<br />APPROVED MINUTES <br />Ms. Klebba wanted to know if the schools would be able to receive new recycling <br />labels for the recycling containers to make people aware of what can go in the <br />containers. <br /> <br />Ms. Jai said yes, free labels is part of Anoka County Business Recycling Assistance <br />Program. In addition, the county works with the schools. <br /> <br />Ms. Jia had a PowerPoint presentation on the 2016 tonnage. Lino Lakes goal was <br />2049 tons and we only collect 1628.57 tons, which is 79% of our goal. This is the <br />first time Lino Lakes has not made the goal. <br /> <br />One of the problem is that when the residents recycling container is full they put the <br />recycling into the garbage instead. Would like to see recycling more often than every <br />two weeks. <br /> <br />Organic in 2016 was 183 participants and up to date is now 201 participants. <br /> <br />Ms. Kaufenberg was wondering how we could get the schools involved. <br /> <br />Ms. Jia mentioned that she was over at Columbia Heights school, it is very organized <br />with labeled containers, and staff that will watch and make sure the items are going <br />into the right container. <br /> <br />Ms. Andrzejewski stated the problem at Centennial is that the schools are short <br />staffed so one way for it to work would be to get students involved and staffing the <br />recycling lunchroom containers. <br /> <br />Ms. Jia stated Anoka County will pay for the sorting tables and bins but at this time, <br />the Centennial School District is not interested. <br /> <br />Ms. Andrzejewski thought a survey it would interesting about recycling and have the <br />results available for Earth Day. Such as if, your recycling container is full do you put <br />the recycling in the garbage container. Are you confused about recycling or what to <br />recycling? <br /> <br />Ms. Jia will work on the survey and invited board members to send her suggestions. <br /> <br />C. Community Gardens <br /> <br />Mr. Asleson brought to the board that the American Legion is thinking of making an <br />additional parking lot that will encroach into the community garden area. <br /> <br />Suggestion were to see if the soil in the garden area could be improved. <br /> <br />This will be discuss again at another Environmental Board meeting. <br />
