days nor more than sixty (60) days after the passage.
The attached resolution satisfies the requirements of the City Charter by providing the
following information:
■ Type: Exclusive

■ Franchise fee: 6% of gross revenue
■ Service Highlights:
■Green waste containers provided to all residential and commercial customers
■Scholarship Awards
■Public education and information component

■Addition of other materials as markets develop
FISCAL IMPACT

approved the raze increases necessary to pay for contract recycling services and
implementation of green waste services. Effective July 1, 1996, city customers pay for these
services, and refuse collection and hauling , through a single rate paid to San Luis Garbage
