Say NO to Increased Fees and Threats to Public Safety from SB 1426
SB 1426 is a bad bill that could lead to increased rates and jeopardize public health. This bill not only undermines local authority but also disrupts the advancements made by SB 54.
Moreover, it risks elevating waste collection costs for California residents.
SB 1426, as proposed, could strip local communities of control over waste management decisions and potentially lead to higher waste collection rates for California residents.
Local control over waste management could be preempted, undermining community autonomy. Progress made under SB 54 may be hindered, impacting the state’s waste management goals. There’s a risk of increased waste collection rates, burdening California ratepayers financially. We believe in supporting measures for improved waste diversion in California, but SB 1426, in its current form, poses significant risks to local authority and the affordability of waste collection services.
The waste hauling industry is subject to extensive monitoring and regulation in the state. However, the challenge lies in the capacity of many cities and counties to effectively oversee and regulate the influx of numerous entrants into the marketplace.
Join us in supporting efforts to build a sustainable future for California, where responsibility for waste management rests with the producers, not the taxpayers.
