New Construction and Space Planning
The City of Chula Vista and its residents and businesses are responsible
for meeting the state mandate to reduce or divert 50% of their waste
generated each year from landfills. The City and its residents are
subject to civil penalties of as much as $10,000 per day for failure
to meet that state-mandated goal. In order for residents and businesses
to achieve the 50% goal, structures need to have the space and design
that allows for convenient separation and collection of the materials/commodities
that can be diverted from the waste stream for recycling. The following
documents provide the basic information and contacts for permit
applicants to develop a solid waste management plan for their facilities.
