RELEVANT LINKS: <br />Minn. Stat. § 115A.94, subd. <br />4f. Minn. Stat. § 604.02. <br />7. Joint liability limited <br />An organized collection agreement must not obligate a participating licensed <br />collector for damages to third parties solely caused by another participating <br />licensed collector, notwithstanding section 604.02 of the Minnesota Statutes. <br />The organized collection agreement may include joint obligations for actions <br />that are undertaken by all the participating collectors. <br />V. Conclusion <br />Cities have broad authority to regulate the collection and disposal of solid <br />waste. Cities exercise this authority subject to state and county oversight. <br />Cities should work closely with their city attorneys when exercising this <br />authority by requiring licenses, imposing fees and assessments, entering into <br />contracts, and adopting ordinances. Cities must comply with procedural <br />requirements in the organized collection statute before they may adopt <br />organized collection of solid waste. <br />League of Minnesota Cities Information Memo: 6/9/2022 <br />City Solid Waste Management Page 18 <br />
