Financial Impact: The resolution will allow for the application of up to $250,000 in grant funding. Recommended Action: Adopt Resolution No. 2021-13, "A Resolution of the City Council of the City of Huntington Beach Authorizing Submittal of Applications for all CalRecycle Grants for which the City of Huntington Beach is Eligible." Alternative Action(s): Do not adopt the Resolution and do not apply for eligible grants. Analysis: The City Council has adopted policies that are mindful of protecting the environment, and practices that conserve natural resources, and minimize environmental impacts. In support of these policies, the proposed resolution authorizes the application for grants that encourage the use of rubberized asphalt in City pavement projects. Rubberized asphalt concrete (RAC) utilizes crumb rubber derived from waste tires. Its use prolongs the life of the street, reduces traffic noise, and provides an opportunity to reduce landfill waste and recycle tires. The City has used RAC in its arterial rehabilitation projects for the past 10 years, utilizing approximately $1.1 M in CalRecycle grant funds. This use resulted in the diversion of approximately 363,000 waste tires that would have otherwise ended up in a landfill.
