RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution authorizing the submittal of an application for payment programs and related
authorizations to CaiRecycle for the beverage container and other recycling programs.

SUMMARY
The State Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CaiRecycle) administers various
programs to encourage recycling, including the beverage container recycling city/county grant program.
The purpose of this program is to provide funds to cities and counties for beverage container recycling
projects and litter cleanup activities in an effort to reach and maintain an 80 percent recycling rate for all
California Refund Value (CRV) beverage containers.
The City has historically received about $5,000 a fiscal year under this program, which usually is
provided to the Monterey Regional Waste Management District for education efforts under the Central
Coast Recycling Media Coalition (CCRMC). The CCRMC includes 24 public agencies and 5 private
companies in Monterey, Santa Cruz and San Benito Counties whose mission is to promote uniform
waste reduction, reuse and recycling messages.
The adopting of a resolution authorizing the submittal of an application is a new State requirement for
the 2015-16 fiscal year. The City would be ineligible for this funding if the resolution is not adopted.
