AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF AUBURN,
WASHINGTON, AMENDING CHAPTER 8.08 OF THE AUBURN CITY CODE
ENTITLED "SOLID WASTE", SPECIFICALLY AUBURN CITY CODE SECTION
8.08.160 ENTITLED "COLLECTION - YARD WASTE DISPOSAL" AND
SECTION 8.08.230 ENTITLED "COLLECTION CHARGES - RESIDENTIAL
AND COMMERCIAL COLLECTIONS."
WHEREAS, pursuant to Ordinance No. 4537 approved on
December 17, 1991, as amended pursuant to Ordinance No. 4588
approved on October 19, 1992, the City Council enacted Chapter
8.08 of the Auburn City Code entitled "Solid Waste" which
implemented a new solid waste rate structure formulated to
provide incentives for voluntary conservation and recycling of
solid waste within the City of Auburn; and
WHEREAS, the King County Draft Comprehensive Solid Waste
Management Plan includes a recommendation to implement a yard
waste disposal ban in 1993 which would exclude yard waste from
other solid waste, and as the City of Auburn currently has an
inexpensive alternative to including yard waste in the solid
waste stream, the City of Auburn herein determines that yard
waste should no longer be co-mingled with either curbside
garbage collection or during the annual Spring cleanup program
and, instead, promote the existing voluntary curbside yard
waste collection program and back yard composting; and
WHEREAS, the City therefore proposes an amendment herein
to Auburn City Code Section 8.08.160 entitled "Yard Waste
Disposal" which will prohibit the inclusion of yard waste in
Ordinance No. 4613

solid waste containers and recycling containers and require
yard waste to be separated and placed in approved yard waste
containers; and
Wq{EREAS, to encourage recycling, Auburn City Code Chapter
8.08 provided for "co-mingled recycling" which is defined as
the practice of setting out materials for collection such that
the recyclables are separated from non-recyclabes but are not
segregated into types of recyclable material;
WHEREAS, larger businesses within the City are benefited
by participation in the co-mingled recycling program due to
the high volume of recyclable materials generated, the City
has determined that smaller businesses do not generate the
volume of recyclable material necessary to make the smallest
size co-mingled recycling container, which currently is a one-
yard dumpster, economically feasible to utilize; and
WHEREAS, to accommodate the recycling needs of the
smaller businesses located within the City of Auburn, the City
herein proposes an amendment to ACC 8.08.230 which would
establish a rate for a 90-Gallon Co-mingle Tote; and
WHEREAS, the present rate structure for the commercial
co-mingled recycling program does not provide for the
acceptance of glass products as such are likely to break and
contaminate other co-mingled recyclable materials, the City
herein proposes an amendment to ACC 8.08.230 which would
