City Council

23. 25-54286 Recommendation to request City Manager to explore and pursue strategies to accelerate the transition to zero-emission vehicles for private and city-owned refuse trucks, including identifying public funding opportunities, assessing the fiscal impacts of the city’s fleet transition, planning for proactive fleet turnover depending on technology availability, clarifying the applicability of the City’s Zero-Emission Vehicle and Infrastructure Policy, incentivizing the creation of good jobs through city procurement, and preparing for the long-term development of the necessary charging infrastructure. Report back to the City Council in 90 days on the progress of these efforts. Request City Attorney to draft resolution indicating the city’s policy position towards prioritizing future exclusive franchise agreements with waste haulers that commit to a 100% zero-emission refuse fleet by 2032. Office or Department: Cindy Allen, Councilwoman, Second District; Rex Richardson, Mayor; Roberto Uranga, Vice Mayor, Seventh District Suggested Action: Approve recommendation.
