Analyst Santos Leon stated that the City currently has a surplus of $7,400 in CalRecycle funds. In the past, there have been challenges expending these monies, as funds are restricted and may only be utilized to support activities related tob beverage container recycling and litter abatement.

The funding source is the California Redemption Value (CRV) premium that is paid when consumers purchase beverages in glass bottles, cans, and plastic containers. Funding is distributed on an annual basis based on a per capita formula. Bradbury is entitled to receive $5,000 each year, and receiving the funds is as easy as completing an online form. Currently, the City has a surplus oft these restricted funds in the amount of $7,400. During Fiscal Year 2017-18, the City Council approved a grant program that facilitated the expenditure of the City's surplus CalRecycle funds. It is recommended that the City Council consider a similar grant program to expend the current surplus funds. Should be City Council desire to move forward with the grant program, staff recommends that the City Council review the Request for Grant Proposal and direct staff to move forward with soliciting grant proposals. Mayor Barakat stated that he would like to use some of the funds for National Night Out, if possible.
