CONSENT ITEM - 8D -ARPEN HILLS luINLVAMIM-101110011 DATE: November 10, 2025 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers Jessica Jagoe, City Administrator FROM: Jen Estling, Deputy Clerk SUBJECT: Resolution 2025-070 - 2026 Curbside & Non -Curbside Recycling Fees Budgeted Amount: Actual Amount: Funding Source: N/A N/A N/A Council Should Consider Motion to approve, table or deny the following: • Resolution 2025-070 setting the 2026 Curbside and Non -Curbside Recycling Fees Background Walters Recycling and Refuse provides curbside recycling collection for the City of Arden Hills. The contract began May 5, 2025. The 2025 rate was a blend between the Republic Services rate for January through April 2025 and Walters Recycling and Refuse rate for May through December 2025. Ramsey County requires recycling fees to be set by the end of November so they can add the amounts to the upcoming year's property taxes. Discussion The City's contract with Walters Recycling and Refuse states "the price per RDU will increase each year by the twelve-month average percentage of change in Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers: Water and Sewer and Trash Collection Service in the US City Average as reported by the us Bureau of Labor Statistics for the preceding calendar year or by five (5) percent, whichever is less". Walters has confirmed the current rolling 12-month average CPI is at 5.0% exactly. Based on the anticipated cost of the collection services and the expected revenue from the SCORE grant funds, the per unit annual fee for residents receiving curbside collection is proposed to increase from $99.00 per year to $123.00 per year or $10.25 per month, which is an increase of $2.00 per Page 1 of 2 month from last year's rate. The increase in fees is the result of increased costs due to inflationary pressures; no other major cost drivers have been identified. Staff is proposing no increase to the annual fee for each housing unit that is not part of the curbside recycling program. The current fee is $3.75 per year. This fee is applied to Cottage Villas, Hunters Park Condos, Parkshore Apartments, Arden Manor, E Street Flats, Arden Flats, Johanna Shores, New Perspectives and Round Lake Senior Living. Budget Impact This information is included in the proposed 2026 budget. The recycling budget is an enterprise fund that receives revenues from the annual household fee that is assessed to the property taxes and from the SCORE grant provided by Ramsey County. Most of the expenses are from the services provided by the Recycling Hauler. Since there are no other dedicated funding sources, the revenue must be balanced with the expenses. Attachments A.

Public Works Director / City Engineer SUBJECT: Metropolitan Council — 2026 Private I/I Grant Program Resolution Budgeted Amount: Actual Amount: Funding Source: MCES Council Should Consider Motions to approve, table, or deny the following: • Resolution 202-071 approving the application for Metropolitan Council Environmental Services (MCES) 2026 private property Inflow and Infiltration (I/I) Grant Program Background/Discussion The 2026 Private I/I Grant Program is the 2nd year for Met Council. It will again provide $1.5 million in wastewater revenue to provide grants to private property owners to help with repairs that will remove and prevent clear water from entering the wastewater treatment system. The Minnesota Legislature amended Statute 471.342 to allow the Met Council to provide grant funding to local municipalities to assist private property owners with costs associated with repairing sewer infrastructure on their property. The City of Arden Hills is 1 of 81 other municipalities that are eligible for the program. For the 2025 Private I/I Grant Program, Arden Hills requested $90,000 but was awarded $41,000 as the entire $1.5 million was split between the other participating municipalities. Staff will likely be submitting similar to last year but will have the final value for the grant request after calculations are done through the application process. A resolution related to the application for MCES 2026 private property I/I grant program is provided as Attachment A.
