P.A. <br />January 8, 2009 <br />SUBJECT TO ATTORNEY - CLIENT PRIVILEGE <br />RE: Organized Waste Collection Process <br />Our File No. 4002(1) -0001 <br />Dear Mr. Malinen: <br />You requested a brief summary of the organized collection process. Following is a <br />short description of the process under law. <br />Minnesota law contains requirements relating to the adoption of any contract or <br />ordinance concerning the collection of solid waste. These requirements would apply in any <br />situation in which the City regulates the collection of waste in the City. The Minnesota <br />Organized Collection Statute outlines the procedure for the City to adopt an ordinance or <br />contract for the organized collection of waste.' These requirements are summarized as <br />follows: <br />Notice of Hearing. The first step is for the City to give public notice that the City <br />Council will be holding a public hearing to consider a resolution of its intent to organize <br />collection of solid waste. The City must mail notice of the hearing to persons the City knows <br />are collecting solid waste in the City. The public and mailed notices must be done at least two <br />weeks before the hearing is conducted. <br />' Minnesota Statute § 115A.94. <br />730 Second Avenue South, Suite 300, Minneapolis, MN 55402 • p (612) 339 -0060 • f (612) 339 -0038 • www.ratwiklaw.coni <br />Paul C.
