BACKGROUND:
To divert waste from the landfill, the Town sponsored its first annual Community Garage Sale last May. There were
approximately 200 garage sales held throughout the Town. This was an excellent community -building event that
allowed residents to meet their neighbors, make some cash and meet our primary objective of diverting useable items
from the waste stream. Many residents are looking forward to participating in the program again this year, scheduled
for May 15.
DISCUSSION:
Agreement with Santa Clara County and the City of Monte Sereno
Last year the Town entered into a letter of agreement with the County of Santa Clara allowing residents of the
unincorporated Los Gatos area to participate in the Community Garage Sale. This year, both the County and the City
of Monte Sereno would like to participate. Letters of agreement with the County and Monte Sereno to compensate the
Town for administrating and coordinating the Garage Sale have been drafted and are attached (Attachment 1 with
Exhibits A and B).
The Town will manage all aspects of the event including creating outreach materials, registering participants, and
preparing a database. Under the proposed agreements, the County of Santa Clara agrees to reimburse the Town of Los
Gatos up to $1,000, and the City of Monte Sereno agrees to reimburse the Town of Los Gatos up to $880, based on
actual expenses as a percentage of the total.

February 9, 1999
Agreement with HOPE Rehabilitation Services
In addition to Garage Sale activities, the Program will also include collection of reusable items. Staff recommends that
the Town contract with HOPE Rehabilitation Services to collect discarded reusable items left at the curb between 5:00
and 9:00 p.m after the sale. HOPE is best suited to serve the Town: it successfully provided collection services at the
first annual Community Garage Sale, it operates a year-round scavenging program, and it is experienced with providing
collection services for other city-wide garage sales in the County. In addition to improving participant convenience, this
service will encourage materials re -use (as opposed to disposal). HOPE will provide these services at no cost.
Last year, HOPE Rehabilitation Services made 135 pick-ups from registered Garage Sale participants. Garage Sale
participants expressed their appreciation that this service was available, it was convenient and they were pleased with
HOPE's performance.
The agreement term is for one year with provisions for two one-year extensions.
ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENTS:
This project is not a project defined under CEQA, and no further action is required.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Funding for the Project is included in the Town's FY 1998-99 Operating Budget. Staff recommends authorizing revenue
budget (210-45099 project "210GAR") increase of $1,880 for reimbursement of expenses and corresponding fund
balance increase.

14. BREACH:
In the event the Director of Building and Engineering Services, as a result of supervising the
Contractor's performance under the Contract or after investigating a complaint by a third
party, finds that the Contractor is or has been in violation of its agreement to comply with
these Equal Employment Opportunity Conditions, notice of such violations shall be filed
with the Director of Building and Engineering Services of the Owner and given to the
Contractor by depositing same in the United States mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the
last known business address of the Contractor, with return receipt requested. Not later than
fifteen (15) calendar days after the filing of said notice with the Director of Building and
Engineering Services, a hearing shall be held by the Town Council of the Owner for the
purpose of ascertaining whether the charges contained in the notice are true, and, if true,
whether the Contractor has failed to make a reasonable and substantial effort to comply with
these Equal Employment Opportunity Conditions. Notice of the time and place of said
hearing shall be given the Contractor not less than five (5) days prior thereto in the same
manner as the notice of violations is given. During said hearing, the Council shall receive
and consider any evidence offered by the Director of Building and
Engineering Services, the Contractor, and any third party. At the conclusion of said hearing,
the Council shall determine the matter and it determination shall be final.
If after the hearing above described the Town Council of the Owner determines that the
Contractor has failed to comply with these Equal Employment Opportunity Conditions, and
has failed to make a reasonable and substantial effort to comply with said conditions, the
Agreement - Exhibit B
Contractor shall be deemed in material breach of the Contract. It is understood that the
Owner will have suffered damage by virtue of said breach; and it being impractical and
unfeasible to determine the amount of actual damage, it is agreed that the Contractor shall
pay to Owner, as fixed and liquidated damages, and not as a penalty, the sum of Fifty Dollars
($50.00) for each calendar day during which the Contractor is found to have been in
noncompliance. Such monies may be recovered from the Contractor and its surety. The
Owner may deduct any such damages from monies due the Contractor.
15. DISQUALIFICATION FROM FUTURE CONTRACTS
A finding by the Town Council of the Owner that the Contractor has failed to comply with
these Equal Employment Opportunity Conditions and has failed to make a reasonable and
substantial effort to so comply, or a finding of willful violation of the nondiscrimination
provisions of the State of California Fair Employment Practices Act, or similar provisions
of Federal law or Executive Order, in the performance of work on the project shall be deemed
a basis for determining the Contractor to be not a "responsible bidder" as to future contracts
for which the Contractor may submit bids. A finding of willful violation of the
nondiscrimination provisions of the State of California Fair Employment Practices Act shall
be deemed to have occurred upon receipt by the Owner of written notice from the California
Fair Employment Practices Commission that it has investigated and determined that the
Contractor has violated said Fair Employment Practices Act and has issued an order under
Government Code Section 12970, or obtained judgment and order of enforcement under
Government Code Section 12973.
16. OTHER REMEDIES:
Nothing contained in these Equal Employment Opportunity Conditions shall be construed
in any manner or fashion so as to prevent the Owner from pursuing any other remedies that
may be available at law or in equity.
