Regular City Council Meeting <br /> Monday,April 13, 2015 <br /> Page 16 <br /> Mr. Schwartz noted staff's recommendation, as detailed in the RCA, would be to <br /> consider discontinuing the program and focusing those resources on other unmet <br /> needs (e.g. tree trimming, storm water infrastructure maintenance on pipes and <br /> structures and ponds, sign maintenance and additional regulations for replacement <br /> of signs, negating the need for these equipment replacement monies in the CIP <br /> fund, and patching more streets throughout the City as needed). <br /> As noted in Commission meeting minutes as referenced, Mr. Schwartz noted their <br /> general consensus was to discontinue the program, while there was some concern <br /> about whether participants may increase significantly with more and/or better <br /> marketing of the program. <br /> As requested by the Commission, Mr. Schwartz advised that staff had reviewed <br /> the senior discount utility program to determine if there was any relationship with <br /> seniors using the program, he reported that staff did not find an inordinate amount <br /> of seniors using the program, but users seemed to be diverse among the general <br /> Roseville population. <br /> At the request of Mayor Roe, Mr. Schwartz confirmed that elimination of this <br /> program would free funds up for purchase of other equipment in the CIP. <br /> Councilmember McGehee opined that seniors probably had more difficulty bag- <br /> ging leaves; and questioned if there was an opportunity for the City to assist them <br /> in finding vendors or contractors available who have a leaf vacuum machine; or <br /> providing them with a list of those people to call. Noting that most yard services <br /> like to contract for a full year, Councilmember McGehee opined that they may be <br /> willing to accommodate this more specific pick-up service if they knew Roseville <br /> residents were going to lose the City program or if residents had the availability of <br /> that information from the City. Councilmember McGehee advised that she con- <br /> tinued to use the service personally,but could do without it, even though the diffi- <br /> culty was in bagging the leaves. <br /> At the request of Councilmember Laliberte, Mr. Schwartz confirmed that CIP <br /> equipment costs for this program were built into the 2015 and 2016 CIP budgets, <br /> with some slated for replacement in both years. <br /> At the request of Councilmember Laliberte, Mr. Schwartz advised that, while it <br /> may be possible to defer equipment replacement for another year, it remained an <br /> unknown with increasing repair costs already having triggered their replacement <br /> at this time. Mr. Schwartz opined that the equipment could be used again for the <br /> 2015 season with some maintenance work, and was ready for this season, but was <br /> dependent on how much money the City Council was willing to put into repair <br /> versus replacement. <br />
