Loads are weighed; weights are then compiled over a month's period of time. Weights are broken out based on a composite ratio of the entire load. Oak Park Heights recycling year-end report 2020 page 3 15 of 48 RECYCLING DATA(SINGLE FAMILY) The Data was compiled from the single family homes. From this data — we are able to illustrate the weight per home (in lbs.) per month. In analyzing the single family data,we are able to provide the following observations: 2020 Average lbs. per household per month =42.08 lbs. per month • 2019 Average lbs. per household per month =45.78 lbs. per month • 2018 Average lbs. per household per month =43.86 lbs. per month • 2017 Average lbs. per household per month =42.62 lbs. per month • 2016 Average lbs. per household per month =45.64 lbs. per month • 2015 Average lbs. per household per month =49.85 lbs. per month 2020 Annual Net total tons collected for single family were 275.37 • 2019 Annual Net total tons collected for single family were 300.02 • 2018 Annual Net total tons collected for single family were 289.46 • 2017 Annual Net total tons collected for single family were 281.29 • 2016 Annual Net total tons collected for single family were 301.22 • 2015 Annual Net total tons collected for single family were 329.03 Additional Trends: Tennis is confident that we able to capture more recycling tonnage because we are providing a one-sort collection process that offers the residences the convenience of collecting additional recyclable materials and larger items such as corrugated cardboard boxes which otherwise may end up in the trash. Also, we are able to collect more types of plastics. k' J 16 of 48 Oak Park Heights recycling year-end report 2020 page 4 RECYCLING COMPOSITE STUDY Over the years of the contract we have done extensive recycling composite studies. We did this by keeping all loads from an entire week from the City of Oak Park Heights and process it though our MRF (Material Recovery Facility). Once the material is unloaded from the trucks it is sorted into each category, as listed below. Each of the categories were then weighed and documented. The results of the composite study were then entered back into the monthly reports in which you receive monthly. As of 2020, we have taken a look at all of the past data that we have collected and have decided to base our composite break-out off of the facility as a whole. We have come to this decision as all of the cities that we service, contracted or not, have had very similar ratios of material in their past composite studies. Why do a composite study? Having a good understanding of the recycling composition provides us with data that may assist us in adjusting the recycling program to fit the needs of the Residents. With ongoing changes in the economy, cultural and even changes in the home, we can develop more available markets, increase processing technologies to handle more items and enhance educational materials to instruct residents on proper recycling procedures.

Over the years, recycling markets have been able to recycle more and more items out of the waste stream. They have also been able to determine what resources are saved by recycling various materials. In this report we were able to convert the types of recycling materials into resources saved.

We continue seeing changes with regulations that have been influenced by China's markets even though we keep all of our recyclable materials in the United States, mostly in the Midwest. We saw higher residential recycling volumes this year because many families were newly homebound due to Covid-19. The metal markets have slowly been working their way back to where pricing was back in 2018 but are still significantly low. The paper and cardboard markets are back in a comfortable place but again have room for growth. Plastic markets hit their rock bottom this year but, with the cost of crude oil projecting an increasing 2021,we are hopeful that the plastic market will follow suit. Lastly,the glass market,with only one processor in the area,the commodity has been at a plateau for the last few years. With the Ni-Hot machine, we installed a few years back; we can capture more glass than in previous years which helps get more material to the processor. The processor is able to reclaim at least 90%of the broken glass to be made into new food and beverage containers. The outlook for 2021 Markets are starting to stabilize, but will continue with the strict regulations on contaminates and clean material. With co-mingle curb side recycling it makes it easier to recycle but it is important to clean out your food containers, and make sure you are only placing items listed in your recycling brochure loosely into the recycling cart. Ali m _ Oak Park Heights recycling year-end report 2020 page 7 19 of 48 SUMMARY OF YEAR-END RECYCLING REPORT The 2020 Oak Park Heights Year-end Recycling Report provides up-to-date information from the City's recycling activities over the past year. Each section of this report details the data that was collected, entered and calculated to contribute to meeting our goals. In the report we have illustrated the composition of recyclables, itemized volumes of recyclables from single family homes as they relate to each break-out of each separate commodity. We also provide information on how the City's recycling efforts will impact our environment. This year, Oak Park Heights's average lbs. per month were 42.08 per home per month and total tonnage was 275.37. In 2021, we will maintain the comprehensive recycling program we offer with the additional types of plastics, metals and linens. Together with the support of The City of Oak Park Heights we will maintain these high standards of recycling for the residents.

J How Five Cities Tackled Eviction Amidst the COVID-19 Pandemic 8 Learn How Five Cities Tackled Eviction Amidst the COVID-19 Pandemic The United States was facing a housing crisis long before the COVID-19 pandemic—one driven by high rental costs, a shrinking availability of quality housing, wage stagnation that has particularly challenged renter households and racial inequities embedded within the housing system. With evictions as one outcome of this crisis, pre-pandemic statistics estimate that one out of every 20 renters face an eviction each year, with the rate for Black renters more dire at one out of every 11 households. ■ 22 of 48 8, ®4 ®: Power, Protests, & Politics: A New Era of Local-Federal Local Governments Win Social Uprisings Partnership Impounded Car SCOTUS Case ■ ■ ■ iff Industry News What We're Reading: • The Supreme Court Decision That Saved States Billions - Governing (January 22, 2021) • Strapped local governments are turning to private developers to finance their projects -New York Times (January 20, 2021) • Outgoing Jackson CAO Robert Blaine presented with the key to the city - WLBT 3 (January 19, 2021) • New Program Offers Loans To Small Businesses In OKC -News 9 (January 19, 2021) 23 of 48 Announcements Leading With Urgency - Annual Report 2020 Throughout what was one of the most challenging years for local leaders in our nation's history, the persistence and bold leadership of municipal officials helped drive important national conversations about the needs of cities, towns and villages and their residents during an historic public health crisis.

FCC Opens Comment Period for Emergency Broadband Benefit The Federal Communications Commission has opened a brief comment period for the emergency broadband benefit authorized by the appropriations and COVID aid omnibus legislation passed in late 2020. The benefit is the first of its kind and its success or failure could influence policymaking on future dedicated broadband benefit programs for consumers as federal interest in digital equity expands. For a template comment letter and instructions on filing a comment letter from your community, click here. The FCC will accept comments in its Electronic Comment Filing System through January 25, and reply comments through February 16, in WC Docket No. 20-445. EPA Finalizes Revised Financial Capability Guidance On Jan. 12, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency finalized the 2021 Financial Capability Assessment for Clean Water Act Obligations. The revised guidance acknowledges the economic burdens on residents and moves away from relying on Median Household Income as a primary metric for determining affordability. Instead, it allows consideration other socio-economic factors that more accurately reflect what a community and its residents can afford. The guidance provides two frameworks or options that communities can choose from when submitting information for determining a schedule for meeting Clean Water Act (CWA) requirements. The additional flexibility, transparency and potential financial relief will help cities, counties and utilities meet CWA obligations in a more cost-effective manner. The guidance has not been published in the Federal Register and is therefore subject to review by the new Biden Administration.
