Mr. Culver reported on actions of the City Council since the last PWETC meeting, including their vote not to participate in a marketing agreement with the Utility Service Warranty program for residents. Mr. Culver reported that the Recycling Request for Proposals (RFP) would come before the City Council at their March 28, 2016 meeting to receive City Council input and hopefully their authorization to proceed with the RFP process. If that remained on schedule, Mr. Culver advised that staff anticipated responses for the RFP in April, review of those proposals received in May, and anticipated a final contract for presentation to the City Council for their review and approval by July of 2016. As part of that review of proposals and their subsequent scoring, Mr. Culver reported that staff anticipated community survey results and questions specific to the curbside recycling program would also be available to assist in reviewing options provided by vendors and help inform various components of the RFP using that additional public feedback in addition to that received to-date from the Speak Up! Roseville website. At the request of Member Lenz, Mr. Culver clarified that the current Eureka contract expired year-end 2016. Regarding street sweeping, Chair Stenlund asked staff for their general sense of road conditions, specifically potholes and delamination issues. Mr. Culver advised that he had heard nothing specific from the street superintendent yet, but noted it was still early in the process. Based on his personal observations, Mr. Culver reported that since it had proven a rather mild winter, and while potholes had been found sooner rather than later, he saw no more significant deterioration than typically found. Mr. Culver noted that delamination issues remained, and it was still early in that study as well. At the request of Member Cihacek, Mr. Culver advised that staff continued to await a proposal to move the solar power to the maintenance facility or supplement it. Mr. Culver stated that he anticipated an update from the provider within the next few weeks. 5. South Lake Owasso Private Drive Storm Sewer Improvements Mr. Freihammer reviewed the background of this proposed private drive storm sewer project and meetings held with the neighborhood since 2014; and most recently in January of 2016. Mr. Freihammer displayed a map showing the location of the project (Attachment A) that would address this long and ongoing drainage issue into Lake Owasso, with neighbors having sought surface improvements and resolution to that drainage discharge into Lake Owasso for some time. Mr. Freihammer provided two alternatives as part of his visual presentation. Mr. Freihammer noted that Alternate 1 was for no change. Page 2 of 7
