Attached is a chart showing conformance with the above criteria as of 10/1/07, to the best of our knowledge. There may be jurisdictions that have adopted ordinances or policies of which we are not yet aware. Specifically, in terms of the City of Pleasanton, following is a more detailed status review of these eligibility criteria: • Residential Food Scraps Collection: • Formal adoption of a 75% diversion goal 0 ®° • Adoption of C&D Debris Diversion Ordinance applicable to private as well as to civic projects. Ordinance must apply to all projects over a specified threshold (sq. ft. or $$) and must require minimum diversion of 50% of all debris generated. • Adoption of qualifying Civic Green Building Ordinance onditiona In order to qualify, a Civic Green Building Ordinance must require certification of LEEDTM rating by the U. S. Green Building Council (USGBC) or verification of GreenPoint Rated score by Build It Green, for civic or public/private partnership projects above some specified threshold, per the attached model ordinance. Independent third-party verification is a required element of a qualifying ordinance. The City's Green Building Ordinance does not state that the LEED rating for covered City-sponsored projects will be certified through the USGBC. Please submit a letter from the City Manager clarifying that the City will be certifying all City covered projects through the USGBC. All civic projects are eligible to receive free design assistance and grants for LEED-certified projects, which will partially offset the cost of certification through the U.S. Green Building Council. • Adoption of qualifying Civic Bay Friendly Landscaping Ordinance In order to qualify, a Civic Bay Friendly Landscaping Ordinance must apply to all jurisdiction- sponsored projects over a specified threshold and meet or exceed the most recent minimum Bay Friendly Landscape Scorecard points as set by StopWaste.Org. It is recommended that compliance be verified by Bay Friendly Landscaping staff or designee. StopWaste.Org offers technical assistance to municipal staff in developing and adopting qualifying ordinances. We also provide Green Building and Bay-Friendly Landscaping technical assistance and grants to design and construct civic projects. We look forward to assisting Pleasanton staff in preparing and presenting the required ordinances or policies. Please don't hesitate to contact me or Tom Padia, Recycling Director, at (510) 891-6500 with any questions, concerns, or requests for assistance in meeting the Import Mitigation Funding eligibility criteria. We look forward to working with you and your jurisdiction in moving our County forward toward 75% diversion and sustainable resource use.
