project. Mr. Johnson anticipated additional information available in June or July <br /> of this year. <br /> Other activities undertaken by the PWETC included reviewing and preparing the <br /> Recycling RFP; policy issues on plumbing issues; utility rate proposals; tree <br /> preservation and replacement policy; sump pumps; sanitary sewer questions; and <br /> other reaction to other proposed policy updates. <br /> Member Trainor noted the PWETC's frequent field trips as another <br /> accomplishment; with Member Lenz suggesting the City Council do the same in <br /> reviewing community needs or concerns. <br /> 2016 Work Plan Items <br /> Mr. Freihammer noted some of these items, including transit accessibility (e.g. <br /> pedestrian and bicycle paths) would tie into the comprehensive plan update <br /> process over the next year. Mr. Cihacek noted that this effort, giving <br /> consideration to appropriate transit usage to inform the Metropolitan Council, <br /> would take up a considerable amount of time over the next year, including as the <br /> A-Line bus rapid transit (BRT) passenger numbers and customer satisfaction was <br /> considered. Mr. Freihammer noted that the City of Roseville and its riders had <br /> lost a lot of bus lines when the Green Line went in, creating less accessible <br /> options for many residents. Mr. Freihammer noted that the transportation aspects <br /> would look at bike paths and connections to other communities as well, including <br /> more sidewalks or connecting sidewalks to make Roseville pedestrian-friendly. <br /> Questions or Concerns for the City Council <br /> • Rights-of-way, setback, lot usage and long-term lack of use of some <br /> easements and whether some of those not being used for a considerable <br /> amount of time may be holding back potential household improvements. <br /> Member Seigler asked that staff, including Public Works Director Culver with <br /> input from the Planning Commission, return with more formal information on <br /> this issue, including how calculations are determined. <br /> • Mr. Freihammer advised that two additional ordinances would be coming <br /> forward for PWETC discussion: sump pump clarifications as they related to <br /> the Inflow and Infiltration (I & I) and suggested language revisions from staff <br /> and for PWETC review; and also an ordinance related to private hydrants and <br /> creation of an ordinance addressing their installation and maintenance. <br /> • Recycling Components: Chair Cihacek suggested that the City Council <br /> provide more comprehensive direction related to other recycling components, <br /> whether to increase amounts or address smaller elements of curbside <br /> collection (e.g. plastic bag recycling, organics, etc.) to determine if the City <br /> Council wants that to be part of the PWETC work plan for the next year. <br /> Page 13 of 17 <br />
