Summary
The council authorized a three‑year service agreement with Smart Compliance LLC to provide CalRecycle‑required SB 1383 organic‑waste tracking and recordkeeping for a total three‑year cost of $21,985, funded from the general operations budget.
The Cudahy City Council voted to authorize a three‑year service agreement with Smart Compliance LLC to provide recordkeeping and tracking services required under California’s SB 1383 (Organic Waste Reduction Act).
Public Works Director Brial Diaz said CalRecycle required the city to provide a mechanism for tracking SB 1383 compliance; staff solicited quotes from three approved vendors and recommended Smart Compliance LLC because its three‑year total ($21,985, including setup) was substantially lower than competing proposals. Under the staff recommendation: setup costs plus year‑one and year‑two fees total $21,985, with the third year waived under the three‑year contract structure.
Councilmember Fuentes asked whether other cities used outside vendors; staff said many jurisdictions use similar third‑party systems because internal capacity is limited. The city will fund the agreement from its general operations budget.
The council approved the motion to enter the agreement by roll call.
Implementation: the Public Works Department will execute the agreement and provide required data access when CalRecycle audits the city’s SB 1383 compliance.
