CITY OF COLTON AGENDA REPORT For Council Meeting of May 28, 1991 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council FROM: John C. Hutton, Director of Public Works SUBJECT: Approval of Resolution and Authorization to Enter Date: May 22, 1991 into an MDU with the County of San Bernardino as Part of the Host Community Infrastructure and Environmental Mitigatinn Fund In 1988, the County of San Bernardino imposed a $1/ton fee at all Valley wide landfills and called it the Host Community Infrastructure and Enviornmental Mitigation Fund (HCIEMF). This fee was for the purpose of building a fund of available monies to communities, such as Colton, having a landfill within their City or sphere that was impacted by that landfill due to a variety of reasons, but primarily due to traffic impact to the community. STATEN ENT OF THE PROBLEM: The primary route for traffic to and from Colton's landfill is South La Cadena Dr. The estimated cost that has been prepared as part of the South La Cadena Dr. Beautification Plan is estimated at 1.5 million. This includes not only reconstruction and renovation of the actual roadway, but also the beautifing of La Cadena Dr. by means of landscaped medians and parkways plus the supporting irrigation systems. Since the Community Development Department has funds allocated through CDBG in the amount of $200,000, which is not enough for the project, this funding source could be the key in enabling the City to begin this much needed project. ALTERNATIVES: This funding source directly identifies roadway impacts, though it could also be a means of incentive for the County to reopen the Colton landfill at least one day per week to the area residents, as all other landfills currently are.
