SECTION II:
The reasons for the urgency of this Ordinance are as follows:
The City's trash contractor has experienced significant cost
increases due to labor cost increases. This increase in labor costsnecessitatesanincreaseinthesumpaidbytheCitytothetrash
contractor and, therefore, an increase in the sanitation chargepaidbyallpropertyownersintheCity.
In order to cover increased labor costs, the City and the
City's trash contractor agreed that any increase in charges should
re effectIve as of December 1, 1981. However, due to the lengthoftimenecessarytoanalyzethefinancialdatasubmittedbythe
trash contractor and due to the length of time to reach agree-
ment on a recommended increase, it was impossible for the City to
present a regular Ordinance to be effective on January 1, 1982;
therefore, the necessity of this urgency Ordinance.
Unless an urgency Ordinance can become effective on January 1,
1982, it shall be necessary to increase the sanitation charge in a
greater amount in order to permit the City's trash contractor to
cover increased labor costs. An Ordinance enacted pursuant to the
regularly established procedure would require five or six weeks from
the day it was first introduced to become effective.
THEREFORE, pursuant to the procedures of Section 36937 of the
California Government Code, the City Council of the City of OrangeherebyenactsthisOrdinanceasanurgencymeasuretobecome
effective on January 1, 1982 in order to protect the public health,
safety and welfare until the time the permanent ordinance becomes
effective.
ADOPTED this 8th day of December 1981.
