Litter Cleanup and Litter Law Enforcement Grant Proposal
Introduction
As per the passage of the Litter Control, Recycllng, and Resource Recovery
Act of 1977 (Senate Bill 650), Santa Monica is entitled to grant funds
totaling $12,526 to be used to supplement the City's current efforts in
11tter cleanup and litter law enforcement.
Background
Although the amount of the grant allocation is pre-determined by the State
Solid Waste Management Board, the completion of a Litter Control Grant
application (copy attached) is required before the grant will be awarded.
This applicatlon must be received by the State SOlld Waste Management Board
prior to December 31,1978, or the allocation will be forfeited.
Staff proposes to hire one temporary employee for one year to aid in the
alley cleanup program currently conducted in the Street Maintenance Dlvision.
Staff also proposes hiring a part-time employee to work out of the Department
of General Services and who will work in litter law enforcement. The plan is
for this individual to identlfy parcels of prlvate property in the City that
require litter abatement; notify the owners of the property of the litter law
violation and required abatement action; and followup the notification with
inspections to ensure that abatement was completed.

STATE lITTER CONTROL RECYCLING AND RESOURCE RECOVERY
GRANT PROGRAM
Grant Proposal
I. Existing Program~
For the past two years the City of Santa Monlca, Department of
General Services, has provlded a litter cleanup program for the City's
70-mlles of public alleys. Federal CETA project funds have been the
^
primary source of funding for the program.
The program consists of uSlng 10 to 14 CETA e~ployees for ~anual
collection of lltter in public alleys. CETA employees are paid $4.33 per
hour and the total direct salary expense for this program has been approx-
imately $125,000 per year. Vehlcles and tools required for this project are
furnished by the City.
The program has been effective in that the appearance of the alleys
has improved significantly and there has been a decrease in the number of
residents' complalnts regarding littered alleys.
City alleys have been identified as problem areas for litter accumula-
tlon that requlre a continuing cleanup program to maintaln an aesthetically
desirable appearance.
The Department of General Services also engages in litter cleanup
enforcement activitles. This activlty includes identify;pg locatlons of
unlawful litter accumulation. notification of property owner to abate such
litter accumulation, and follow-up activity to ensure that the abatement is
carried out.
