ITEM: 5 MEMORANDUM 410 TO: MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL FROM: CLERK-ADMINISTRATOR PAULE ,&el" DATE: JULY 3, 1990 SUBJECT: RAMSEY COUNTY 1990-1991 CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PLAN AND MOUNDS VIEW COMPOST SITE Commissioner McCarty has requested that he and Assistant County Public Works Director Paul Kirkwold be provided a time on your July 9, 1990, agenda to present the County's 1990- 1991 Capital Improvement Plan. Enclosed is a copy for your information provided by Commissioner McCarty's office. Commissioner McCarty will also be accompanied by Mr. Zack Hansen, Solid Waste Division Manager for Ramsey County. Mr. Hansen will discuss the County's current activities in the area of solid waste management and recycling. At the time Commissioner McCarty was making arrangements for this presentation, Mr. Hansen contacted City Forester Rick Wriskey, and ultimately myself, to discuss drainage problems on the 411 City's compost site which are making a large portion of the site unusable during wet weather. I suggested that Mr. Hansen submit a letter to me for your consideration proposing a solution to the problem to be funded by the County. It was my thought that the Council would wish to discuss any improvements which might make the site more permanent in nature as it relates to the continued use of Ardan Park compost site as well as the advisability of the proposed improvements. Since Mr. Hansen will be at the Council meeting on July 9, I wanted to provide you with a copy of the letter this office received from him last Friday, June 29, in order that you may avail yourself of the opportunity to ask Mr. Hansen any questions regarding this proposal at that time. Staff is not proposing that a decision be made regarding this matter at the July 9 Council meeting unless it is your desire to do so. Otherwise, the item will be placed on the July 16 Agenda Session agenda for your consideration. DFP/BAB Enclosure
