LAKE ELMO CITY COUNCIL MINUTES APRIL 18, 1996 Councilman Hunt reported that the Agriculture Zone committee will hold workshops on Monday, April 24, at 6:00 p.m. and Tuesday, April 25, at 4:30 p.m. to discuss uses in Ag zone. Councilman DeLapp pointed out the City ordinance states an accessory building is required to have a maximum roof height of fourteen feet. A resident would like to house a motor home, but this is not possible when accessory buildings are required to conform with the architecture of the principle building. DeLapp suggested that restrictive heights on accessory buildings be studied by the Planning commission and the new planner. 10. CITY ADMINISTRATOR'S REPORT: A. Recommendation from Solid Waste Advisory Committee Recycled Product Procurement: The Solid Waste Advisory Committee recommended that the Recycled Product Procurement Administrative Policy adopted by the City of Oakdale be adopted by Lake Elmo. M/S/P John/Hunt - to direct the staff to prepare an Administrative Policy 95-01 for Recycled Product Procurement as amended (change date) for the May 2, 1995 council meeting. (Motion passed 5-0). Compost Stickers: The Solid Waste Advisory Committee recommended that 1996 compost stickers be numbered. They felt there was no accountability now, and numbering the tickets will resolve that problem. The difference in the cost of the stickers is 4 cents per sticker -- from 16 cents to 20 cents each which would amount to approximately $64 per year. M/S/P Conlin/John - to direct the staff to have the compost stickers for 1996 numbered. (Motion passed 4-1:Hunt:He didn't feel there have been problems that would warrant this increase). Sharing and Caring Hands: The Solid Waste Advisory Committee recommended that the City incorporate into this fall recycling schedule, and make a yearly program the pick up of mittens, jackets, blankets, hats, etc. much as the city did last year and donated to Sharing and caring Hands. The Committee further recommended that the recipient of the goods be reviewed each year. M/S/P Conlin/DeLapp - to accept the recommendation of the Solid Waste Committee for an annual pick up of jackets, mittens, gloves, blankets, and other warm clothing donated to Sharing and Caring Hands, and that the Committee coordinates this effort including a recommendation of the yearly recipient of the collected goods. (Motion passed 5-0).
