10. ORDINANCE NO. 1546 AMENDING WASTE REDUCTION AND RECYCLING PROGRAM REQUIREMENTS Ordinance No. 1546 amends Section 4351 of the Tustin City Code to simplify the collection of deposits associated with the City’s Waste Reduction and Recycling Program for construction and demolition debris. Recommendation: That the City Council introduce and have the first reading by title only of Ordinance No. 1546 and set the second reading at the City Council’s next scheduled meeting.Fiscal Impact: All revenue and expenses associated with the Waste Reduction and Recycling Program are administered through the Solid Waste Fund (Fund 171) and fluctuate based on construction activity throughout the community. The proposed Ordinance will reduce the revenue generated from the construction of new single-family detached homes since only one $50 permit application fee will be collected rather than three. However, there will be a significant saving of staff time in both the Public Works and Finance Departments to collect and refund deposits.
