RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
CHULA VISTA ADOPTING THE RECYCLING AND SOLID
WASTE PLANNING MANUAL THAT SPECIFIES THE SPACE
ALLOCATION REQUIREMENTS AND STANDARDS FOR
DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS
WHEREAS, the City of Chula Vista is required under State law to divert and/or recycle
50% of the waste stream; and
WHEREAS, the State of California and the City of Chula Vista recognize that limited
storage space is a key deterrent to implementing effective municipal recycling programs and
accomplishing and maintaining the 50% diversion goal; and
WHEREAS, staff has prepared draft Municipal Code amendments and a Recycling and
Solid Waste Planning Manual for consideration by the City Council to address space allocation;
and
WHEREAS, the proposed ordinance amendments and the Recycling and Solid Waste
Planning Manual establish a scheme to regulate the location and design of areas dedicated to the
temporary storage, collection and loading of recyclable materials and solid waste associated with
new construction projects and subdivisions; and
WHEREAS, adopting these laws and regulations creates a system tailored to the City's
needs and brings it into compliance with AB2l76 (2004) and ABI327 (1991); and
WHEREAS, the Environmental Review Coordinator has reviewed the proposed activity
for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has determined that
the activity is not a "project" as defined under Section 15378 of the State CEQA Guidelines,
therefore, pursuant to Section 15060(c)(3) of the State CEQA Guidelines the activity is not
subject to CEQA.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Chula
Vista does hereby adopt the Recycling and Solid Waste Planning Manual that specifies the space
allocation requirements and standards for development projects.
