Page 1 City of Lake Elsinore Printed on 6/23/2022 Page 1 of 1 REPORT TO CITY COUNCIL To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council From: Jason Simpson, City Manager Prepared by: Remon Habib, City Engineer Date: June 28, 2022 Subject: Submission of Applications for CalRecycle Grant Programs Recommendation Adopt A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LAKE ELSINORE, CALIFORNIA, AUTHORIZING THE SUBMISSION OF AN APPLICATION(S) TO THE DEPARTMENT OF RESOURCES RECYCLING AND RECOVERY (CALRECYCLE) FOR GRANT FUNDS AND RELATED AUTHORIZATIONS Background The City of Lake Elsinore experiences frequent amounts of illegal dumping throughout the year, typically including many tires due to the rural areas, which helps avoid detection. Tires are a problem because they are considered hazardous waste, and an additional cost is involved with their disposal. The City of Lake Elsinore has been the recipient of the tire collection grants for the past several years. Recently, the City has received awards for the Illegal Disposal Site Grant, Local Government Waste Tire Cleanup Grant, and SB 1383 Local Assistance Grant. Discussion This resolution allows City staff to continue applying for grants offered by CalRecycle. These funds will continue to enable the team to host collection events for residents to dispose of tires properly and clean up illegally disposed of tires and debris within the City. Fiscal Impact The net cost of this program to the City is zero. The grant program requires upfront payment for the events and or products, but the grant reimburses expenses.
