RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL
OF THE CITY OF NATIONAL CITY AUTHORIZING
THE MAYOR TO EXECUTE AN AGREEMENT
FOR TERMINATION OF THE SPECIAL CONTRACT
BETWEEN THE REGIONAL SOLID WASTE ASSOCIATION
AND THE CITY OF NATIONAL CITY, AND
RESCINDING RESOLUTION NO. 97-118
WHEREAS, the Regional Solid Waste Association ("RSWA") was established in
September, 1997, as a joint powers agency formed by several cities in San Diego County,
including National City, in order to find a solution to the disposal of solid waste by member cities
after the County ceased performing that function; and
WHEREAS, Resolution No. 97-118, adopted on September 16, 1997, authorized
the City to join RSWA as a "Special Contract Party", and the City subsequently entered into a
"Special Contract" with RSWA. National City held this status because it had opted out of the
transmittal of its solid waste to the Vista Transfer Station, which was being considered at that
time; and
WHEREAS, because the Vista Transfer Station Project has since been
abandoned by RSWA, there is no longer any reason for National City to have Special Contract
Party status.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of
National City hereby authorizes the Mayor to execute an Agreement between the City and
RSWA terminating the Special Contract, thus eliminating the City's Special Contract Party
status.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that Resolution 97-118, which had initially
authorized the Special Contract, is hereby rescinded.
