217 their own trailer for transport or hiring a contractor to haul them. Chair Stenlund <br />218 asked how that situation could be addressed for residents, especially those unable <br />219 to pay for those services or unable to haul it off-site themselves. Noting recent <br />220 discussions about organized and community-based garbage collection, Chair <br />221 Stenlund suggested a "community trailer" for someone to use and/or interact with <br />222 their neighbors. While this would be infrequently used, Chair Stenlund noted <br />223 opined that it would foster community level involvement and get leaves hauled to <br />224 a mapped location. <br />225 <br />226 <br />227 <br />228 <br />229 <br />230 <br />231 <br />232 <br />233 <br />234 <br />235 <br />236 <br />237 <br />238 <br />Member Seigler noted that he simply put the lea <br />in his truck; opining it wasn't the City's jot <br />indications that 95% had already figured it ou�llllll <br />trash bags and hauled them <br />.'ove people's leaves, with <br />y 5% remained. <br />With Member Cihacek noted the option po ed fo aulers providing the service <br />on the City's website, Member Seigler c 'feed that Chair Stenlund was looking <br />for a free transport service for those elderly or unable to payf a hauler or having <br />access to a trailer. <br />Member Cihacek suggested the community needed to come together for a contract <br />versus the City, or neighbors getting together on a hauler and price, but putting the <br />burden on them, as long as the City provides the information for them. <br />239 Member Thurnau noted several neighborhood associaii s in Roseville, as well as <br />240 the work of e Community Engagement Commissio EC) working on what <br />241 associations would look like, suggesting this may be an option for them, to organize <br />242 certain areas or neighborhoods as logical sectors to work on pickup management. <br />243 <br />244 Member Heimerl suggested educational opportunities during National Night Out <br />245 or during that time period, to present this information to block captains and get <br />246 neighbors talking to one another at which time they could coordinate trailers and <br />247 needs, with block coordination to help the remaining percentage get leaves off their <br />248 property for the benefit of the entire neighborhood. Member Heimerl also noted <br />249 the potential to push community fundraising opportunities, with donations for <br />250 pickup for school organizations or school sports team or faith -based organizations, <br />251 where stude is living in a particular neighborhood or spread throughout the <br />252 neighborhd could work cooperatively to provide the service and reap the <br />253 benefits. Eve if donation based, Member Heimerl opined that there would be more <br />254 money in raking and transporting leaves versus bagging groceries for a fundraising <br />255 effort. Member Heimerl opined that the City was doing a good job in getting the <br />256 information out and educating the public, but opportunities may be available to <br />257 encourage community-based services until private industry stepped up in the future. <br />258 <br />259 Chair Stenlund stated his anticipation of a one-year problem as this change occurs, <br />260 but not thereafter. <br />261 <br />Page 6 of 13 <br />
