The measure would establish the City Controller as the refuse rate administrator. It would also replace the City Controller with a Ratepayer Advocate to serve on the city’s Refuse Rate Board in order to remove any conflict of interests.
Last year, the San Francisco City Attorney’s Office reached a $100 million settlement with Recology, the company contracted by the city to handle waste collection, over excessive charges to customers.
The measure would also replace the City Controller with a Ratepayer Advocate to serve on the city’s Refuse Rate Board in order to remove any conflict of interests connected to their role as refuse rate administrator, city officials said. “These reforms are an important step in bringing transparency and accountability to our rate setting process,” Mayor London Breed said in a statement. “We can’t have a system that is open to abuse that harms our residents and our rate-payers, and I want to thank our Controller and Supervisor Peskin for working collaboratively to come up with these reforms. They will strengthen trust in government and create more clarity for everyone involved in this important process.
