Approved Agenda Item No. 2 Date
PROPOSED AMENDMENT
The proposal is to amend Chapter 19 .04 , 19 .26 , and 19. 36 , to
permit recycling facilities and to add Chapter 19 . 41 to San
L-ernardino Municipal Code to establish convenience zones and
procedures for recycling facilities , as required by State
Law.
MUNICIPAL CODE
Presently , the San Bernardino Municipal Code does not refer
to the State mandated requirement for convenience zones and
recycling facilities .
In the Fall of 1986 , AB 2020 , the California Beverage Con-
( tair.er Recycling and Litter Reduction Act was signed into
law. The legislation establishes a beverage container
recycling program, which is to be administered by the State
Department of Conservation , Division of Recycling .
The program mandates the establishment of convenience zones
for recycling centers throughout the State where consumers
can redeem for cash their glass , aluminum, plastic and non-
aluminum metal beverage containers . The centers must be
located within designated convenience zones an area within a
1/2 mile radius of any supermarket that conducts $2 million a
year or more in business. Recycling centers must be cer-
tified by the Division of Recycling before redemption or
reimbursement fees are paid to the consumers .
The burden establishing and running the program rests on
private industry . On September 1 , 1987 , beverage
distributors began to pay a penny per container into a
special fund for every beverage container offered for sale in
the State . Gn October 1 , 1987 , consumers who recycle began
to receive the penny redemption value plus applicable bonuses
established by the Division of Recycling . Stores selling
beverage containers after December 31 , 1987 that do not have
a recycling facility sited in the convenience zone in which
they are located , must either redeem all four container types
or face a daily fine of $100 .
Amendment To Text 87-4

Local governments are responsible for issuing permits for the
siting of recycling center facilities and any concommitant
changes to zoning ordinances relative to AB 2020 implemen-
tation .
Since October , the City has been issuing temporary permits
for the siting of mobile units for recycling . Those permits
will expire March 1 , 1988 .
CEOA
An Initial Study was prepared and presented to the Env-:.on-
mental Review Con.mi `tee on December 30 , 1987 . It is recom-
mended a Negative Declaration be adopted for the text a:�.end-
ment . The public review period for the Initial Stud, and
Negative Declaration was trom January 4 , 1988 to January i` ,
1988 . No comments were received . (See Attachment "B" )
ANALYSIS
Calitornia State enacted the Calitornia Beverage Container
Recycling and Litter Reduction Act of 1986 . This law
requires redemption centers for recyclable materials 'be
located within 1/2 mile radius of any supermarket which does
a gross annual business of $2 million or more.
In response to that legislation, the City proposes to permit
recycling tacilities to be located in those areas with the
following procedures .
Tyge-of_F-acilify Zones_Pelmi ted Permit Required
Reverse Vending All Commercial Administrative
Machine (s) All Industrial Review and Permit
Small Collection C-2 , C-3 and Administrative
All Industrial (DRC)
Large Collection C-3 Commercial Conditional Use

Amendment To Text 87-4
Planning Commission meeting of February 2 , 1988
Page 3
With a conditional use permit , the most intrusive of the
recycling facilities will receive Environmental Review on a
project by project basis .
COMMENTS_RECEIVED
Comments regarding the proposed signage restrictions have
been received from two recycling companies . The comments
contend that the allowable area proposed is not in keeping
with other jurisdictions and , therefore , mobile units which
are uniform in appearance with unknown destinations m&y have
allowable signage in most cities but would have signage in
excess of allowable area in San Bernardino .
Our proposal is for signage of 20% of the side of the unit or
16 sq. ft. whichever is less . Most cities where ordinances
were modeled after the Ordinance proposed by the League of
California Cities allow 20% or 16 sc.. ft . whichever is
greater .
The other comment received regards the proposed requirement
that the "color and design be compatible with surrounding
uses and neighborhood . " Comments from a company which
utilizes the igloo-type kiosk collectors state that the co] ox
of the igloo is bonded in during manufacturing and repainting
to match any given shopping center is not practical in that
paint applied to a bonded surface does not adhere to the
surface .
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the Planning Commission :
1 . Adopt the Negative Declaration; and
2 . Approved Amendment to Text 87-4 .
