HF&H invites all of our municipal clients to attend our upcoming Emerging Issues Summit, where leading minds gather to delve into the latest sustainability issues faced by local jurisdictions and their ratepayers. Here’s why you won’t want to miss it:
- Zero Emission Vehicles (ZEV): Engage in a deep dive into the potential challenges of ZEV and the likely impacts on your solid waste rates as refuse fleets make the transition under the Advanced Clean Fleets Regulation. Our experts will get you up to speed with easily digestible information!
- Downstream impacts of SB 54: Learn how SB 54 could either relieve local governments of significant recycling system costs OR burden local governments by creating yet another new mandate. We will explore the potential outcomes and their impact on local government budgets!
- Clean Technology/Artificial Intelligence (AI): Explore the potential for AI and other industry innovations to unlock greater success in your programs. Find out what AI could be doing for you!
- Prop 218 and Prop 26: Discuss how prior and future judicial rulings (e.g., Jacks v. Santa Barbara and Zolly v. Oakland) impact funding for local governments as well as the mechanisms used to determine solid waste rates. We will preview potential local government impacts likely to result from the so called “Taxpayer Protection Act,” a Statewide initiative on the upcoming November ballot.
