February 13, 2012 Subject: Ordinance Enforcement Report This report summarizes major points for three ordinance enforcement topics covering Scavenging, Graffiti, and Trash Container Enforcement. Scavenging. In the month of January, there were no calls to the District HQ to report scavenging activity. However, there were incidents I observed directly, the scavenging incidents listed below were, for the most part, not individuals who are trying to make a business from recycling materials. There was one citation issued for the month of January. Also, as previously discussed, in the month of January, Costa Mesa Police Officer Julian Trevino and I began a joint effort to suppress scavenging activity in the City of Costa Mesa. We will continue, for now, to meet twice a month and focus our attention in patrolling Tuesdays' trash pick-up day; alleys off of Magnolia St, Broadway St, Flower St, Costa Mesa St, E. 18th St, Esther St, etc. Officer Trevino has been providing his years of experience in assisting me with my job duties. His advice has been vital to maintaining my safety and security when out in the field. Areas and times were scavenging was observed by the OEO: DATE TIME ADDRESSES Citation Issued 01/09/2012 11:30am 2010 Maple Ave 0111712.012 08:1 Sam 300 Flower St (alley) 0112512012 09:30am 2960 Royal Palm Dr(alley) 01/31/2012 07:30am 400 Magnolia St (alley) Yes 01/31/2012 1 08:35am 400 Magnolia St alle y Graffiti: Nothing to report this month. 0rotecting our connnunity s heaftf and tfie environment by providf rrg sofid"waste an.dseTwer coffection seroires. wa�rv.c7rmsdca.gov Ordinance Enforcement Report February 13, 2012 Page 2 oft Trash Container Enforcement. In the month of January, there were three complaints that came into the District HQ to report addresses that leave their trash bins (t/b) in public sight (p/s). I made a site visit to each address: 2773 Albatross Dr(11 st Notice Issued) 3077 Gibraltar Ave (1st Notice Issued) In addition, a complaint was called in for 3443 Pinebrook and other surrounding homes in this condo/townhouse community. Because trash, is picked up on Fridays in this area, it was necessary to make a site visit on a Saturday. On February 11, 2012, 1 made a site visit and issued six 1st Notices in the area. I will be going back to the area on February 18, 2012 to follow-up and to see if any further action will be necessary. A summary of the courtesy notice process for the District OEO is provided in the following chart and demonstrates the effectiveness of a "1st Notice": January 2012 Est, esy "No 1po, , t, ot'kpo South of Wilson St. 3 0 0 Wilson St. to Adams Ave. 9 0 0 Adams Ave, to Sunflower Ave. 4 0 0 Other: I observed several shopping carts at different locations and reported them to Costa Mesas' cart retrieval hotline. 1500 Iowa St (2) 400 W.

In C MSD service. area C«R&R promoted the green waste cuter bin that allay residents to dip pose of large quantities of gLreen waste at a discounted.rate.

AlKqgdy half of CR&R's fleet servicing CMSD service area is CMG and with the remaining half of the fleet scheduled to be replaced with CNG by 2014. At CR&R's coi:Rorate office in Stanton, it has two material recover facilities where reaclables are sorted, bailed and shiRped. to variable markets to be reused. A pproximately 120,000 tons of material is recycled each year! CR&R is an innovator by constructing California's first biofilter. This specially degigned, one-acre filter uses three giant fans that pull air from the proces"n plant and push it through a 14-foot natural filter composed of recycled concrete and wood chips. BV keeping, the wood chips moist, CR&R cultivate beneficial microorganisms that eat the odor- causing compounds, making the neighborhood air cleaner and improving quality-of-life. CR&R believes that eve j:y trash container holds treasures, such as recyclables, that can be saved from the landfill, transform, and breathe new life into. CR&R's com posting facility in San Juan Capistrano for example, enables them to turn cut grass, leaves, plants, and other household or business green waste, into rich compost. Through composting. they are able to return nature's nutrients to the earth. It's an enrichincr idea that's really growing in thq,region!

With eight eateries participating at this time, Burrtec is processing at any time 10 tons of material for composting, The Fontana facility has the capacity to process 100 tons. Its Coachella Valley facility currently processes 250 tons. Rodriguez, the manager at Lucille's, said the restaurant plans to continue with the program after the free 12-month trial is over. Two months into the program, Rodriguez said employees are accustomed to separating food waste. Generally speaking, food, bones, paper products and other organic materials go in the food waste bin. Plastic, glass, foil and Styrofoam do not. "It was a little hard at first to train everybody," Rodriguez said. "Employees thought, 'It's one more thing we have to do.' " The program coincides with the restaurant's wish to become more environmentally conscious. Several months ago, the restaurant chain got rid of its Styrofoam containers. "I'm willing to do whatever it takes to help the earth," Rodriguez said. "Whatever we do today is for tomorrow."
