Resource Conservation Advisory Board <br />Minutes <br />March 10, 2008 <br />Page 2 of 2 <br />Public Comments: <br />Kathy Kimberlin -There are large amounts of recyclable materials left at the <br />bus stop at Via Appia & South Boulder road. Her family removed 17 trash <br />bags worth. Is there any possibility of getting recycle bins and/or trash cans <br />at that location? <br />Tom Phare responded that he would discuss the matter with RTD and the <br />Parks department to see if anything can be arranged. Cost is an issue for the <br />city. <br />Laura Robinson: She has recently completed a Masters thesis about plastic <br />bag usage (such as grocery store bags). She wanted to know if there was <br />any possibility of developing programs to reduce plastic bag usage in the city. <br />Mark Persichetti responded that we would look into the possibility of those <br />types of programs. <br />Discussion: <br />LRCAB will meet with the city council at their 6/24 meeting for a joint meeting. <br />Board of Adjustment and Board of Building Code appeals will also be meeting <br />at that time. Possible topics of discussion raised were: <br />- Greenpoints / BuildSmart program <br />- Changes to the Comprehensive Plan to include Natural Resources / <br />Environment section developed 2 years ago <br />- Possible implementation of parts of Boulder County Sustainable Energy <br />Plan, which was already adopted by the council. All LRCAB members <br />were asked to review the document, and rank their top few points from the <br />plan. <br />- Xcel Energy will be putting on an Energy Conservation talk 5/28 at the <br />library <br />Meeting was adjourned at 9:05 pm <br />Board Members Present: Beth Armbuster, Mark Persichetti, Jenny Braus, <br />Annie Hughs, Ryan Hughes, Richard Smith <br />Board Members Absent: Victor Goldberg <br />Staff Members Present: Tom Phare <br />Guests: Lauren Albers <br />City of Louisville <br />Public Works Department 749 Main Street Louisville CO 80027 <br />303.335.4608 (phone) 303.335.4738 (fax) www_ci_louisville_co_us <br />
