Subdivision 1. Restriction.
(a) For the purposes of implementing the waste management policies in section 115A.02 and metropolitan area goals related to landfill abatement established under this chapter, a person may not dispose of unprocessed mixed municipal solid waste generated in the metropolitan area at a waste
disposal facility unless the waste disposal facility meets the standards in section 473.849 and:
(1) the waste has been certified as unprocessible by a county under subdivision 2; or
(2)(i) the waste has been transferred to the disposal facility from a resource recovery facility;
(ii) no other resource recovery facility serving the metropolitan area is capable of processing the waste; and
(iii) the waste has been certified as unprocessible by the operator of the resource recovery facility
under subdivision 3.
(b) For purposes of this section, mixed municipal solid waste does not include street sweepings, construction debris, mining waste, foundry sand, and other materials, if they are not capable of being
processed by resource recovery as determined by the council. Subd. 2. County certification; office approval. (a) By April 1 of each year, each county shall submit an annual certification report to the office detailing:
(1) the quantity of waste generated in the county that was not processed prior to transfer to a disposal facility during the year preceding the report;
(2) the reasons the waste was not processed;
(3) a strategy for development of techniques to ensure processing of waste including a specific
timeline for implementation of those techniques; and
(4) any progress made by the county in reducing the amount of unprocessed waste.
The report shall be included in the county report required by section 473.803, subdivision 3.
(b) The Pollution Control Agency shall approve a county's certification report if it determines that the county is reducing and will continue to reduce the amount of unprocessed waste, based on the report
and the county's progress in development and implementation of techniques to reduce the amount of unprocessed waste transferred to disposal facilities. If the Pollution Control Agency does not approve a county's report, it shall negotiate with the county to develop and implement specific techniques to reduce
unprocessed waste. If the Pollution Control Agency does not approve two or more consecutive reports from any one county, the Pollution Control Agency shall develop specific reduction techniques that are designed for the particular needs of the county. The county shall implement those techniques by specific
dates to be determined by the Pollution Control Agency.
Subd. 3. Facility certification. The operator of each resource recovery facility that receives waste from counties in the metropolitan area shall certify as unprocessible each load of mixed municipal solid waste it does not process. Certification must be made to each county that sends its waste to the facility at intervals specified
by the county. Certification must include at least the number and size of loads certified as unprocessible and the reasons the waste is unprocessible. Loads certified as unprocessible must include the loads that would otherwise have been processed but were not processed because the facility was not in operation,
Docusign Envelope ID: 5D66C3E7-F3E1-44CE-81D8-6D9698D8B023

CHAPTER 16C. STATE PROCUREMENT
Minn. Stat. § 16C.05 CONTRACT MANAGEMENT; VALIDITY AND REVIEW. Subdivision 1. Agency cooperation and delegation.
Agencies shall fully cooperate with the commissioner in the creation, management, and oversight of state contracts. Authority delegated to agencies shall be exercised in the name of the commissioner and under the commissioner's direct supervision and control. A delegation of duties may include, but is not limited to, allowing individuals within agencies to acquire goods, services, construction, and utilities within dollar limitations and for designated types of acquisitions. Delegation of contract management and review functions must be filed with the secretary of state. The commissioner may withdraw any delegation at the commissioner's sole discretion. The commissioner may require an agency head or subordinate to accept delegated responsibility to procure goods, services, or construction intended for the exclusive use of the agency receiving the delegation.
Subd. 2. Creation and validity of contracts.
(a) A contract and amendments are not valid and the state is not bound by them and no agency, without the prior written approval of the commissioner granted pursuant to subdivision 2a, may authorize work to begin on them unless:
(1) they have first been executed by the head of the agency or a delegate who is a party to the contract;
(2) they have been approved by the commissioner; and
(3) the accounting system shows an encumbrance for the amount of the contract liability, except as
allowed by policy approved by the commissioner and commissioner of management and budget for routine, low-dollar procurements and section 16B.98, subdivision 11.
(b) Grants, interagency agreements, purchase orders, work orders, and annual plans need not, in the
discretion of the commissioner and attorney general, require the signature of the commissioner and/or the attorney general. A signature is not required for work orders and amendments to work orders related to Department of Transportation contracts. Bond purchase agreements by the Minnesota Public Facilities
Authority do not require the approval of the commissioner.
(c) Amendments to contracts must entail tasks that are substantially similar to those in the original contract or involve tasks that are so closely related to the original contract that it would be impracticable for a different contractor to perform the work. The commissioner or an agency official to whom the commissioner has delegated contracting authority under section 16C.03, subdivision 16, must determine that an amendment would serve the interest of the state better than a new contract and would cost no
more.
(d) A record must be kept of all responses to solicitations, including names of bidders and amounts of bids or proposals. A fully executed copy of every contract, amendments to the contract, and performance evaluations relating to the contract must be kept on file at the contracting agency for a time equal to that specified for contract vendors and other parties in subdivision 5. These records are open to public inspection, subject to section 13.591 and other applicable law.
(e) The attorney general must periodically review and evaluate a sample of state agency contracts to ensure compliance with laws.
Docusign Envelope ID: 5D66C3E7-F3E1-44CE-81D8-6D9698D8B023
(f) Before executing a contract or license agreement involving intellectual property developed or acquired by the state, a state agency shall seek review and comment from the attorney general on the
terms and conditions of the contract or agreement.
Subd. 2a. Emergency authorization.
The commissioner may grant an agency approval to authorize work to begin on a contract prior to the full execution of the contract in the event of an emergency as defined in section 16C.10, subdivision 2.
Subd. 3.
[Repealed by amendment, 2014 c 196 art 2 s 4]
Subd. 4. Contract administration.
A contracting agency shall diligently administer and monitor any contract it has entered into. The commissioner may require an agency to report to the commissioner at any time on the status of any
contracts to which the agency is a party.
Subd. 5. Subject to audit.
A contract or any pass-through disbursement of public funds to a vendor of goods or services or a grantee made by or under the supervision of the commissioner or any county or unit of local government must include, expressed or implied, an audit clause that provides that the books, records, documents, and accounting procedures and practices of the vendor or other party, that are relevant to the contract or transaction, are subject to examination by the contracting agency and either the legislative auditor or the state auditor, as appropriate, for a minimum of six years. If the contracting agency is a local unit of government, and the governing body of the local unit of government requests that the state auditor examine the books, records, documents, and accounting procedures and practices of the vendor or other party pursuant to this subdivision, the contracting agency shall be liable for the cost of the examination. If
the contracting agency is a local unit of government, and the grantee, vendor, or other party requests that the state auditor examine all books, records, documents, and accounting procedures and practices related to the contract, the grantee, vendor, or other party that requested the examination shall be liable for the
cost of the examination. An agency contract made for purchase, lease, or license of software and data from the state is not required to contain this audit clause.
Subd. 6. Authority of attorney general. The attorney general may pursue remedies available by law to avoid the obligation of an agency to pay under a contract or to recover payments made if services performed or goods received under the contract are so unsatisfactory, incomplete, or inconsistent that payment would involve unjust enrichment. The contrary opinion of the contracting agency does not affect the power of the attorney general under this subdivision. Subd. 7. Contracts with Indian tribes and bands.
Notwithstanding any other law, an agency may not require an Indian tribe or band to deny its sovereignty as a requirement or condition of a contract with an agency.

Collection Expenses: If residents are charged recycling fees for curbside or recycling events, waste abatement funds will
reimburse the difference between the fees collected and the cost of recycling or composting the materials.
Equipment: The cost to purchase, maintain and repair equipment that is used exclusively to operate the recycling or
composting program.
Containers: The cost for recycling or organics containers.
Promotion: The entire cost of a publication if totally dedicated to waste reduction, recycling or composting information or a
percentage of the cost for the portion of a municipal publication dedicated to waste management information.
Staffing: Labor and staffing directly related to recycling program administration and implementation may be funded up to 75%
of total funding allocation (not including Supplemental Funding). See Labor & Staffing section below for more information.
Ineligible Expenses
The following general operating expenses should NOT be submitted for reimbursement.
Standard Operational Expenses/Building Overhead: Since most of the municipal recycling coordinators are part-time
positions and staff serve multiple roles at the municipality, standard operating expenses including office space rental, leasing
office equipment and general office supplies, are not eligible for reimbursement.
Project Expenses: Specific to transportation, energy or ground water protection.
Collection Costs: The costs for general waste and recycling collection at municipal buildings, trash costs when advertised as
being accepted at a recycling/cleanup day, and costs associated with road side cleanup of illegally dumped materials should not
be included in this application.
General Municipal Staff: Staff time related to standard municipal operations (city administrator, office administration, facilities
management, finance and legal staff) are not eligible for reimbursement. If municipal staff do not assist the recycling
coordinator directly on activities to help the municipality achieve its recycling goal, e.g. communications and collecting,
processing or marketing recyclable materials and organics, their time will not be reimbursed.

Manager Notes for Reporters:
Lino Lakes Base + Enhancement + Labor & Staffing expenses cannot exceed $75,694.00. The amounts listed above add
up to $86,795.56 which is $11,101.56 more than $75,694.00. Re-TRAC should not have allowed the city to request more
funding in these categories than available. I thought this was going to be fixed for this years application but it is not. Re-
TRAC does state that a er Base + Enhancement Funds are subtracted, the city has $42,411.10 remaining for Labor &
Staffing expenses. The city requested $53,512.66 for Labor & Staffing so you need to ask for $11,101.56 additional
Supplemental Funding to off-set your additional intern expenses and to reach your anticipated budget of $91,995.56.

INTRODUCTION
In an effort to expand the applicant pool for current and future police officer vacancies, the
Public Safety Department applied for and was awarded grant funding under the 2025 Intensive
Comprehensive Peace Officer Education and Training (ICPOET) grant program.
BACKGROUND
There is currently a shortage of applicants for vacant police officer positions throughout the
state of Minnesota. Through the legislative process this year, the Minnesota Department of
Public Safety Office of Justice Programs created a grant program called the Intensive
Comprehensive Peace Officer Education and Training Program.
This grant program enables agencies to hire individuals who have a 2- or 4-year degree in any
field and want to make a career transition into law enforcement. The City received and
approved two ICPOET grants in 2024 and we’ve now been approved for another in 2025.
The grant award is $50,000 for expenses covering wages, benefits, recruitment, pre-hire
assessments, and training at Hennepin Technical College which will meet the MN POST Board
requirements to become a police officer in Minnesota.
RECOMMENDATION
Approve Resolution 24-141 authorizing staff to enter into the grant agreement for 2025 ICPOET
grant program.
