• January 2019 <br />Mr. Culver noted he would not be at the October meeting. <br />Chair Cihacek recommended in the past bringing in research being done by the U <br />of M, Smart Water Technologies for a presentation on sensors and other items. He <br />also thought the Commission and staff could startto look at commercial water rates. <br />Mr. Culver thought the Commission could look at a final purchasing policy and a <br />complete streets policy. <br />Member Wozniak asked if there were any updates on the Comprehensive Plan. <br />Mr. Culver stated between the Pathways Master Plan and the Transportation Plan, <br />which is a component of the Comprehensive Plan, the Pathways Master Plan is not. <br />The Pathways Master Plan will be presented to the Council for final approval on <br />October 81'. The Comprehensive Plan will be before the City Council for the final <br />touch on November 51'. The City has to adopt a final version by the end of the year. <br />Member Trainor asked if an update regarding the potential of Eureka shutdown <br />with the change in recycling can be presented with a slide or two on how that <br />situation is going and what rates are looking like. What the City is forecasting for <br />wins or losses on the financial side. <br />Mr. Culver asked the Commission to hold off until November on that item because <br />he will be back, and he is keeping on that subject and has some data he would like <br />to present to the Commission. <br />Member Trainor asked if a motion needed to be made in order to not meet in <br />December. <br />Chair Cihacek indicated the Commission did not need to make a motion, it is <br />standing motion each year. <br />Member Wozniak stated the City of St. Paul is moving to organize trash collection <br />on October l". It seemed like in the survey there was some interest. He asked staff <br />to look at past surveys to see if there is any increased organized trash collection <br />among the populous or is it remaining stagnant. <br />Mr. Culver stated staff can, at some point, if there is interest by the Commission to <br />look back at some of the lessons learned from St. Paul's rollout of that program. <br />There certainly is an effort to acquire enough signatures on a petition to get a <br />referendum vote on that from a number of residents who do not like the new system. <br />Chair Cihacek asked for a solar update as presented to Council the Commission <br />recommendation to move forward. <br />Page 10 of 12 <br />
