COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT '�°"NUMBER:
FROM: John Moss, Utilities Director
PREPARED BY: Ron Munds, Water Conservation Coordinator
SUBJECT: A resolution establishing the Integrated Waste Management
Authority (IWMA) as the Local Task Force (LTF) and the
appointment of IWMA Board members as LTF representatives.
CAO RECOMMIENDATION
Adopt a resolution establishing the IWMA as the Local Task Force and appoint IWMA Board
members as LTF representatives.
DISCUSSION
Backaround
Public Resources Code Section 40950 requires the formation of a Local Task Force (LTF) to
coordinate the development of city and county Source Reduction and Recycling Elements. These
elements are mandated by the Integrated Waste Management Act of 1989 (AB 939). The LTF
is also to assist in the preparation of the Countywide Siting Element and participate in other solid
waste issues. The County's LTF was required to be formed on or before March 1, 1990 and
is to meet at least every five years thereafter per the Public Resources Code. The LTF has been
made up of the Cities and County of San Luis Obispo, and various other organizations who have
had an interest in solid waste issues.
The IWMA was formed in 1994 to take over the planning of regional recycling programs. The
major difference between the IWMA and LTF is that IWMA has the power to implement the
regional programs, a power not granted to the LTF. For the IWMA to assume the role of the
LTF is a legal formality of no significance to the City or the other jurisdictions that make up
the IWMA. It was understood among the jurisdictions that the IWMA would, at its formation,
take over the duties of the LTF. The transfer of the LTF was inadvertently left out of the
wording on the Joint Powers Agreement forming the IWMA.
FISCAL EWPACT
There is no fiscal impact associated with this action.
