I <br />2 <br />lls�kspvlffi� <br />Request for Council Action <br />Date: 10120108 <br />Item Number: 7.d <br />Department Approval Manager Approval Agenda Section <br />Item Description: <br />Resolution authorizing City Manager to apply for SCORE Funding Grant <br />Background <br />State law requires counties to manage the waste produced by citizens and businesses by waste reduction, reuse, <br />and recycling in preference to land filling. In 1989, the Legislature adopted legislation, based on <br />recommendations made by the Governor's Select Committee on Recycling and the Environment (SCORE)', to <br />further waste reduction,, reuse,, and recycling. Among other things, SCORE statutes authorize state grants for <br />recycling, managing problem materials, educating the public, and other related activities. <br />Ramsey County passes through a portion of its SCORE funding to cities. The County requires the funding be <br />used for waste reduction,, reuse and recycling programs. The County further requires the cities to have a <br />permanent source of funding for their waste reduction, reuse and recycling programs. Roseville responded by <br />approving the establishment of a recycling fee that has been included as a part of the quarterly utility bill. <br />Ramsey County has announced that cities may apply for SCORE funds for 2009. Grant amounts are based on <br />the amount of funds received from the State and the city's population. In 2009 Roseville is eligible for $,69,343. <br />The application process for the grant requires a resolution adopted by the City Council. <br />Financial IMplications <br />The grant will be used to pay a portion of the Curbside Recycling Program. <br />Staff Recommendation <br />It is recommended the Council adopt a resolution authorizing the City Manager to apply for the grant. <br />Requested Council Action <br />A motion adopting a resolution authorizing the City Manager to submit a grant application to Ramsey County <br />for a 200 9 SCORE Grant in amount of $,69,,343.00. <br />
