City Approves Settlement with SGH Holdings LLC Regarding Temporary CUP
The city council discussed and unanimously approved a settlement agreement with SGH Holdings LLC concerning a dispute over a temporary Conditional Use Permit (CUP) 2016-0001. The agreement extends the temporary CUP to December 15th, 2033, requires SGH Holdings to pay $54,680 in unpaid development impact fees, withdraws a pending administrative request to amend CUP conditions, and waives certain rights for SGH Holdings to sue the city. The settlement is effective as of March 13th, 2026, and aims to resolve disputes regarding the legality of the temporary nature of the CUP, expansion, SGH's obligations regarding the Broadway Street extension, and the application of the municipal code to the project at the SGH location.
Waste Management Rates for FY 2026-27 Approved with 3.13% Increase
The city council reviewed and unanimously approved the maximum garbage and recycling service rates for USA Waste of California, doing business as Waste Management, for fiscal year 2026-27. The approved rates reflect a total increase of 3.13%, effective July 1st, 2026. This increase is attributed to a 1.97% adjustment for Waste Management (driven by a reduction in fuel costs and no changes in recycling processes) and a 1.16% adjustment for the Salinas Valley Solid Waste Authority (reflecting increases in landfill disposal, diversion program, organics processing, and transfer fees). The city's franchise fee percentage remains unchanged, but the city's revenue from these fees is expected to increase due to the overall rate hike.
