WHEREAS, the Town is a member .of the Central Contra Costa Solid Waste Authority

Code sections 40970-40975 in order to facilitate AB 939 reporting and SRRE

disposal and diversion quantities together in a single report, and thus reduces the time and
expense of creating multiple reports; and

making the creation of a single disposal and diversion report a logical decision; and

other shared programs in the future; and
WHEREAS, the California Integrated Waste Management Board favors the creation of
regional agencies; and
WHEREAS, the California Integrated Waste Management Board has advised that in order
to form the regional agency, the CCCSW A should amend its Joint Exercise of Powers
Agreement by a Board vote, and that it should receive approval by each member agency;
and
WHEREAS, the Town finds it beneficial to join the regional agency; now, therefore be it
RESOLVED, that the Town of Danville hereby seeks to become a member of the regional
agency; and, be it further
