to prepare a Request for Proposal
(RFP) and begin soliciting proposals from qualified solid waste companies in 2021. Financial Impact - Due to the evergreen clause, the
cancelation of service will not go into effect for six years. As mentioned above, in three years the rate may have to be increased unless
costs are cut and/or additional revenue sources are identified. In addition, there are consulting costs to help prepare and evaluate
proposals and assist transitioning with a new hauler (assuming CR&R is not selected). The City of Newport Beach spent nearly $200,000
on consulting services when the City contracted for residential solid waste and recycling collection services. Typically, when public
agencies request proposals for solid waste collection services competition among the hauling companies will result in lowering the
agencies costs, but there is no guarantee CMSD's costs will be reduced by conducting an RFP especially when there are fewer
competing hauling companies in the market. Also, if the Board wants to continue using anerobic digestion technology for diversion the
District will probably no longer have the lowest organics rate.
3. Direct District Counsel to review the Second Amendment to determine if a breach of contract exist, or not, due to the City of Stanton's
Organics Recycling contract. Financial Impact - Costs for legal services will increase especially if District Counsel determines a breach
of contract exists. How much legal services will cost is unknown at this time.
4. Direct staff to continue negotiating with CR&R. Financial Impact - There will be staff costs for continuing negotiations. As mentioned
above, the impasse is regarding the City of Stanton's organics recycling program. If CR&R agrees to temporary lowering the organics
rate CMSD will experience some savings in organics costs, but if CR&R does not agree to lowering the fee costs for the organics
recycling program will increase, especially as the program is recently experiencing an increase in tonnage.
5. Accept the deal points agreed upon by staff and CR&R and direct staff to bring back a new contract for the Board's approval
consideration. Financial Impact - Approving this option will result in some enhanced services provided by CR&R such as a District wide
door-to-door HHW collection program, free mulch for residents and a strong commitment to public outreach, but without cutting costs
and/or finding additional revenue sources rates will most likely increase in the next three years. It will be the first rate increase in nearly
fifteen years.
