City of Culver City, California
Agenda Item Report
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the City Council adopt a Resolution designating the Los Angeles
County Department of Public Health as the solid waste management enforcement
agency within the City of Culver City and rescinding Resolution No. CS-7570.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:
The Z’berg-Kapiloff Solid Waste Control Act of 1976 (the “Act”) requires that there
shall be designated in each county an enforcement agency to carry out the
provisions of the Act. On October 24, 1977, the City Council, by Resolution No. CS-
7570, designated the Los Angeles County Department of Health Services (“DHS”)
as the agency to undertake the enforcement of the Act, as a complement to other
health services which the County provides for the City. In July of 2006, DHS
reorganized and the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health (“DPH”) was
formed. Within DPH is the Los Angeles County Department of Environmental
Health, Solid Waste Management Program (SWMP) Local Enforcement Agency
(LEA), which is currently authorized and designated by the City under DHS to
enforce all laws and regulations relating to solid waste disposal, handling and
transport within the Culver City jurisdiction.
In April 2009, the City received a request from the County of Los Angeles, Bureau of
Environmental Protection Solid Waste Management Program, that the City provide
the designation for SWMP to act as the LEA within the City under DPH (rather than
the formerly known DHS) and provide a certified copy of this designation to the
County.
