Week in Review: CalRecycle Implementation Record Export

January 12, 2025 CityCycle Team

This was a compliance-focused week for CityCycle. We shipped 38 commits adding 12,600+ lines of code, with major work on CalRecycle Implementation Record exports and new RFP requirements.

CalRecycle Implementation Record Export

The centerpiece of this week’s work is a new IR Export Service that generates CalRecycle-compliant Implementation Record packages following the April 2025 IR Checklist format. The export produces a ZIP archive with the official 12-folder structure:

  • 01_Enforceable_Mechanisms through 13_Complaints
  • Each folder contains CSVs, summary text files, and relevant attachments
  • One-click download from the jurisdiction dashboard

IR Preview & Completeness Warnings

Before downloading an Implementation Record, staff now see a preview page with:

  • Overall readiness status - critical, warning, or ready indicators
  • Completeness checks - procurement gaps, Tier 1/2 generators missing food recovery logs, quarterly inspection coverage, route review minimums, waiver verification status, and missing hauler reports
  • Section summary with file counts for all 12 IR folders

This prevents jurisdictions from submitting incomplete records to CalRecycle.

Multiple Contacts per Site

A new Contact model supports multiple contacts per site:

  • Role-based contacts: primary, billing, site, owner, property manager, compliance, environmental
  • Each contact tracks name, email, phone, and title
  • Toggles for receives_outreach and receives_enforcement communications
  • Dynamic add/remove UI via Stimulus controller
  • Backward-compatible with existing single-contact sites

CSV Exports & Photo Uploads

  • CSV export buttons added to Complaints, Outreach Logs, Violations, and Waivers index pages
  • Exports respect current filters and stream large datasets to avoid memory issues
  • Photo uploads on public complaint forms, stored in R2 with virus scanning
  • Staff can view complaint photos inline

Test Coverage Infrastructure

We added SimpleCov for test coverage reporting and wrote comprehensive specs across 26 commits:

  • Model specs for Site, Jurisdiction, OutreachLog, FoodRecoveryLog, FranchiseAgreement, Program
  • Service specs for BillEstimator, WebhookDelivery, ProcurementStatus, AudienceFilter, ClamavScanner, and more
  • Current coverage: 38.47%
