Background:
The California Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle) receives an
annual appropriation from the California Tire Recycling Management Fund to administer the
Tire Recycling Act and related legislation. In turn, CalRecycle has allocated funds for the Waste
Tire Cleanup Grant Program.
Eligible costs for the Waste Tire Cleanup Funds are the cost of collecting, transporting, and
disposing of illegally dumped waste tires that has occurred along the public right-of-ways and/or
illegal dump sites on public and private property. The intent of this activity is to remediate
threats to public health, safety, and property. If waste tires and other illegally dumped items are
not removed immediately, they tend to increase in volume and become a greater problem than
originally discovered.

The City first applied for this grant in FY 05/06 and received $10,000. The City identified three
illegal dumpsites that ranged from 50 to 500 tires. Due to the proximity to homes, businesses,
and schools, all were considered a serious threat to public health and safety. City staff and
volunteers cleaned up and properly disposed of over 3,000 tires illegally dumped in the public
right of way or in vacant lots which was covered by the Grant.
In FY 06/07, the City applied for this grant again and received $17,000. The City's Right-of-
Way crew and volunteers removed waste tires on a weekly basis throughout the City. Overall,
the waste tire clean-up efforts resulted in a total of 120 tons of tires being properly disposed,
which was covered by the Grant.
In FY 10/11, the City applied for a third time and received $15,000. In this application, the City
identified over 1,200 tires illegally dumped throughout the City. The Right-of-Way crew and
volunteers removed small amounts of waste tires on a weekly basis throughout the City. The
waste tire clean-up efforts are ongoing and continue to be funded by the Grant.
The City continues to experience an influx of waste tires that are being dumped illegally despite
the fact that the City offers curbside collection of used tires from residential customers. The City
also hosts a Beautification event twice a year which includes tire collections. In addition, to
offset the influx of waste tires, the City annually applies for other grant funding (Tire
Enforcement) to address and identify those potential businesses and individuals responsible for
illegally dumping tires.
The grant funds will be used by the City to offset the equipment and personnel costs of the
collection, disposal,and hauling costs of waste tires illegally dumped during the grant term.
The application deadline for the Waste Tire Cleanup grant is February 1,2012. The grant term is
now a two-year cycle beginning July 1, 2012 through June 30, 2014. Staff recommends adoption
of the attached resolution ratifying submittal of the application for grant funds.
The total amount being requested in grant funding is $50,000 for the upcoming two-year cycle.
There are no matching funds required from the City.
