Caltrain Signal Testing – Horn Use / Reminder of Lunar New Year Fest Tomorrow

Hello – two more quick items for you this afternoon.

First: people who live near the Caltrain tracks in Redwood City should have received a notice from Caltrain about some signal testing that is taking place tonight and tomorrow, as part of their Signal Optimization Program. This signal testing requires that the train horn is sounded more frequently than usual, for a limited amount of time, so some of you may hear that increase in noise between 6 am and 11 am tomorrow (Saturday). I’ve put the text of the Caltrain notice below.

And second: don’t forget tomorrow’s Lunar New Year Festival on Courthouse Square, between 11 am and 4 pm. Lots of great family stuff, please go to www.redwoodcity.org/events for all the details.

thanks,

***************************
Caltrain Signal Optimization Project – notice sent to addresses in a half-mile radius of the tracks

Dear Caltrain Neighbor:

The Signal Optimization Project will design and install new signals on the railroad to allow Caltrain to run trains closer and faster, while maintaining safe braking distances.

To implement this project and assure the signals are functioning properly, Caltrain must test the signal system from midnight Feb. 22 to 11 a.m. Feb. 23 at crossings in Redwood City, Atherton and Menlo Park, weather permitting.

During this time period, Caltrain will use extra trains to test the performance of the signals. Engineers will be required to sound the train horns as they approach the crossings, per Federal Railroad Administration regulations.

The additional horn noise is scheduled only from 6 a.m. to 11 a.m. on Feb. 23.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

Redwood City Police and Fire Departments Announce Town Hall Meeting Schedule
“Coffee with the Cops” Schedule Also Announced

Redwood   City, CA – In January of this year, the Redwood City Police and Fire  Departments announced a collaboration to prevent violence and enhance  safety at neighborhood schools. The comprehensive plan included  synchronizing response procedures between the two departments in  addition to training school staff regarding protocols for sheltering in place or responding to violent intruders on campus. The positive  response to the initiative from those involved was overwhelming.

In   an effort to expand the benefits of this groundbreaking initiative to the greater community, the Police and Fire Departments will be hosting a   series of Town Hall-style community meetings. The theme of this year’s   Town Hall meetings is: “Residents and Public Safety working in partnership to improve our neighborhoods.”

One   meeting per quarter will be held during 2013, beginning in March, at  varied locations throughout the city. The Town Hall meetings will be  facilitated by members of the Police and Fire Departments. Residents  will hear formal presentations about programs and services offered by  each department and participate in a facilitated discussion to voice  their concerns about public safety issues in their community.

In   addition to the Town-Hall meetings, the Police Department will continue  its popular “Coffee with the Cops” events. “Coffee with the Cops” is a  program implemented by the Redwood City Police Department in an effort  to enhance communication between community members and the police  department. “Coffee with the Cops” is an informal event designed to  allow citizens the opportunity to ask questions and learn about new   programs and efforts the police department is currently focusing on in   their neighborhood. During “Coffee with the Cops,” no formal  presentation takes place, so citizens are welcome to drop in anytime  during the event. Citizens will have the opportunity to meet the  officers who are working in their neighborhoods. Officers will be  answering questions, passing out crime prevention information,  connecting citizens with City services, and helping citizens get  connected to the Redwood City Police Department’s Social Media sites.

Reminder: Info Meeting TONIGHT (Tuesday) on Reusable Bag Ban

Good morning – Here is a reminder that there is an informational meeting TONIGHT concerning Redwood City’s consideration of a reusable bag ordinance (also known as a plastic bag ban).
The  detail is below – this is the second informational meeting on this issue, and will be held in the community room of the Downtown Library, 1044 Middlefield Road. More information on the possible ordinance is online at www.redwoodcity.org/ReusableBag, and on the County’s model ordinance and multi-agency EIR at http://smchealth.org/bagban
Thanks,
~ malcolm

********************

You’re invited to a

Redwood City Informational Meeting – Reusable Bag Ordinance  

At its meeting of March 11, 2013, the City Council of  Redwood City will be considering adoption of a reusable bag ordinance  which would prohibit the distribution of single-use plastic bags within  the City. This follows San Mateo County’s adoption of a reusable bag  ordinance last year, which has subsequently been adopted by a number of  other cities on the peninsula. The second of two informational meetings is scheduled for TONIGHT,  Tuesday, February 19, 2013, 7 pm in the Community Room of the Redwood  City Downtown  Library, at 1044 Middlefield Road. The meeting is  intended to assist businesses and  community members with understanding  the scope and effect of the  proposed reusable bag ordinance. The City’s  web page outlining  the consideration of a reusable bag ordinance is  located at www.redwoodcity.org/ReusableBag.

The County provided the environmental analysis for its reusable bag  ordinance, which the cities, including Redwood City, can rely upon for  their ordinance. The purpose of a multi-agency process such as this is  to provide for a uniform, consistent standard across the region, making for a smoother transition and easier compliance by affected businesses.   If adopted, the City’s ordinance would take effect on April 25, 2013.If  adopted in Redwood City, the ordinance would ban distribution of  plastic bags by all retailers except restaurants and nonprofits (not  including protective bags for produce or meat, dry-cleaning, and  newspapers, among other exemptions), and require retailers to charge a  minimum of 10¢ per paper bag used (25¢ as of 2015).

In 2012, San  Mateo County prepared a Program Environmental Impact Report (EIR) and  passed an ordinance for a ban on single-use plastic bags, in favor of  the use of reusable bags, affecting unincorporated County areas. The  County’s ordinance takes effect on April 22, 2013. All cities in San  Mateo County with an interest in adopting the County ordinance within  their borders have either passed or are considering passage of a  reusable bag ordinance. These 18 cities are all identified in the  County’s EIR and its Study Area, which allows cities to adopt the  ordinances without needing to conduct a separate environmental analysis. The  EIR notes that an estimated 400 million single-use plastic bags are  used each year in San Mateo County, including an estimated 42 million in  Redwood City, with only a small percentage being recycled. The majority  end up in the landfill, or as litter and in storm drains, and they are a  common litter item found in roadway, park, and creek cleanups in  Redwood City. As litter, these plastic bags can adversely affect marine life when they find their way into streams, creeks, lakes, and the bay.   The EIR estimates that an ordinance would potentially reduce Redwood  City’s annual use of plastic bags by 95%.

Further, use of  reusable bags reduces litter and conserves natural resources: a reusable   bag has the potential to replace over 600 single-use plastic bags over   its lifetime, significantly reducing plastic bag litter, and reducing the one-time use of paper bags.

The community is invited to this information meeting, and to the March 11 City Council meeting, to learn more and participate in the discussion of a possible ordinance banning the use of single-use plastic bags. If the Council approves, a second reading of the ordinance would be held at the City Council’s March 25 meeting, with the ordinance becoming effective 30 days later.

Small Increase in Garbage/Recycling Rates Proposed

Good morning – I wanted to be sure you received this information, about a proposed increase in the rates for garbage/recycling in Redwood City. Please see the news release below, for all the details (you can also get details at www.redwoodcity.org/garbagerates).

City to Consider Small Increase in Solid Waste (Garbage/Recycling) Collection Rates

Redwood City, CA – The City Council of Redwood City will be considering a 3% increase in the residential and commercial rates for garbage and recycling collection within Redwood City. For the majority of Redwood City households (most of which have a 32-gallon cart), this would be an additional 79¢ per month/per cart (for those with 20-gallon carts the proposed increase is 33¢ per month/per cart). A 3.25% increase is proposed for “unscheduled” other services.

The City Council will be considering this proposed rate increase at a public hearing on February 25, 2013. The City Council meeting starts at 7 pm, and takes place at City Hall, 1017 Middlefield Road.  If the proposed rates are approved by the City Council the rate increase would be effective the next day, February 26, 2013.

In general, the proposed rate increase is a result of a number of factors, including higher disposal and processing costs (due to increases in tonnage and tipping fees), higher service levels due to an increased number of residential customers, Recology’s wage and benefit cost increases resulting from its collective bargaining agreements, fuel rate increases, and general operating cost increases (more details on the cost factors are online).

The rates charged to customers must reflect Recology’s actual cost of providing service, and take into account the contractually-agreed upon revenues – in other words, Recology is guaranteed a specified amount of revenue, which was negotiated as part of the franchise agreement. This type of arrangement is typical in the garbage/recycling collection industry. Notices of the proposed increase have been sent to all garbage/recycling service customers in Redwood City. Customers may protest the proposed rate increase at the public hearing, or may do so by writing to the City prior to the hearing.

Solid waste collection rates are adopted annually by the City of Redwood City. The proposed new rates are based on a financial projection of operating costs and revenues for Recology San Mateo County for calendar year 2013. The costs owed to Recology for collection services of solid waste, recycling, and organics materials in 2013 have been reviewed by City staff and the South Bayside Waste Management Authority (SBWMA) staff, and have been approved by the SBWMA Board of Directors. In addition, operating costs include the cost for disposal and processing collected materials at the Shoreway Environmental Center and franchise fees paid to the City of Redwood City. The SBWMA (www.rethinkwaste.org) is the joint powers authority representing the various cities and agencies that contract with Recology.

Other member cities in the SBWMA are also considering rate increases. Due to Redwood City’s ongoing deliberate, conservative fiscal management, we’ve been able to keep the proposed increase to a reasonably low level, and avoid the more significant increases being proposed by some cities.   Visit  Redwood City’s award-winning website at  www.redwoodcity.org for information about the City and its services, the community, recreation programs, education, and local business.
