City Council meeting of March 19, 1990 Page 2 The City Attorney received a letter from Mr. John Branniqan, representing the Zaluckyj's, requesting an opportunity to meet with the City staff to work out conditions of concern to both parties. Under the circumstances, the City staff has recommended that this matter be removed from the Council agenda until Mr. Brannigan, the City Attorney, and City staff have had an opportunity to discuss said issues. 8.1 YARD WASTE COMPOSTING AGREEMENT (WASHINGTON COUNTY) The City Council received a copy of the annual Memorandum of Agreement for yard waste composting, as submitted by Washinqton County, for their review. Site maintenance funding has been increased from $2,(_)00 to $2,40C), and monitoring expense has been increased from $2,500 to $4,100. The County is also requesting extended hours as indicated in Section 4. The one change that is currently being questioned by the City staff is that which requires the City to name the County as an additional named insured on the City's general liability insurance policy. In light of the fact that both the City and County have indemnification clauses in the existing agreement, the City staff cannot understand why this would be necessary. Also questioned is the advisability of adding Subsection G to the agreement as currently proposed although the balance of the agreement would appear to be acceptable. If this language can be easily added to our liability insurance policy at little or no cost to the City, than Subsection G may be acceptable. City Clerk, Mary Ann Creager, reported that the City's insurance agent, Gordy Beulke, had called the office and stated that the compost site could be added to the City's insurance, and the County can be named as an additional named insured, both at no cost tc the City. Atkinson made motion, Olson seconded, authorizing the Mayor and City Administrator sign the 1990 MEMORANDUM OF AGREEMENT FOR YARD WASTE COMPOSTING between the County of Washington and the City of Hugo. All aye. Motion Carried. RECYCLING AGREEMENT - DROP OFF CENTER The City Council received a copy of the Memorandum of Agreement for drop-off center recycling, as submitted by Washington County, for their review. The agreement has apparently been modified to meet the requirement of the State under the new SCORE legislation. The agreement appears to be consistent with our 1989 agreement. The amount of funds available from the County, for funding of the drop-off center, is $1,365. City staff recommends approval of the agreement subject to continued operation of the recycling distribution center by the Boy Scout Troop. The Council was also provided with a copy of the 1990 residential goals established for cities and townships by Washington County for tl eir rE_v iew.
