Recommendation to request City Attorney to prepare an ordinance amending Chapters 8.60, 18.67 and 21.42 of the Long Beach Municipal Code to comply with the State-mandated legislation Senate Bill (SB) 1383, the Short-Lived Climate Pollutants:  Organic Waste Methane Emissions Reduction.  (Citywide)
Emotions carried. Thank you. 22, please. Recommendation to request city attorney to prepare an ordinance amending the Long Beach Municipal Code to comply with the state mandated legislation. Senate Bill 1383. Or their second on this motion is moved and seconded. There's one public comment. Shukla. Good evening. Mayor and City Council. I'm here this evening to speak in favor of this item and urge your support for it. I'm aware of the study session that already occurred on August 3rd and the the memo that came out a couple of months before that was an item that dovetails with current explorations to replace the search plant, our local trash incinerator, which at present does not have the physical infrastructure, the sewer hookups for anaerobic digestion, so that a pathway for meeting the demands of the SB 1383 is going to be off the table before its enforcement time. The main thing that I'd like to ask this evening, since it didn't cover the question, is when the city, like the city of L.A., is going to have a zero waste policy and adopt a zero waste set of goals, the easier to talk about if we knew when the Climate Action Adaptation Plan was happening. Thank you. Thank you, members. Please cast your vote.
