A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF NEWPORT BEACH, CALIFORNIA, DECLARING ITS
INTENTION TO CONDUCT A PUBLIC HEARING TO
CONSIDER THE GRANTING OF A NON-EXCLUSIVE
SOLID WASTE FRANCHISE TO JAMES BLOMBERG, A
SOLE PROPRIETOR
WHEREAS, the City Council finds and determines that the collection of solid
waste generated within the City is a vital public service and that the storage,
accumulation, collection and disposal of solid waste and recyclables is a matter of great
public concern because improper control of such matters would subject the City to
potential liability, damages and penalties and may create a public nuisance, air
pollution, fire hazard, infestation and other problems affecting the public health, safety
and welfare; and
WHEREAS, non-exclusive franchises for the use of public streets to provide
commercial solid waste hauling services will promote the public health, safety and
welfare by promoting permanence and stability among those businesses wishing to
provide such service and accountability to the City for compliance with current and
future state mandates; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to Article XIII of the City Charter and pursuant to Sections
49500 through 49523 of the Public Resources Code, the City is authorized to enter into
non-exclusive franchise agreements for commercial solid waste collection services with
private solid waste haulers; and
WHEREAS, James Blomberg, a Sole Proprietor, has submitted an application
requesting a Non-exclusive Solid Waste Franchise that satisfies the City's application
requirements.
