text: The City of Napa has revised the “Solid Waste, Recyclable Materials & Compostables Enclosure Standards” to address the new food scrap recycling program being provided by the City as required by AB 1826. Among the changes, the revised standards describe the use of wheeled carts for storage of materials and the requirement for space in enclosures for storage of food scraps and other compostable materials. The revised standards also require roofs and drains for food facility enclosures in order to meet stormwater regulations. Proposed amendments to the Napa Municipal Code (“NMC”) are needed to update the definitions in Section 17.06.030 to match new and revised definitions in the revised standards for “Compostables”, “Significant Addition” and “Significant Remodel” and to conform the description of “Recycling/Solid Waste Areas” in Section 17.52.390 with that in the proposed Revised Standards. Proposed revisions to Section 17.52.390 B state the revised standards apply to projects requiring approval of (i) a Use Permit, (ii), a Design Review Permit, (iii) a significant remodel, or (iv) a significant addition.

  UPDATED: The Honolulu Authority for Rapid Transportation did not even level with its own board of directors about ballooning expenses, a new report says.
  Honolulu rail officials repeatedly fed the public rosy estimates that contradicted their own internal warnings of the project’s runaway costs and crippling delays, according to a much-anticipated state audit.
  Furthermore, city and rail officials often clung to “weak” and shoddy budget projections, despite numerous warnings from their federal partners, and they should have seen the project’s severe cost overruns coming, it found.
  The rail report released Thursday is the first of four expected from state Auditor Les Kondo in the coming weeks.
  In 2017, the Legislature, faced with having to bail out the island’s beleaguered transit project for a second time, assigned Kondo’s office to audit the Honolulu Authority for Rapid Transportation’s management and fiscal practices and then deliver its findings before the 2019 legislative session, which begins Wednesday.
  The first report largely focuses on 2014 to 2016, a period when rail’s estimated total costs nearly doubled from just over $5 billion to about $9 billion.
  It found that under the agency’s former executive director, Dan Grabauskas, HART’s “internal alarms of rising project costs and schedule delays were not shared in a timely manner by HART management with the Board, the Legislature or the public.”
