CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION <br />September 5, 2017 <br />APPROVED <br />43 informational purposes. The council discussed the use of forfeiture funds (related to the <br />44 assignment of an officer to the Drug Task Force) for certain capital purposes, including <br />45 the cameras. He explained that the force currently has squad cameras and so they are <br />46 attempting to match the platform of the new cameras with the current equipment. <br />47 4. Textile Recycling/Reuse -Environmental Coordinator Marty Asleson and <br />48 Maddy Pelon, Recycling Intern introduced Paul Gardner, Waste Zero, the contractor who <br />49 would be involved in the proposed program. Mr. Asleson noted the amount of textiles <br />50 that are thrown into the garbage and that this program is a way to possibly put a dent in <br />51 that. Ms. Pelon explained how the program would work. Residents would have bags <br />52 accessible to them, they could fill them with unneeded textiles, and they would be picked <br />53 up on recycling day. It would cost the city nothing and the city would actually receive <br />54 funds. Mr. Gardner explained the demand for the materials, to thrift stores, overseas and <br />55 to grading facilities. Mr. Gardner noted that people are still throwing away 85% of their <br />56 used textiles and materials so there is a large market to tap. <br />57 <br />58 Council Member Kusterman noted that accepting electronics could lead to people putting <br />59 too much junk on the street for pick up and you could have a garbage situation. <br />60 <br />61 When Council Member Rafferty asked how the cost of mailings, etc, is covered, Mr. <br />62 Gardner said they are covered by Waste Zero as part of their program. <br />63 <br />64 The action requested by staff is to have the city attorney look at a proposed agreement for <br />65 this program and then for staff to bring the contract forward for council authorization. <br />66 <br />67 Council Member Maher said she's excited about the program; she clarified that this <br />68 would not involve another garbage truck cruising the neighborhood; the company uses a <br />69 transit van. <br />70 <br />71 Mayor Reinert remarked that it's a neat program but it may have some undesirable <br />72 aspects. With the attorney looking at the contract, there will be time for the council to <br />73 think further. The council concurred to have the contract reviewed. Mayor Reinert <br />74 suggested that council members contact Mr. Gardner with any questions. <br />75 <br />76 Council Member Manthey asked if the council could receive references/information from <br />77 other cities who are participating. <br />78 5. Proposed Asphalt Plant in City of Columbus- City Planner Larsen explained <br />79 that staff has pulled together some basic information since the council has requested more <br />w detail. This project is not located within the city so staff has limited data. Ms. Larsen <br />81 noted that a site plan was included in the council packet. She explained what the <br />82 company is requesting from the City of Columbus and what the project would entail. <br />83 Staff did receive a public hearing notice from Columbus and sent back comments on the <br />84 negative impacts to Lino Lakes. Ms. Larsen noted the petition that was submitted <br />2 <br />
