ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – DECEMBER 15, 2014 9 <br /> <br /> • The processing fee for all recyclable material commodities shall be $66.00 per <br />ton. <br /> • The Revenue Share on all commodities shall be split between the City and the <br />Contractor at a rate of 80% (City)/ 20% (Contractor). <br /> <br />City Planner Streff indicated that the current residential recycling services contract with Eureka <br />Recycling is set to expire on March 1, 2015. As proposed, the new contract with Republic <br />Services is set to begin on May 4, 2015, in order to allow additional time for cart delivery and to <br />avoid a cart rollout to approximately 2,500 households in winter weather conditions. Republic <br />Services has indicated that a more efficient rollout of a new cart system can be completed if the <br />current contract is extended. In order to cover this gap in services, Eureka Recycling has offered <br />to extend their contract for this additional time. Staff intends to bring a contract extension <br />agreement back to the Council at their next regular scheduled City Council meeting in January. <br /> <br />Mayor Grant questioned what the rates would be if the recycling were picked up on an every- <br />other-week basis. <br /> <br />City Planner Streff reviewed the rates for every-other-week recycling pickup from the five <br />vendors with the Council. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holden supported the recommendation for recycling pickup on a weekly basis. <br /> <br /> <br />2.
