File Number: 14-207 Staff proposes to add clarifications to Article 16, Section 4-1662 to explicitly allow an Outdoor Facility Permit and clarify the time frame for a Temporary Use Permit as 90 days. Staff also corrected the Temporary Use definition in Article 3 to state a timeframe of 90 days to be consistent with Article 22, Section 5-2222 Temporary Use Permits . Recycling Facilities Staff proposes updating the definition of a Recycling Facility so that it more closely resembles the guidelines established by the State and administered through CalRecycle (formerly, California Integrated Waste Management Board ). Changes are also proposed to allow certain types of recycling uses that take place indoors only through an Administrative Review (AR) process rather than the Conditional Use Permit (UP) process, such as Bulk Reverse Vending Machines, Large Collection and Light Processing. Additionally, any specific references to State certification or State Codes have been eliminated so that the City’s Code does not have to be updated each time the State makes changes. Proposed amended definition: Recycling Facility. A center for the collection and/or processing of recyclable materials, and includes facilities for the drop-off, buyback, deposit, or return for redemption, of recyclable material. Recyclable material is reusable material including but not limited to aluminum, glass, plastic and paper which is intended for remanufacture or reconstitution for the purpose of using the altered form. A recycling facility consists of a reverse vending machine, collection facility, or processing facility, as defined in Section 4-1646 “Recycling Facilities”. A recycling collection facility may also consist of a facility for the collection of reusable household goods or clothes by a charitable organization. Under Article 16, Section 4-1646, the above general definition of Recycling Facility is further defined in several sub-categories as follows: ·Single Feed Reverse Vending Machine ·Bulk Reverse Vending Machine ·Small Collection ·Small Scale Hazardous Waste Center ·Large Collection ·Light Processing ·Heavy Processing Please see pages 6 through 11 in Exhibit G: Proposed Amended Article 16, Section 4-1646, including the summary table on page 8 for the series of proposals for regulating recycling. Retail Sales Staff proposes that this use should be changed to allow for clothing and consignment stores that were evaluated as Secondhand Sales, which is only permitted with a CUP. Clean-up of certain outdated terms are also proposed. Proposed amended definition: Page 11 City of San Leandro Printed on 5/27/2014
