body
BACKGROUND
At its meeting of January 11, 2022, the Town Council held a public hearing and introduced by title only and waived further reading of the attached ordinance. The staff report and materials for the January 11 meeting can be accessed on the Town’s website at <https://www.townofsananselmo.org/779/Archived-Town-Council-Meeting-Packets>
DISCUSSION
The attached ordinance establishes enforceable Senate Bill 1383 related requirements for organic waste generators, haulers, and others and contains similar language to other jurisdictions in Marin County. The ordinance also updates the existing Town Code to eliminate provisions that are better suited for the Town’s solid waste franchise agreement. Adopting the ordinance will bring the Town into compliance with state law.
