1 Introduction <br /> The City of Mounds View has developed these standards as specific requirements for the <br /> storage, collection and transportation of solid waste. The goals of these standards are to: <br /> ♦ Achieve a reduction in waste generated in the City. <br /> ♦ Encourage the separation and recovery of materials and energy from waste. <br /> ♦ Ensure the protection of public health and safety and promote City cleanliness and <br /> livability. <br /> ♦ Provide high quality solid waste and recycling services in the most cost-effective manner <br /> possible. <br /> ♦ Promote best management practices in solid waste management to protect air quality,water <br /> quality, and natural resources. <br /> ♦ Be consistent with the requirements of the State statutes, State rules and Ramsey County <br /> ordinances, and with State and Ramsey County solid waste plans. <br /> ♦ Implement the City's Garbage and Recycling requirements in Chapter 50 of the City Code <br /> through detailed instructions. <br /> To accomplish the above goals, it is important for the City to have specific and consistent <br /> instructions to follow as part of the solid waste collection system. These standards do not replace <br /> or supersede the City Code. The City administrator's authority for adopting or amending these <br /> standards comes from Chapter 50 of the City Code. <br /> These standards address: <br /> ♦ Eligible items to be included in the garbage; <br /> ♦ Resident's garbage storage requirements; <br /> ♦ Recycling programs; <br /> ♦ Bulky waste, yard waste and other waste collection and disposal requirements; <br /> ♦ Multiple-unit and commercial solid waste collection and disposal requirements; <br /> ♦ Administrative fees; and <br /> ♦ Other collection system details that are part of the City's solid waste collection system. <br /> City Of Mounds View• 1 <br /> Solid Waste and Recycling Standards <br /> ,,/?,Q-4DOCSOPEN\MU210\313\990920.v7-10/8/25 <br />
