MINUTES <br />City Council <br />February 8, 1989 <br />and 3) other advantages. <br />Mayor Fahey said by dividing as in North St. Paul, there <br />could possibly be a lot of bickering between the haulers. <br />Sue, from Bellaire, said that they are a fairly large <br />hauler in North St. Paul, and they don't have that problem. <br />The city lets them do their own billing, use own <br />containers, and have a leaf program and recycling. <br />Scalze asked Sue about the division haulers prices set by <br />the City. <br />Sue informed the Council that the price is $9.75 for 60 <br />gallons and $12.75 for 90 gallons. These prices do not <br />include compost or recycling but do include the container. <br />Scalze inquired about the division of haulers in North St. <br />Paul. <br />Sue said that in North St. Paul, there were nine haulers, <br />but now there are only four. Sue said this is because of <br />conditions which prevented the haulers from staying in <br />business. <br />The Mayor says that he'd rather have one good strong hauler <br />who makes money and does a good job for the City and <br />citizens of Little Canada. <br />Sue says that five haulers are presently in Little Canada. <br />She stressed that if her account in Little Canada was lost <br />she would have to take her carts and go elsewhere. Sue <br />charges $12.o0/month (with containers) in Little Canada <br />presently. She said other haulers include containers. <br />Sue discussed that there were nine haulers willing to <br />accept the division system. <br />The Mayor said that the Council is not obligated to support <br />5-6 haulers, if there is a more costly and less efficient <br />way for citizens. He said he does not want four haulers <br />running all over the City. He wants the haulers to make a <br />proposal. <br />A comment was made that the oil trucks should be regulated <br />on the streets as well as the garbage trucks. <br />Page 4 <br />
