7. ADMINISTRATIVE REPORTS (Continued)
7.2 Report from City Attorney - Continued viability of the Resource Center and secondary
impacts of day laborer solicitation. (U1100.0) TAPE 1000 City
Attorney David DeBerry stated the proposed ordinances are tailored to address issues caused
by a disregard for the rights of private property owners not to have solicitors on their property
and solicitation on public sidewalks; while providing reasonable alternatives for day laborers
to obtain work. He reviewed the main points of each proposed ordinance.The
proposed Ordinance No. 19-07 will regulate the activities of pedestrians and motorists
utilizing public rights-of-way and commercial parking lots to solicit for
employment services,goods and contributions. Proposed Ordinance No. 23-07, being recommended
for review by the Planning Commission, will establish regulations for those businesses
that desire to establish private property job centers where day laborers and employers
can congregate and enter into employment relationships without resulting in negative secondary
effects, such as traffic, safety and use
of public rights-of-way.Mr. DeBerry referenced recent statistics on the Resource
Center activities which show that since Council mandated the requirement for two forms of
identification, the number of users has decreased. He summarized that in its 17 years of existence (with
the exception of the first year) it has not had a significant impact on addressing
the day laborer problems being experienced on private property and public sidewalks in the
City. He noted an article submitted to the Council just prior to the meeting written about the
City of Costa Mesa's problems; and information obtained from Orange Police
indicating that more businesses in Orange
are posting signs prohibiting solicitation.Mayor pro tern Dumitru, noting the numerous attempts which have
been made over the years to address this issue, stated that it was his recollection
that Council had previously requested establishment of a permitting program which he suggested could
serve to help identify the legal status of workers and assist the Police Department
with enforcement. In addition, he expressed concern for protecting legal immigrant
workers, suggesting the
permitting program might achieve this.Mr. DeBerry indicated that the permitting program is an option to
be explored, adding that the courts often like to see cities trying less restrictive measures first, and
if those fail then more restrictive measures may be acceptable. He also stated
that initiating a permitting program would require a great deal of staff time. He stated that
the ordinances address the problems and impacts on businesses, but do not speak to the legal status of
the day laborer. He added that if the proposed measures do not work, the permit program
could be the next step.Mr. DeBerry, responding to Mayor Cavecche's
question regarding the difference between obtaining a permit to stand in designated locations for work
versus obtaining services at the Resource Center, stated that day laborers usually stand at a
street corner, or where construction materials and equipment are sold, to give them more visibility
and
a better chance
CITY COUNCIL MINUTES November 27,2007
7. ADMINISTRATIVE REPORTS (Continued)
Mayor Cavecche clarified with staff that the proposed regulations would not affect the sign
twirlers who usually stand on corners and that to enforce the new regulations a written notice
on file from the property owner would be needed to support a violation of the private property
prohibition.
Mr. DeBerry stated that with the notices on file the City would be alerted to the problem areas
and added that a posted sign would satisfy the requirement as well. He reported that law
enforcement has been more visible in the problem areas resulting in the number of individuals
congregating dropping. However, this has not solved the problem, as day laborers often scatter
when a marked police vehicle shows up and that there is some evidence that lookouts may be
warning day laborers of when a police vehicle is approaching.
Mayor pro tern Dumitru noted that currently day laborers can be seen standing underneath the
posted signs which prohibit their solicitation, and expressed frustration that business owners
feel they are not getting the City's support in controlling the problem.

Attorney, David DeBerry addressed comments made by the speakers, reporting that a citywide
prohibition of day laborer solicitation on public streets and sidewalks would likely not
pass a constitutional test. He explained that cities have tried that approach and the courts have
found the ordinances unconstitutional, in part because the cities did not have a job center within
their jurisdictions, which Orange does. In response to one speaker's comment that an enforcement
only policy won't work, he noted the City's 20-year history of attempts to address
this through extensive dialogue with both day laborers and community groups, as well as
community education.
Mr. DeBerry responded to Mayor Cavecche's question as to what can be done to enforce local
employers illegally soliciting workers, indicating that the ordinance does apply to employers
and significantly raises the amount of the fines.

CITY COUNCIL MINUTES November 27,2007
7. ADMINISTRATIVE REPORTS (Continued)
Police Chief, Robert Gustafson reported on the efforts of the Police Department to address the
problems through communication with the day laborer community about the existence of the
Resource Center. He noted that outreach has occurred with local organization, both in English
and Spanish.
Chief Gustafson stated that the Police Department has attempted to enforce the Vehicle Code,
Penal Code, and the Business and Professions Code, as well as contacting Federal Offices for
additional training. He added that 840 police officer hours have been expended over the past
months just on the day laborer issue and that this is all one officer does during his entire shift.
Mayor pro tern Dumitru stated that the day laborer problem has always been one of the major
complaints he has heard since before being on the Council. He cited problems such as
depressed wages for legitimate workers; no benefits; cheap labor amounting to slavery;
increase of crime; shoplifting at solicitation sites; and noted the Police Department's need for
more enforcement tools. He added that the Council action needs to convey a tougher, clearer
approach to the problem, adding that the protection of citizens and legal residents is his
prImary concern.
Councilmember Bilodeau indicated he had opposed the Resource Center originally because it
was advertising day care providers - a practice that has been stopped; and because the requirement
for identification was dropped. He added that the disrespect for property owner's rights
is unacceptable. He stated his support for the measured steps approach to defend property
rights and to regain a sense of community.Mayor
Cavecche stated that this is a public safety and property rights problem. She added that many
cities have struggled to address the problems just to be struck down in the courts and that she
is not willing to back down on the issue. She stated her support for a careful strategy being laid
out to protect the rights of the people here legally to be able to work. She noted that the City
has one full-time officer assigned only to this problem, and that this officer would be
better utilized out on the streets patrolling on other matters. She stated her concern with the
proposed permitting process, noting that she suspects it may draw in people from other cities.
Councilmember Smith stated she also sees problems with the permitting process; reiterating
her support for checking identification over issuing permits. She stated that if employers were
not hiring, there would not be the incentive for day laborers to gather. She also stated her
support for the increase in fines for potential employers. Lastly, she noted that if solicitation is
to occur only at a Resource Center, the City may have to establish more centers in other areas
of the City.
Mayor pro tern Dumitru stated his support for the permit process to identify those who do not
use the Resource Center, but would rather stand in front of home center stores; and for those
who are legally here and legally qualified to work.

banners being allowed was excessive for the Historic District
and asked for clarification.Councilmember Smith asked whether a fee was charged by the City
for hanging the banners.Public Works Assistant Director, Roger Hohnbaum responded that the
proposal is to hang banners on each set of street lights for two blocks in each direction on
Chapman A venue and one block in each direction on Glassell Street. He stated that the City
recoups the cost of hanging the banners from the organization. He further added that
the ordinance requires the banners to be brought in two weeks early for inspection and
compliance with standards for
placement in the Plaza.In response to questions from Council, Mr. Hohnbaum reported that the
banners have to be publicizing events occurring in Orange, or on behalf of
non-profit organizations based in Orange. He also stated that the banners hung for the
International Street Fair event are considered decorations which are not covered in the ordinance.

HEARINGS 10.1
SOLID WASTE RATE ADJUSTMENTS (C2500.M.1)Time set
for public hearing to consider revised rates for solid waste collection and disposal servIces.The
City
entered into an agreement with Waste Management of Orange County effective June 1,1999, for
the provision of solid waste collection and disposal services. The agreement provides that Waste
Management may request a rate adjustment each year based on specific economic factors including
changes in the producer price index and County of Orange landfill disposal fees. The
agreement also requires that specified residential and commercial rates be within the lowest one-
third of all cities in Orange County providing similar solid waste services. Staff has reviewed
and validated Waste Management's rate adjustment request. If approved, the rates will become
effective January 1, 2008.Discussion -
Public Works Assistant Director, Roger Hohnbaum gave the staff report.City Attorney,
David DeBerry responding to a question from Mayor Cavecche explained that the adjustment
of rates, set forth in the contract as recommended by a consultant hired in 1997,is based
on the Producer Price Index (PPI) rather than actual costs based. He indicated that if the rate
increases were based on actual costs, an outside auditor would have to be hired each year to
analyze the data. He also noted that the contract will be up for renewal in 2009.Mayor pro
tern Dumitru asked for a status on a request made by himself and former Councilmember Steve
Ambriz that Waste Management post Safe Surrender placards on dumpsters; as
the placards have been successful at hospitals and fire stations.Mr. Ross,
Waste Management's representative, replied that it was the opinion of Waste Management that
there are better ways to educate the public on this social issue; that the notices were
ineffective. He cited legislation, and relying on non-profit groups to educate as two
ways to accomplish this. He stated that the company felt the notices on the dumpsters were
ineffective.Pal!

10. PUBLIC HEARINGS (Continued)
Councilmember Smith stated the placards might plant the wrong idea and may not be an
appropriate place for Safe Surrender placards. She supported the po stings at hospitals and fire
stations; and encouraged the idea of education and posting signs in school restrooms. She
suggested that Waste Management could make a contribution toward this education.
Public Works Department Senior Administrative Analyst, Jamie Herbon responded to
questions from Council, stating that most cities have similar franchise agreements with their
waste contractor that base rate increases on the PPI.
The Council concluded that Waste Management is requesting the rate increase according to
provisions in the agreement and after careful consideration, the City is obligated to approve the
rate increase since Waste Management has met all requirements. It was also determined that
discussions will take place to pursue a program to educate the public on the Safe Surrender
program.
