It is my understanding that in the very near future, Veolia will be sending out the CEC charges for 2006 and likely for 2007, these funds are then to be provided to the County. Considering this pending billing, I would like to hold a short discussion about this continuing matter. I have nothing inherently new to apprise Council Members of, but a discussion about the topic is worthwhile to determine if there are any new understandings or possible approaches.

Of interest is the definitional section affecting garbage, recyclables and refuse which identifies that which is to be picked up by the hauler. Those definitions are as follows: Garbage means animal and vegetable waste resulting from the handling, preparation, cooking, service and consumption of food. Refuse is solid waste from residences in City owned and operated buildings that is the result of normal operation, including garbage and rubbish specifically excluding compost, yard waste, recyclables and toxic and hazardous waste. Refuse further excludes industrial, commercial, agricultural and construction garbage or rubbish and wastes. Of specific interest as well is the definition of rubbish which is material which is not covered by the contract and must be paid for separately by the residents of the - City Council City of Oak Park Heights March 16, 2000 Page 2 community for its disposal. That definition provides as follows: Rubbish is inorganic solid waste, including ashes, consisting of combustible and noncombustible wastes, dirt, household construction materials, cement, bricks, crockery, and other nonreusable waste. Rubbish also includes nonrecyclable types of glass, paper, cardboard, and metal cans. The contract also specifies and defines toxic and hazardous wastes which are excluded from the terms and provisions of the contract. As you are aware, the contract requires that homeowners keep all garbage and refuse in a container provided by the hauler. Surcharges are assessed for removal of items beyond that which fits into the container. Attachment A to the contract provides for the charges for the collection service. Attachment B specifies the additional refuse charges either for extra refuse beyond that which fits in the provided containers, as well as for air conditioners, stoves, water conditioners, furnaces, water heaters, washers, dryers, refrigerators, freezers, miscellaneous heavy appliances and Christmas trees. You will note that Attachment B presently provides that the service charge for removal of those items commonly referred to as white goods is provided for within the standard monthly service charge. I attach copies of the pertinent portions of the contract and the two attachments for your review. Yours very truly, Mark J. Vierling MJV/jp Enclosure cc: Tom Melena Garbage ,means animal and vegetable waste resulting from the handling, preparation, cooking, service and consumption of food.

Refuse further excludes industrial, commercial, agricultural, and construction garbage or rubbish and wastes. Rubbish is inorganic solid waste, including ashes, consisting of combustible and noncombustible wastes,dirt,household construction materials,cement,bricks, crockery,and other nonreusable waste. Rubbish also includes nonrecyclable types of glass, paper, cardboard, and metal cans. Toxic and hazardous wastes, are waste materials including but not limited to poisons, wastes, radioactive materials, flammable or explosive materials, and similar harmful chemicals and wastes which require special handling and must be disposed of in a manner to conserve the environment and protect the public health and safety. • A.

CST Fax-on-Demand Document No. 9208 Friday, February 18, 2000 Internet Address: http://stats.bls.gov/ro5news.htm Consumer Price Index for Minneapolis-St. Paul, MN-WI Second Half 1999 Semiannual Average and 1999 Annual Average Consumer prices in the Twin Cities increased 2.3 percent in the 2nd half of 1999, the U.S. Department of Labor's Bureau of Labor Statistics reported today. This was above 2nd half gains averaging 1.3 percent over the previous five years. The Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) for the 2nd half 1999 was 165.1 (1982-84=100). Cons finer prices in Minneapolis-St. Paul rose'a.2 percent in 1999. This was above gains of 2.3 percent in 1997 and 1.9 percent in 1998. Peter J. Hebein, Regional Commissioner for the Bureau in Chicago, said a 12.9 percent increase in energy costs was responsible for about one-third of the 2nd half increase. Had energy costs remained unchanged, the overall index would have gained only 1.5 percent. Rising costs for shelter and transportation were additional factors in the 2nd half gain. The education and communication component and the other goods and services component both registered large gains but with little impact on the overall index. Relatively small increases were noted in the food and beverages and medical care components. The apparel and recreation components both posted declines from the 1st half 1999. The housing component advanced 2.2 percent in the 2nd half. About half of this rise was attributed to a 1.3 percent increase in shelter costs. Most of the remaining increase was due to an 8.4 percent hike in the fuel and utilities index. Utility natural gas service charges were up 12.7 percent and electricity charges were up 5.6 percent from the l't half. In 1999, housing costs rose 2.9 percent (1998 annual average to 1999 annual average). This was in-line with annual gains over the previous three years. Shelter costs were up 3.4 percent, matching the rise in 1998. The fuel and utilities index rose 3.6 percent in 1999 following a slight decline a year earlier.

Just over half of the latest rise was attributed to a 17.5 percent hike in gasoline prices. This was the first increase in gasoline prices in the past six half-year periods. The transportation component increased 4.7 percent in 1999 following a 1.5 percent setback a year earlier. Gasoline prices rose 6.1 percent in 1999 after falling 11.3 percent in 1998. The food and beverages component was up 1.5 percent in the 2nd half, well below 2"d half gains averaging 2.3 percent over the prior three years. The cost of food at home (grocery food) edged-up 0.9 percent compared to the cost of food away from home, which increased 1.9 percent. Both increases were below gains in the 2nd half one year earlier. The food and beverages component increased 3.3 percent in 1999, up from a 1.9 percent rise in 1998 but similar to annual increases averaging 3.1 percent between 1995-97. The education and communication component advanced 3.4 percent from the Pt half 1999 after slipping 0.3 percent in the 2nd half 1998. For the year, the education and communication component was 0.2 percent lower. The other goods and services component jumped 2.2 percent in the 2nd half, down from a 3.2 percent hike in the 2nd half 1998. Compared to 1998, the component was 10.0 percent higher. Medical care costs rose 0.5 percent in the 2"d half, well below the 3.2 percent hike in the 1" half 1999 and the 1.8 percent average 2nd half gain over the previous five years. For the year 1999, medical care costs rose 5.0 percent. This was similar to the gain in 1998 but above increases averaging 2.1 percent annually from 1995-97. The apparel component fell 1.3 percent in the 2nd half following a 3.2 percent drop in the 1" half. Apparel costs fell 3.4 percent in 1999, marking the 4'" annual decline over the past five years. This places the apparel index is at its lowest level since 1991. Recreation costs slipped 0.2 percent in the 2nd half following a 1.6 percent rise in the 18t half 1999. For the year, recreation costs were 2.1 percent higher. ## # CPI HOTLINE SERVICE PROVIDES LATEST INDEXES 24 HOURS A DAY The all items CPI-U and CPI-W for the U. S.

BRIEF EXPLANATION OF THE CPI The Consumer Price Index (CPI) is a measure of the average change in prices over time in a fixed market basket of goods and services. The Bureau of Labor Statistics publishes CPI's for two population groups: (1) a CPI for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) which covers approximately 80 percent of the total population and (2) a CPI for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers (CPI-W) which covers 32 percent of the total population. The CPI-U includes, in addition to wage earners and clerical workers, groups such as professional, managerial, and technical workers, the self-employed, short-term workers, the unemployed, and retirees and others not in the labor force. The CPI is based on prices of food, clothing, shelter, and fuels, transportation fares, charges for doctors' and dentists' services, drugs, and the other goods and services that people buy for day-to-day living. Prices are collected in 85 urban areas across the country from about 57,000 housing units and Approximately 19,000 retail establishments--department stores, supermarkets, hospitals, filling stations, and other types of stores and service establishments. All taxes directly associated with the purchase and use of items are included in the index. Prices of food, fuels and a few other items are obtained every month in all 85 locations. Prices of most other commodities and services are collected every month in the five largest geographic areas and every other month in other areas. Prices of most goods and services are obtained by personal visits of the Bureau's trained representatives. Mail questionnaires are used to obtain utility rates, some fuel prices, and certain other items. In calculating the index, price changes for the various items in each location are averaged together with weights which represent their importance in the spending of the appropriate population group. Local data are then combined to obtain a U.S. city average. Separate indexes are also published by size of city, by region of the country, for cross-classifications of regions and population-size classes, and for 27 local areas. Area indexes do not measure differences in the level of prices among cities, they only measure the average change in prices for each area since the base period. The index measures price change from a designated reference date- 1982- 84-which equals 100.0. An increase of 16.5 percent, for example, is shown as 116.5.

Anderlik said that irrigation uses a lot of water, and an odd/even sprinkling ban could reduce that use and make people more aware of their summer water usage.

Ken Heuer City Clerk 6141 Panama Avenue North Oak Park Heights, MN 439-4407 . 2- City of Oak Park Heights • PO Box 14168 57th St N Stillwater, MN 55082 Dear Mr City Administrator, I was contacted by one of your police officers the other day and told I was in violation of a city ordinance because of the items I had in my yard. Personally this is offensive to me as the violation is so small. I spoke with the officer and was told that at the request of certain city council members, a police sergeant had driven around deciding what violations were occurring in the residential areas. After being told to fix my yard, I did a little driving myself and was very upset by what I saw. Apparently it is OK for certain council members to violate the same ord I was told to be in compliance with. It is OK for the Mayor to have a piece of junk vehicle with expired plates and flat tires sitting in his parking lot but not us to have one in our driveway. (this would be a company van from the business he ran into the ground not unlike he is trying to do with the money from the city spending it on a bridge issue that only benefits a few select people in including himself but that is another issue) Other members of the city can have piles of rubble in their front yards because it is from their monument business and yet other members can have old ladders and garbage piled around the front of their house. The club also extends to the police department as one officer gets to park commercial vehicles in his driveway and pile portable bathrooms in the driveway. This is also a violation of your ord but none of these people I would imagine were told to fix these problems. I suggest you clean your own house before you come knocking on my door. If we are expected to fix the issues raised by your officers I would certainly hope the issues I just advised you of are addressed otherwise don't come back to my house unless your city attorney wants to spend quality time in the courthouse....... cc Stillwater Gazzette • • r- .t tJECIIIME APR 2 8 1998 r , • OAK PARK HEIGHTS , a Sot a, IvielnO � , To: Mayor and Council From:Thomas M.

Due to the fact that we are s month., we end up ring waste by more than 50%, when we add 100 units per stem. In this case, a deficit that was not anticipated as we put a deficit for the sy our numbers together. two actions by the Based on the above, we would recommend the following from the all-funds 1) Authorize the transfer of $23,000.00 Council; contingency reserve to the garbage utility �nd. The all-funds contingencyfunds and the other reserve is funded by $23,000.00 from the utility •Page 1 • • $27,000.00 from the general fund. This fund was anticipated for situations such as this and therefore, it is very appropriate for the utility contingency fund to pay for an offset deficit to the solid waste utility fund. The amount of funding necessary for the administration is $21,000.00. The other remaining $2,000.00 would cover the first four to six months of the shortfall as anticipated because of the increased number of units within the system. 2) Authorize a two-step phased in rate increase for our solid waste and recycling. Currently, our rates are S4.50 for a 35-gallon container, $5.45 for a 65-gallon container and $6.95 for a 95-gallon container. Staff recommends that effective October 1, 1999, those rates be increased to $5.00 per 35-gallon, $6.00 per 65-gallon and $7.50 per 95-gallon containers. We further recommend that as of July 1, 2000, those same rates be increased across the board by $.50 again so that by July of next year, we will be at $5.50 for a 35-gallon, $6.50 for a 65-gallon and S8.00 per 95-gallon. We should realize that we have a very unique solid waste contract in that not only does the contract call for this cost to cover all garbage removal, but also recycling, white goods removal and two semi-annual clean-ups in the City each year. We have found that in many communities, there is not a subsidy for this type of cost and as a result, citizens quite often have to go out on their own and are paying $20 - $30 per month for services that are not as extensive as those provided by the City of Oak Park Heights through this contract. Because of all of the above, we feel that the City is providing a very cost-effective service, and is still, with these modifications, keeping our budget in line and being financially sound as well as policy prudent by providing the subsidy and the suggested/recommended rates. If you have any further questions or comments, please let us know. Thomas M.

He questioned how we are going to be handling the fact that since we have volume based pricing for garbage and some of the residents that have the smaller 30 or 60- gallon cans have their lids open and just keep piling the garbage up in the can. He was under the impression that the lid was supposed to be closed. He stated that it penalizes the people that are paying more money for a 90-gallon can.

USA Waste Services companies in the Twin Cities Metropolitan area currently collect, transport and dispose of over 300 tons per day of residential garbage and refuse, the volume of garbage and refuse generated by the Oak Park Heights, approximately 16 tons per week, would easily be added to our current collection volume. • • USA Waste Services companies in the Twin Cities Metropolitan area currently collect, transport and dispose yard waste from over 30,000 homes on a weekly collection basis. Yard waste is collected during the months of April 1 through November 30 in some communities and year round in others.

Customer Service: Customer service is the cornerstone of the USA Wastes' family of companies. USA Wastes' goal is to provide customer service unequaled in the market at a competitive price. Currently, USA Waste utilizes the customer service center concept. All residential customer service calls are directed to the customer service center located in St. Paul, MN. The Customer Service Representatives have to ability to solve the customer's issue on the spot. Action required items such as special pick ups or late set outs are transferred to the In House Customer Service Supervisor, The In House Customer Service Supervisor is directly responsible for the drivers in the field and is the drivers direct supervisor. The In House Customer Service communicates any additional or special pickups to the drivers in the field. The drivers "clear" their route areas with their direct supervisor thus avoiding any authority issues. The customer service center is open from 7:30am to 5:00pm to answer customer calls. USA Waste also utilizes On Street Customer Service Supervisor to follow up in the field on customer and driver issues. An On Street Customer Service Supervisor is in the community daily on the community's collection days and would directly oversee the collection activities for the City of Oak Park Heights from the field. USA Waste also utilizes a customer complaint log for logging customer complaints. Customer complaints are tracked from the time the complaint is received until the complaint has been resolved to the satisfaction of the customer. USA Waste also understands the importance of projecting a clean professional image to the general public while servicing the community. Therefore, USA Waste washes its collection vehicles on a weekly basis and repaints the vehicles ad needed. Collection vehicles will meet all DOT regulations and will be available for annual inspections by the City. Customer owned containers and property are always treated with respect, if a customer's property is damaged by one of our service providers, the damaged property is replaced or compensated for. • • 3. Reporting Requirements: USA Waste has the capability to report quantities of wastes and recyclable items on a daily, weekly, monthly and year to date basis for both material collected and material shipped or disposed of. Enclosed with this response are sample tonnage reports for your review. The reports provided are samples and can be modified to meet the City's requirements. Recyclable materials collected in a commingled fashion are reported based on actual weight percentages of the processed material. All certified weight receipts are kept at the administration offices and are available for the City's inspection if requested. Gross monthly revenue from the sale of recyclable materials along with monthly disposal information for white goods, garbage and refuse, and yard waste can be incorporated in the monthly reports to the City. Currently USA Waste utilizes route schedules or route lists to identify customers and the customers service level, The route schedule is also used to identify customers who are recycling or have yard waste or have additional items set out for collection. The driver simply indicates on his route list if a customer has recycling, yard waste or etc. out for collection. The driver also uses the route list to identify customers who are "not out" at the time of collection and indicates the time he or she was at the customers location. 4. Disposal and Storage: The intended location of disposal of the following materials: Garbage and Refuse: Garbage and Refuse collected in Washington County by United Waste Systems of MN, Inc. is currently being delivered to our transfer station we currently own and operate. It would be our intention to utilize this transfer station to tip the garbage and refuse from the City of Oak Park Heights. The garbage and refuse tipped at the Stillwater transfer station would then be loaded into semi trailers to be shipped to Central Landfill Facility. Daily tonnage information could be supplied to City officials regarding the amount or garbage and refuse that was collected from the City of Oak Park Heights. The current tipping fee contracted with Central Landfill is $38.00 per ton. Yard Waste: Yard waste from the City of Oak Park Heights could be delivered to a number of yard waste composting facilities. The SKB Environmental yard waste composting facility, The Burnsville Sanitary Landfill composting facility, The SMC yard waste composting facility and Buerbl Landscaping yard waste facility have been used by United Waste Systems in the past year. If United Waste was awarded the opportunity to propose service to the City of Oak Park Heights, we would enter into an agreement with one or more of these companies to accept the yard waste from the City of Oak Park Heights. Large Items: Large Items would be disposed of at the Transfer Station in Stillwater. White Goods: The collection and disposal of white goods would be subcontracted to a licensed • • appliance recycler such as JR's Appliance Disposal. The white goods would be recycled by the licensed appliance recycler. Recyclables: Recycling materials collected within the City of Oak Park Heights would be delivered to an intermediate processor of recyclables. United Waste Systems currently utilizes the following recyclable material processors: Waste Management/Recycle America, Super Cycle Inc., Recycle Minnesota Resources, Inc., and Weyerhauser Inc. It would be our intention to enter into a materials delivery contract with one of these recyclable material processors. No material would be stored by the company, the materials would be delivered directly to the processors or disposal point via the route collection vehicles. Other Services: Garbage and Refuse cart provided to each dwelling unit the City. United Waste Systems is a strong supporter of collecting materials as efficiently and as cost effective as possible, therefore, we would like to continue the use of carts for the collection of garbage and refuse. Carts offer a number of advantages to customer owned cans, some of the advantages are as follows: Uniform animal resistant collection containers. Volume based sizes, 30, 60, and 90 gallon sizes available. Automated collection capability. Large wheels allow carts to be rolled to the collection point easily. City Clean Ups: Spring and fall cleanups have a significant impact on the amount of special items that are set out for collection. The City should explore the option of having a spring and fall clean up day. The cost for the clean up could be set as a cost per item the day of the clean up or as a labor and disposal charge from the contract or as part of the monthly rate charge to the resident. A cost estimate for the clean up would be $50.00 per hour per truck and operator plus disposal.

Present: Councilmembers Beaudet, Robert, Turnquist and Swenson. Staff Present: City Administrator Robertson, City Attorney Vierling and Administrative Intern Mesko. Jeff Glewwe from United Waste Services was present . Yard Waste Bags - Glewwe said that UWS would like to distribute the bags directly, instead of from Ace Hardware and Cub Foods, as is currently done. Council said the initial distribution of the bags was not satisfactory and that this new proposal should serve Oak Park Heights residents more efficiently. Glewwe said that he feels the new plan should work well; residents will need to call UWS by the Thursday prior to their Friday pick-up to receive up to 20 bags . Councilmember Beaudet said that he did not feel that 20 was an appropriate number of bags; residents should be able to get more bags at one time if they want to. Glewwe said that he thought the number was accurate based on figures received and calculated by UWS, and that residents can get 20 bags every week if they so desire. Beaudet then said that he had some concerns over the accuracy of UWS' s garbage estimates, but Glewwe said that he felt confident that two years of data had given him accurate information from which to base his estimates . Council then asked Glewwe how residents would be notified of the proposed changes. There were several ideas proposed, and it was agreed that a flyer would be put on the containers or current residents noting the change and that UWS would also include flyers in local publications to notify residents . Ace Hardware and Cub Foods will continue to have bags available for residents during the transition period. Commercial Pick-Up - There were some questions by the Council about the prices quoted for commercial pick-up in Oak Park Heights . Councilmember Swenson and Mayor Schaaf agreed to meet with UWS to try and find a compromise that would serve the commercial Oak Park Heights community while still being beneficial to UWS. Dumpster Prices - Councilmember Robert told Glewwe that the Council has received a number of complaints from residents about the price and availability of dump box prices . Glewwe said that residents need to specifically tell UWS when ordering a dump box that they are Oak Park Heights residents to receive a lower rate. Council then directed UWS to establish a reservation system for Oak Park Heights Oak ParkHeights residentsshouldreceive priority. gdteto the atecs monopolyS has a and a S 2 - Council Workshop Minutes 08-19-97 CS I- Council expressed dissatisfaction with the price of a 10 cubic yard clean load box. Councilmember Beaudet suggested that the (,J price should be reduced from $190 to $180 . Council agreed and v-,„) directed UWS to make the change. Council then directed staff to distinguish between clean and dirty loads and list the price changes in the next City newsletter. There were some questions about whether the City is paying for carts still at some of the vacant lots in the MN/DOT area. Staff was instructed to provide a list to UWS of the houses in the MN/DOT area so those can be taken off the route list. Glewwe also proposed that the City may want to consider going to a sticker program rather than the current bag use. Glewwe said that the stickers would probably cost between $1 . 50-$2 . 00 each. Bags currently cost between $1 . 60-$2 . 00 each. Staff was directed to determine how many bags the City presently has and present figures to Council. Councilmember Turnquist, seconded by Swenson, moved to adjourn at 6: 00 p.m. Carried 5-0.

Junker Sanitation provided 3 sizes of containers for this purpose,96 gallon, 64 gallon and 30 gallon. The 64 gallon size is the same price as the previous pick-up charge, $18.00 per month. The 96 gallon size is$20.00 per month. The 30 gallon bag is for senior citizens and disabled persons at a cost of$14.50 per month. The City subsidizes $11.50 per month for the 64 and 96 gallon container and $9.25 per month for the 30 gallon bag. The balance is charged to the resident on their quarterly utility bill. Per the contract with Junker Sanitation, apartment buildings would be charged the 64 gallon container size per apartment unit. In the past Greenbrier Apartments had a dumpster which was handled through Junker Sanitation. The City did not set the fees or collect the fees. This was handled directly with the hauler. At the June 28, 1993 council meeting it was discussed allowing a 50% subsidy to the new apartment complexes the City had not previously subsidized for the first year of collection and 100%the following year based on the recycling controls. The first year was to be from July 1, 1993 to December 31, 1993. Therefore, Greenbrier was only subsidized $5.75 per unit per month for 6 months. As of January 1, 1993, Greenbrier received full City subsidy of$11.50 per unit per month. We received several complaints from Mr. Grieling. The complaints were forwarded to Mr. Junker at which time Mr. Junker agreed to rebate Greenbrier apartments a portion of the garbage fees. The City requested but never received any documentation regarding this rebate. Several phone calls were made by myself requesting this information from Mr. Junker. A letter of request was also sent by the City Administrator. In May Mr. Junker informed me (by phone) that he hadn't refunded Greenbrier due to an agreement he had with Kingwood Management as to where the containers were to be placed at Greenbrier Apartments. Two spots were to be made for the containers, one on each side of the buildings and it had not been done yet, therefore he refused to refund Greenbrier. • • August 16, 1994 Page 2 Councilman Seggelke and Councilman Kern met with Carol Greethurst, Rob Heimerl, Jim Junker and Chad Junker on July 26, 1994 to try to resolve this situation. Mr. Junker made a committment to help Greenbrier upgrade the cart storage facility. Councilmen Seggelke's and Kern's position is that this is a fair and reasonable effort on the part of Junker Sanitation to work with the owner of Greenbrier Apartments to resolve the issue of an appropriate facility. It is anticipated the upgrading of this facility will resolve the situation. 612 439 2923 411 N0.103 P001 08/22/94 13:34 ECKBERG• FIRM 4 OPH t' 4, LAW OFFICES OF E,CKBERG, LAMMERS, BRIGGS, WOLFF 8c VIERLING 1$35 NORTMWF,STERN AVENUE SjTILLWATER.MINNESOTA 55082 tt5►�4G�„g�78 FAX I2)(612) 0-28 8 L ,j M J.gCKGERG 923 JAMES F. ►,j.MMER$ ROBERT G.

Box 2010 •Stillwater, Minnesota 55082 August 8 , 1994 Councilman Seggelke City of Oak Park Heights 14168 57th St . N. Oak Park Heights , MN 55082 Councilman Seggelke : Just a follow up to the progress in the recycling at the Greenbrier Apartments . Our residents have been participating very well ; however , some have tried to recycle plastic which was not on the list of items to recycle . The first week of recycle pick up went very well ; however , we had just received the containers the day prior to pickup. The following week (August 4 , 1994) , Junker ' s left some items behind due to having plastic mixed in. Also , it was theagreement stated that once Junker ' s picked up the recycling they return the containers to the laundry rooms as proof that it was being picked up. Ten containers were stacked up and set next to the middle building of the complex . As for today ' s recycling , there were additional items (cardboard) that was left next to the garbage containers that Junker ' s left a message with the lain company doing the lawn (not Kingwood Management ' s lawn crew, is contracted directly from the owner ) , that they would not pick up due to the cardboard not being broke down properly and one box had clothing items inside of it . Along side the cardboard there was an old air conditioner that was not picked up either . As for the garbage containers , there has been no apparent problems now that the recycling is not getting mixed in with the containers . I am sorry I could not attend tonight ' s meeting . If you have any questions , I can be reached at 439-7812 . Sincerely , ,idfi lege 0.1,70 - Carol L. Greethurst Property Manager Kingwood Management managing agent for Greenbrier Partners cc : Bob Grieling 111 On Wednesday, July 20, 1994, at approximately 4 : 30 p.m. I called Junker Sanitation' s office and spoke with Margaret inquiring about why the garbage pickup was missed on Monday July 18, 1994 at the Greenbrier Apartments. She said she didn' t know but would look into it . I called again on Thursday , July 21, 1994 at approximately 10:00 a.m. to find out what she had found out . I told her that my conversation with my resident caretaker was that they were there was a truck that stopped by on Wednesday and they only looked at the garbage and left . , Margaret said she didn' t know why Greenbrier was not pickeup "she only works there" and that I should talk to Jimmy and that he was at the shop and she gave me the number to call . I called the shop and Chad answered the phone, I asked for Jimmy and Chad asked if he could call me back. I said no due to that I wanted an answer and was mad. Jimmy came onto the phone and I asked why the garbage was not pickup at Greenbrier on Monday. He said he didn' t know and was checking into it . Jimmy continued to tell me to never call him with this kind of attitude and besides Greenbrier is always a pig pen. I told him it wouldn' t be that way if he would pick up the garbage and recycling like he was suppose to. I said I would be at the council meeting on Monday with my log book showing what his service actually has been lately. He stated that every time they come to Greenbrier there is always 2 yards of trash on the ground and garbage mixed in with the recycling and besides he already talked with Barb O'Neal and she agrees with him. He also said he drives by there every day and it looks the same. I said that ' s pretty amazing when I drive by also and it is not the same and that I am always calling to have the extras and recycling picked up because they leave them there and if he really was driving by he would have seen these items being left behind. I said I guess the attorney will have to address these problems. Jimmy than said that attorney' s don' t know the law. I said, attorney ' s have a degree in law and I 'm sure he researched the situation prior to taking the case on. He said that is a bunch of bullshit and that he has been in the garbage business for 30 years and he knows the garbage laws not the attorney. I said, "oh, only Jimmy Junker knows the law" . Jimmy continued to argue, all I had to say is that I wanted the garbage picked up and that I 'm not the only dissatisfied customer . He said that was not true that Greenbrier was the only one ever complaining and wanted to know who the other people were. I said he should know seen how an attorney was involved in it . He then said that I was talking out both sides of my mouth and lying otherwise I would tell him who the other people were. He also wanted to know what kind of truck was there on Wednesday, because he has five different trucks that pick up different items. I said I didn' t know. He said, see you have now idea what the rules are so how do you think you can get away with this, why don' t you change your attitude missy. He said he had nothing further to say to me and said have a nice day "missy" and hunt u. . 111 • I called the City to talk with Barb O'Neal , but she sationnoIt in. had I left a message with Julie explaining the with Jimmy Junker and would like o discuss s itawithdvoBarb. coShe suggested that I possibly talk with talk with Barb. She also said thatramlot of people call the cier ty complaining about their service is mad s but o ouse I chvve wants to stand up to him and maybe Jimmy stood up to him. call with Julie, Jimmy Junker called me When I hung up from my office or back and stated, „have anota want grind becausecyourmybroth°err Juse shopw again becauseendeal with Don Bromen f to work there and he would only but this is my account at Skagen" . I said, I 'm sorry Jimmy Kingwood Management and he would have to deal with tome and do having not my brother previously employed by him had nothing getting the garbage picked up at Greenbrier .

As a result of that meeting, I have been requested to compile additional data effecting this issue which I expect to have completed by Friday of this week. The City of Oak Park Heights meets on Monday, May 23 , 1994 and this matter is, of course, an Agenda item. I expect that the City will take its position at the May 23 , 1994 meeting in response to the County's request to act as a collector of this service charge. I realize your earlier request to the City, imposed a May 15, 1994 decision n date, however, as you can see from the history of our contacts, City has not been in a position to act on this matter. I trust that your dates as imposed will be accordingly extended. Yours 'very truly, 5( Mark J. Vierling MJV/smp cc: Ms. LaVonne Wilson Mayor Barbara H. O'Neal • _ //• 5 e)// .

The RRSC ' will be used to collect funds to pay for services related to the Facility that are no longer funded by the tipping fee . 1 . Who Pays the RRSC: The RRSC will be assessed on 'residential and non-residential mixed municipal solid waste (MSW) generators. 2. Who Collects the RRSC: Licensed collectors of MSW will be required by ordinance to collect the RRSC from their customers in Ramsey and Washington Counties at the time of billing. 3. How the RRSC Is Structured: The RRSC is similar to the State of Minnesota 's fee for MSW, which was imposed in 1993. Both include a flat fee on residential customers and a volume-based fee on non-residential customers. The level of the fee collected, however, is different for the State versus the RRSC ( the State charges $2 per residential account per year, and $. 12 per non-compacted cubic yard and $.36 per compacted cubic yard for non-residential accounts) . 4. Level of the RRSC: There will be different RRSC's for residential and non-residential accounts. During 1994 the amounts of these fees will be: Residential : $1 .60 per residential customer per month. . Non—residential : $0.80 per non-compacted cubic yard of purchased capacity. $2. 40 per compacted cubic • capacity. Yard of purchased . Definitions: "Residential Generator" includes the following: a. A person who resides in a single residence; or b. A person residing in a building or at a site containing multiple residences , including a townhome or mobile home park, where each resident either has separate trash pickup, or is separately assessed for such service. Each dwelling • unit will be considered a residential generator if there is a separate waste collection for each resident, even if the � J 411 resident pays the owner or an association a monthly maintenance fee which includes the expense of waste collection. and the owner or association pays the waste collector for waste collection in one lump-sum . "Non-Residential Generator' includes the following: a. An industry , business , including a home-operated business, church. nursing home , nonprofit organization, schools and • other commercial accounts; or b . An owner of a building or site containing multiple residences, including a townhome or mobile home park, where one or more waste containers with a capacity of a least one ( 1) cubic yard is used, and no resident is separately assessed for such service; or c. A vendor who sells to customers waste collection bags or stickers supplied by a waste collector, the cost of which is a substitute for a waste collection fee. A 30 gallon bag equals . 15 cubic yard, and a 38 gallon bag equals . 19 cubic yard. 5. How a Waste Generator Can Appeal the RRSC: • Licensed waste collectors will determine which category of the RRSC will be collected from their customers. . Waste generators will be able to appeal to their County if they believe they have been incorrectly classified. . Licensed waste collectors will be able to appeal the amount of a RRSC to be collected if they believe it has been incorrectly classified. 6. When the RRSC Beains: The RRSC will be assessed to waste .generators beginning April 1 , 1994. 7. When Licensed -Waste Collectors Have toemit is the ecCollectors will have to remit the RRSC monthly tR RRSC collected for the previous month will be due by the twentieth • •f t. -meting month, beginning in May 1994. / 8. Where Licensed Waste Collectors Have to Remit the RRSC: Checks should be made payable and sent to: Ramsey/Washington County Resource Recovery Project, Suite C, 6989 No. 55th Street, Oakdale, MN 55128. 9. Forms: Licensed waste collectors will have to submit a Monthly Remittance Form with the funds remitted. Forms will be provided by the Resource Recovery Project. 10. Data Privacy: Most information submitted on the Monthly Remittance Form will be treated as a "trade secret" of the hauler, • 410 and will be treated as "private or "non-public" data under the Minnesota Government Data Practices Act . 11 . Non-Payment of the RRSC: . If the waste generator pays the entire RRSC to the licensed waste collector , the collector will be required to remit this entire amount to the Project. . If the waste generator does not pay any of the RRSC to the licensed waste collector, the collector will not need to remit the RRSC for that waste generator if. the collector makes a good faith effort to collect the RRSC and if the collector provides the generator 's name, address, time period and amount of RRSC billed, and amount of RRSC paid, for all accounts remaining unpaid for 90 days as of August 1 , 1994 and February 1 , 1995, on the appropriate form on August 20, 1994 and February 20, 1995. . If the waste generator pays only a portion of the RRSC, the licensed waste collector will have to remit that portion. The portion of the RRSC to be remitted will be the same proportion of the entire RRSC owed as the proportion of the entire bill " (including all charges except sales tax) paid to the collector. The remittance is due by August 20, 1994 and February 20, 1995, along with the generator's name, address, the time period and amount of RRSC bill and unpaid balance. )('12. Sales Tax: The Minnesota Department of Revenue (DOR ) has advised ' 4f the Project that waste Generators must pay sales tax on the RRSC. w 11 Licensed waste collectors will be required to collect this sales tax and remit it to DOR as part of the sales tax they remit to the , u' State, as determined by DOR . 13. Enforcement: The Counties and the Project will have audits performed periodically on licensed waste collectors to ensure that the RRSC is being collected and remitted properly. The Counties have various mechanisms available for enforcement of ordinance provisions related to the RRSC, including license revocation, criminal , and civil penalties . The Counties intend to contact generators that do not pay the RRSC upon notification by the hauler. 14. Future Chances in the RRSC: It is possible that changes will need to be made in the future in the level of the fee or in other aspects of the RRSC. The Counties and the Project will be monitoring the RRSC to determine how much is collected, how equitably it is being assessed, and other factors. Some changes could be made by County Board resolution, while other changes might require amendments to County ordinances.

However, for those cities which bill the generators for service, the county and city need to work together to develop procedures for collection and remittance of the service charge. Below is a review of some common questions asked in this process. 1. Who pay the charge? The charge is assessed to the generator. The city as the billing agent is asked to collect the charge from each generator and remit the charge to the county. 2. Can the County require the City to collect this charge? No. The county cannot require the city to collect the charge. The county is working cooperatively with those cities who are the billing agents. If the city does not collect the charge, the county will then need to bill separately all of the city's residential generators and collect the charge. 3. Does this service charge impact the hauler the city has a contract with? Since the city is providing the collection service for the hauler, this charge does not affect the hauler. However, the hauler's cost for disposal at the Resource Recovery Facility has been reduced. The cost in 1993 for disposal was $66.79/ton. Effective January 1, 1994, the cost was reduced to $50.00/ton. The county hopes that the net effect to the resident will be no change in their costs. The city will need to review its own contract with the hauler to determine actions needed to reflect the decrease in disposal costs. 4. To Who and When Does the City Remit the Collected Charges? The charges will be remitted to the Ramsey/Washington County Resource Recovery Project, 6989 North 55th Street, Suite C, Oakdale, MN 55128. The collection forms are attached. The city can decide, and inform the county, when is the best time to remit the charge, whether monthly, quarterly, or bi-monthly. +osoo e s` o'° �loi � a Printed on Recycled Paper 15%Post Consumer Waste AN EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY / AFFIRMATIVE ACTION EMPLOYER •`e 1,e 016.- • Residential Service Charge Ramsey and Washington Counties Resource Recovery Service Charge Monthly Remittance Form (Please Print or Type — See Instructions on Reverse Side of Form) Information contained in this report form becomes part of the Ramsey/Washington County Resource Recovery Project's official records on receipt by the Project and may be released to others to the extent authorized by the Minnesota Data Practices Act, Minnesota Statutes Chapter 13.

BOX 3803 • STILLWATER, MN 55082-3803 Office(612)430-6655•TDD(612)439-3220• Facsimile Machine(612)430-6730 FACT SHEET KEY ELEMENTS OF THE WASHINGTON COUNTY SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT SERVICE CHARGE Purpose of the Solid Waste Management Service Charge (Charge): Because the Ramsey and Washington County Boards have reduced the tipping fee at the Ramsey/Washington County Resource Recovery Facility in Newport, they have created a waste management service charge. The Charge will be used to collect funds to pay for services related to the Facility that are no longer funded by the tipping fee. 1. Who Days the Charge: The Charge will be assessed on residential and non-residential mixed municipal solid waste (MSW) generators. 2. Who Collects the Charge: Licensed collectors of MSW will be required by ordinance to collect the Charge from their customers in Ramsey and Washington Counties at the time of billing. 3. How the Charge is Structured: The Charge is similar to the State of Minnesota's fee for MSW, which was imposed in 1993. Both include a flat fee on residential customers and a volume-based fee on non-residential customers. The level of the fee collected, however, is different for the State versus the Charge (the State charges $2.00 per residential account per year, and $. 12 per non-compacted cubic yard and $.36 per compacted cubic yard for non-residential accounts). 4. Level of the Charge: There will be different Charges for residential and non- residential accounts. During 1994, the amounts of these fees will be: • Residential: $1.60 per residential customer per month • Non-residential: $0.80 per non-compacted cubic yard of purchased capacity $2.40 per compacted cubic yard of purchased capacity • Definitions: "Residential Generator" includes the following: a. A person who resides in a single residence; or b. A person residing in a building or at a site containing multiple . residences, including a townhome or mobile home park, where each resident either has separate trash pickup, or is separately assessed for such service. Each dwelling unit will be considered a residential generator if C:\WP51\DOCS\JUDY\SWMGMTCH `soson Q sI Printed on Recycled Paper �`�- �:{ 15%Post Consumer Waste AN EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY / AFFIRMATIVE ACTION EMPLOYER a.,.. • there is a separate waste collection for each resident, even if the resident pays the owner or an association a monthly maintenance fee which includes the expense of waste collection, and the owner or association pays the waste collector for waste collection in one lump-sum. "Non-Residential Generator" includes the following: a. An industry, business, including a home-operated business, church, nursing home, nonprofit organization, schools and other commercial accounts; or b. An owner of a building or site containing multiple residences, including a townhome or mobile home park, where one or more waste containers with a capacity of at least one (1) cubic yard is used, and no resident is separately assessed for such service; or 5. How a Waste Generator Can Appeal the Charge: • Licensed waste collectors will determine which category of the Charge will be collected from their customers. • Waste generators will be able to appeal to their County if they believe they have been incorrectly classified. • Licensed waste collectors will be able to appeal the amount of a Charge to be collected if they believe it has been incorrectly classified. 6. When the Charge Begins: The Charge will be assessed to waste generators beginning April 1, 1994. 7. When Licensed Waste Collectors Have to Remit the Charge: Collectors will have to remit the Charge monthly after it is collected. The Charge collected for the previous month will be due by the twentieth (20th) day of the following month, beginning in May 1994. 8. Where Licensed Waste Collectors Have to Remit the Charge: Checks should be made payable and sent to: Ramsey/Washington county Resource Recovery Project, 6989 North 55th Street, Suite C, Oakdale, MN 55128. 9. Forms: Licensed waste collectors will have to submit a Monthly Remittance Form with the funds remitted. Forms will be provided by the Resource Recovery Project. 10. Data Privacy: Most information submitted on the Monthly Remittance Form will be treated as a "trade secret" of the hauler, and will be treated as "private" or "non- public" data under the Minnesota Government Data Practices Act. 11. Non-Payment of the Charge: • If the waste generator pays the entire Charge to the licensed waste collector, the collector will be required to remit this entire amount to the Project. • If the waste generator does not pay any of the Charge to the licensed waste collector, the collector will not need to remit the Charge for that waste generator if the collector makes a good faith effort to collect the Charge and • • if the collector provides the generator's name, address, time period and amount of Charge billed, and amount of Charge paid, for all accounts remaining unpaid for 90 days as of August 1 , 1994 and February 1, 1995, on the appropriate form on August 20, 1994 and February 20, 1995. • If the waste generator pays only a portion of the Charge, the licensed waste collector will have to remit that portion. The portion of the Charge to be remitted will be the same proportion of the entire Charge owed as the proportion of the entire bill (including all charges except sales tax) paid to the collector. The remittance is due by August 20, 1994, and February 20, 1995, along with the generator's name, address, the time period and amount of Charge bill and unpaid balance. 12. Sales Tax: The Minnesota Department of Revenue (DOR) has advised the Project that waste generators must pay sales tax on the Charge. Licensed waste collectors will be required to collect this sales tax and remit it to DOR as part of the sales tax they remit to the State, as determined by DOR. 13. Enforcement: The Counties and the Project will have audits performed periodically on licensed waste collectors to ensure that the Charge is being collected and remitted properly. The Counties have various mechanisms available for enforcement of ordinance provisions related to the Charge, including license revocation, criminal , and civil penalties. The Counties intend to contact generators that do no pay the Charge upon notification by the hauler. 14. Future Changes in the Charge: It is possible that changes will need to be made in the future in the level of the fee or in other aspects of the Charge. The Counties and the Project will be monitoring the Charge to determine how much is collected, how equitably it is being assessed, and other factors. Some changes could be made by County Board resolution, while other changes might require amendments to County ordinances.
