ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – DECEMBER 15, 2014 3 <br /> <br />City Planner Streff reported that staff is continuing to work with Republic Services to negotiate <br />the final contract for residential recycling services. Staff plans to have a final contract prepared for <br />the Council’s consideration at the City Council meeting on January 12, 2015. A few highlights of <br />the draft contract have been provided below. <br /> <br /> • The Contractor shall be responsible and pay for all aspects of cart management <br />and operations including; receiving, assembly, distribution (aka new cart “roll <br />out”), excess cart inventory, (i.e., provide “warehouse” services), cart <br />switches/replacements, cart maintenance, repair or replace damaged carts, and <br />manage all aspects of warranty repairs. <br /> • The Contractor shall provide recycling collection services at the City owned <br />and operated buildings and parks at no additional cost to the City. <br /> • The Contractor and the City shall work together in the preparation and <br />distribution of educational materials to insure accurate information and <br />program directions. The Contractor shall pay for the annual design, printing <br />and mailing of a curbside program flyer. <br /> • The Contractor shall conduct its own promotions and public education to <br />increase participation. The publicity and promotion program may include <br />articles for city newsletters, public appearances, provision of information for <br />local environmental groups, or attendance at public events sponsored by the <br />City. The Contractor shall at a minimum provide one (1) newsletter article per <br />year. <br /> • Recyclables collection shall be $3.03 per eligible residential dwelling unit per <br />month for weekly recycling service. Eligible residential dwelling units with <br />more than one (1) cart will be charged an additional fee of $2.00 per household <br />per month per cart. <br /> • Recyclables collection shall be $55.00 per eligible multi-dwelling unit per <br />month for each four yard container serviced once per week or $4.25 per eligible <br />multi-dwelling unit per month for each 65 gallon cart serviced once per week. <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.
