Motion <br />Member Trainor moved, Chair Cihacek seconded, approval of the March 27, <br />2018 meeting minutes as amended. <br />Motion <br />Chair Cihacek moved, seconded by Member Trainor to TABLE this item <br />until an additional Member arrives at the meeting, since the 3 new <br />Commissioners were not present at the March meeting. <br />Ayes: 2 <br />Nays: 0 <br />Abstentions: 3 (Joyce, Kruse, Kors) <br />5. Communication Items <br />Member Misra arrived at this time, at approximately 6:34 p.m. <br />Public Works Director Culver provided a brief review and update on projects and <br />maintenance activities listed in the staff report dated April 24, 2018. <br />Member Kors inquired about the location of the lift station. <br />City Engineer Freihammer pointed out the three new lift stations on the map. <br />Member Trainor asked whether there continue to be flooding issues near the <br />Godfrey Pit lift station. <br />Mr. Culver pointed out the last time flooding happened was in 2013. That is a spot <br />that staff continues to watch. There have been significant improvements to the lift <br />station, but there will still be rain events that impact the area. <br />Mr. Culver pointed out that one of the flyers in the newsletter reference recycling. <br />Staff works with Ramsey County to maintain a consistent message on recycling. <br />Member Trainor had previously pointed out the change in recycling standards, <br />which now permit paper towel and toilet paper tubes. Under the plastic container <br />section, it does not specifically mention that residents cannot recycle nos. 3 and 6 <br />containers. That is a difference in philosophy between the County and Roseville, <br />and even with Eureka. The County feels if the numbers are included, people will <br />forget what the number is and they will look at the container and throw it away. He <br />continued that the City will have to manage the message. Through all the years of <br />recycling, he believes the public is generally educated enough to look at the <br />numbers and know what is accepted. Those numbers should be reinforced, in his <br />opinion. <br />Member Kruse asked whether Pathway projects are funded out of Public Works. <br />Page 2 of 9 <br />
