Tom explained his role in composting and recycling. The Downtown Business Association (DBA) is paying Tom B this year to head up C&R operation for the Street Faire. Tom indicated that he wanted the LSAB to be “on board” with the effort. A big challenge is that Tom wants two people manning each waste collection station at the Street Faire. Community Gardens: Mary Ann forwarded a letter to Joe Stevens (Parks and Rec) and Malcom Fleming (City Manager). Details regarding the Community Garden is presented in that letter. Mary Ann also sent an email. 2 people volunteers from the Citizen side. rd GOCO Grant: Due March 3 or August sometime. We should write a grant! Division of Wildlife might have dollars available, too. As mentioned in the letter to Joe and Malcom, we need to decide which parcel we should use. The East site is preferred because it is larger and off the road a bit. We would need a handicap cut out and Dave Szabados can provide those costs numbers. It was suggested that we have a single issue study session ‘Community Gardens.” Energy: Study still pending. Consultant says they now have all data, and then need ot do their study. Delivery date still unknown. Dave Hsu offered to get more involved in getting the report finished. Trash Collection: The 5 year trash collection contract with Western Disposal is up soon. Dave Szabados is working on a new RFP. It would be good to build on what has been done. What additional items could be added to RFP? IE: Nat Gas trucks, Better data packages, could city own bins? RFP will be sent out after next study session, which is next week.
