Roseville Public Works, Environment and Transportation Commission Agenda Item Date: November 29, 2016 Item No: 5 Item Description: Eureka Recycling 2015 Annual Report and 2017 Plan Background: Eureka Recycling has recently produced the annual recycling report. Staff from Eureka will be on hand at the meeting to review the highlights of the report and future recycling efforts. This is an important juncture in the recycling program with the new contract beginning on January 1, 2017, and the City will roll out a Pilot Parks Recycling Program in the spring. Typically the Annual Report to the Commission is presented in April, but with the contract negotiations, Staff felt it was best to hold off on the report until the contract was approved by Council. Eureka Recycling will be back in April/May 2017 to discuss the 2016 Annual Report. The 2015 Annual Report is included in the PWETC packet. The recycling contract requires the report to be reviewed by this commission per the following language: 6.04 Annual Performance Review Meeting to Discuss Recommendations for Continuous Improvement Upon receipt of the Contractors annual report, the City shall schedule an annual meeting with the Contractor and the City's Public Works Environment and Transportation Committee. The objectives of this annual meeting will include (but not limited to): • Review Contractor's annual report, including trends in recovery rate and participation. • Efforts the Contractor has made to expand recyclable markets. • Review Contractor's performance based on feedback from residents to the Committee members and/or City staff. • Review Contractor's recommendations for improvement in the City's recycling program, including enhanced public education and other opportunities. • Review staff and Committee recommendations for improving Contractor's service. • Discuss other opportunities for improvement with the remaining years under the current contract. • Discuss actions Contractor is taking to reduce its carbon footprint. Let us know if you have specific questions you would like staff to follow up on prior to the meeting. Recommended Action: Discuss recycling program with Eureka staff. Attachments: A.
