Subject: Alkaline Battery Recycling Program - Final Report
Summary
On July 16, 2013, the Board of Directors directed staff to implement an Alkaline Battery Recycling Pilot Program that focused on
collecting used alkaline batteries from local schools. During the first year of the program (Fiscal Year 2013-2014), five schools
participated and collected 4,453.9 pounds of alkaline batteries. Every year since then, there has been a steady increase in schools
participating in the program and in the pounds of batteries collected. This year, a total of eighteen schools participated and collected a
total of 8,720 pounds of batteries. Staff is providing the Board of Directors with a final report of this year's program, which took place from
September of 2017 to March of 2018.
Staff Recommendation
That the Board of Directors receive and file the report and direct staff to increase the award amounts for next years Alkaline Battery
Recycling Program.
Analysis
A total of eighteen schools within the District's service area participated in this year's program and collected a total of 8,720 pounds of
alkaline batteries. Below is a chart illustrating the participating schools ranked by the total weight (in pounds) collected per school:
Ranking School Battery Totals (in pounds)Reward
1st Place Davis Magnet School 1,849 $1,000
2nd Place Sonora Elementary 1,411 $600
3rd Place California Elementary 1,316 $400
4th Place Kaiser Elementary 1,108 $300
5th Place Christ Lutheran School 806 $300
6th Place Woodland Elementary 385 $300
7th Place St. Joachim School 377 $300
8th Place St. John the Baptist School 356 $300

10th Place Newport Heights Elementary184 $300
11th Place College Park Elementary 174 $300
12th Place Killybrook School 163 $300
13th Place Harper School 148 $300
14th Place Adams Elementary 132 $300

Access Public
Type Action (Consent)
Recommended Action That the Board of Directors receive and file the report and direct staff to increase the award
amounts for next years Alkaline Battery Recycling Program.
Goals 2.3 Comprehensive Education Program
3.2 Strengthen our ties with local governments, Special districts and educational
institutions
Total 8,720 $5,600
The program works as follows:
1. Mercury Disposal Systems, Inc. (MDS) sends two 5-gallon battery recycling containers to each participating school. Additional
containers are available upon request.
2. In order to remain time and cost-efficient, MDS staff collects the batteries upon request from each school.
3. MDS then tags the buckets with each school’s name, weighs them, and sends District staff the total tonnage collected per school.
4. MDS bills CR&R and CR&R bills the District for this service. This allows us to take advantage of CR&R’s low battery disposal cost of
$0.76 per pound.
5. At the conclusion of the program, a CMSD Director presents the checks to the participating schools.
*A minimum of 50 lbs. is required to receive the minimum award of $300.00. (On average, a 5-gallon container of alkaline batteries
weighs about 50-60 pounds.)
This year, there was a significant increase in the number of participating schools and batteries collected. Staff believes that this is due to
increased advertisement of the program through the District newsletter and increased coordination efforts with each school. Staff is
recommending that the award amounts be revisited as this year four schools collected over 1,000 pounds of batteries but the reward
amount is not reflective of their efforts. Currently, the award breakdown is:
Current Award Breakdown:
1st Place: $1,000
2nd Place: $600
3rd Place: $400
4th Place and on: $300
Staff is proposing a new reward structure that would be based on the school's collecting efforts.
Proposed Award Breakdown:
1st Place: $1,500
2nd Place: $1,000
3rd Place: $800
Over 1,000 lbs: $500
500 to 999 lbs: $350
100 to 499 lbs: $300
50 to 99 lbs: $200
A total of $20,000 is budgeted annually for this program to cover the recycling and award costs, if the new structure is adopted, the cost
of the program would still come in under budget. The graphs below demonstrate these increases over the past 5 years:
The Alkaline Battery Recycling Program promotes recycling and environmental stewardship among local schools. It is CMSD's hope that
students will apply these principals at home, educate their families, and become good stewards of the environment. Additionally, the
program benefits the District through increased visibility within the community, the development of partnerships with local schools, and
credit towards the District's diversion rate.
Legal Review
Not applicable.
Environmental Review
The program establishes a convenient method for school children and their families dispose of batteries, ultimately preventing the
batteries from being illegally placed in the trash and making their way to landfills. As presented, the District’s Alkaline Battery Recycling
Program is not a disturbance to the environment directly or indirectly.
Financial Review
For Fiscal Year 2017-2018, the Battery Recycling program budget was $20,000. Below is the total cost breakdown for the current fiscal
year. If the reward amounts were applied to this years contest, an additional $1,450 would have been paid out which is still well below
the total program budget. The proposed new reward structure will allow for further growth in the program without increasing the budget or
appropriation.
Fundraiser Rewards $5,600.00
Disposal Costs ($0.76 x 8,720 lbs. of batteries)$6,627.20
Total Program Cost $12,227.20

Subject: Quarterly Legislative Update - Quarter 2
Summary
The Quarterly Legislative Update provides the Board of Directors with analyses of measures pending in Sacramento that are of interest to
the District. On July 22, 2010, the Board of Directors gave authority to the President to write support and/or opposition letters on behalf of
the Board if that position has been taken by an agency the District is a member of. For all other bills, staff recommendations for formal
District positions on legislation will be agendized and presented for Board action at their regular Board of Directors meetings. When the
Board takes formal action on a piece of legislation, the President will advocate the support or opposition of individual bills as approved by
the Board. This Legislative Analysis also provides the Board of Directors with informative updates on State issues.

C. ITEMS OF STUDY
To: Board of Directors
From: Rob Hamers, District Engineer
Date: May 8, 2018
Subject: 1585 MacArthur Blvd - Request for additional vacation/quitclaim of sewer main and easement
Summary
In 2016, the property owner, CJ Segerstrom & Sons, Inc., requested the District vacate a portion of an easement and sewer main to
facilitate construction of a new commercial building on APN 415-102-17 located in the Harbor Gateway complex. There was no property
address at the time, but the new address is 1585 MacArthur Blvd.
As part of the original request, there was a buyer for the vacant property and a lot line adjustment was being recorded to adjust the parcel
size to the satisfaction of the parties. After the request was reviewed and discussed, the District agreed to the concept and a quitclaim
deed and indemnification agreement were eventually recorded. Both documents are attached hereto.
Subsequent to the recordation of the documents, the buyer fell out of the picture. The property owner, CJ Segerstrom & Sons, has
decided to construct the building for themselves and rent the offices. To achieve the desired building and site dimensions, another lot line
adjustment has to be recorded and a copy thereof is attached hereto.
The newly proposed lot line adjustment will increase the quitclaim length an additional 68 feet. The simplest solution is to record an
additional quitclaim document and an additional indemnification agreement. The sum total of the two quitclaim documents will equal the
total requested area of abandonment. The first quitclaim was 294 feet in length.
Recommendation
The Board of Directors:
1. Discuss the details of the new request at the May 2018 study session; and
2. Direct the General Manager to bring back final documents to a regular Board of Directors meeting and consider formal action at that
time.
Analysis
Harbor Gateway is generally the area west of Harbor Blvd, east of Hyland Avenue and between MacArthur Blvd and Sunflower Avenue.
The sewers were constructed in 1981 when the District’s policy was to have the sewer lateral for every property be directly connected to
a District main, thereby resulting in quite a few CMSD sewer mains being located in District easements in the Harbor Gateway area.
Today, however, so long as there is an HOA or Maintenance Association that can perform maintenance, on-site sewers serving multiple
properties may be private.
When the Harbor Gateway area was developed in 1981, the CMSD sewers and manholes were constructed by the developer and
donated to the District along with the sewer easements. No compensation exchanged hands at the time. The land owner in 1981 was the
same as now; CJ Segerstrom & Sons. In the first quitclaim, the owner was required to construct a new end of line sewer manhole at the

northerly terminus of the remaining sewer and easement. This is a standard requirement for an end of line condition and will apply to the
new request.
One of the decisions made by the Board of Directors during the original quitclaim was not to charge the owner for quitclaiming the sewer
and easement, including not charging for any lost book value or depreciation loss. In addition to the owner paying the usual and
customary CMSD and OCSD sewer connection charges, the owner was informed by the Finance Manager that the District will be seeking
reimbursement from the owner for the District's legal and engineering costs related to this subject matter.
Legal Review
The attorney for the District will be reviewing the quitclaim deed and indemnification agreement prior to Board of Directors' consideration.
Environmental Review
Vacating a portion of a sewer main, manholes, and easement is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act
(CEQA) (Public Resources Code Section 21000 et. seq.) under Section 15301 as a “Class 1” “minor alteration of existing public or private
structures”, as further described in Section (b) as “Existing facilities of both investor and publicly-owned utilities used to provide ....
sewerage ...”.
Financial Review
The 294 linear feet (LF) of 8 inch sewer line and two manholes that the District vacated in 2016 were donated in 1982 as was the
additional 68 LF being considered in this request.. These assets all have a 60 year useful life which resulted in a $23,273 loss on the
disposal of assets reflected in the district's FY 2017 financial statements. If the Board moves forward with the vacation of the additional 68
LF, the FY 2018 financial statements will also show a small loss on the disposal of assets.

To: Board of Directors
Via: Scott Carroll, General Manager
From: Alan Burns, District Counsel
Date: May 8, 2018
Subject: Consider Adopting Resolution Indicating an Intention to Conduct Public Hearings and to Adopt District Elections by August 11,
2018
Summary
The District has been challenged regarding its “at large” elections. The District has received a letter from an attorney challenging its
method of conducting elections. Under the Voting Rights Act certain action may be required, including adopting a resolution of intention to
remedy by adopting election by districts.
Recommendation
That the Board of Directors Adopt Resolution No. 2018-908 Indicating an Intention to Conduct Public Hearings and to Adopt District
Elections by August 11, 2018
Analysis
The California Voting Rights Act (Cal Elections Code §1426 et seq., hereinafter the “Act”) provides that if racially polarized voting exists
that impairs the ability of a protected class from electing candidates or influencing elections, that at large elections shall not be allowed if
it results in vote dilution. The District has received a letter from an attorney alleging he can prove racially polarized voting and that the
District’s at large elections result in vote dilution that impairs a protected class from influencing elections and electing members of that
class.
The City of Costa Mesa has reviewed similar challenges and determined that a prima facie case might be made for a violation of the Act.
Since their boundaries are close to coterminous with this District’s boundaries, and since the bar is very low for proving a violation,
consideration needs to be given to pursuing a remedy. The law provides that if the District adopts a resolution of intention to provide a
remedy and adopts an action plan within 45 days of receiving the letter, that the attorney’s fees for challenging the District’s election
system would be limited to $30,000.
District Counsel's Office has hired a demographer to provide the background that you will need to make your decisions. Assuming the
demographer shows the violation, a district-based election system can be adopted after five public hearings. The Center for Demographic
Research has been retained to assist the District. The District is required to adopt an action plan to have a remedy in place before August
11, 2018 to comply with the Act’s limitation on attorney’s fees provision. This resolution will establish the intention to adopt an action plan
that would result in district (“division”) elections by August 11, 2018.
This would be too late for the 2018 election cycle. The new election system would be in place for the 2020 election cycle.
Legal Review
