401 <br />• January 2019 <br />402 <br />403 <br />Mr. Culver noted he would not be at the October meeting. <br />404 <br />405 <br />Chair Cihacek recommended in the past bringing in research being done by the U <br />406 <br />of M, Smart Water Technologies for a presentation on sensors and other items. He <br />407 <br />also thought the Commission and staff could startto look at commercial water rates. <br />408 <br />409 <br />Mr. Culver thought the Commission could look at a final purchasing policy and a <br />410 <br />complete streets policy. <br />411 <br />412 <br />Member Wozniak asked if there were any updates on the Comprehensive Plan. <br />413 <br />414 <br />Mr. Culver stated between the Pathways Master Plan and the Transportation Plan, <br />415 <br />which is a component of the Comprehensive Plan, the Pathways Master Plan is not. <br />416 <br />The Pathways Master Plan will be presented to the Council for final approval on <br />417 <br />October 8"'. The Comprehensive Plan will be before the City Council for the final <br />418 <br />touch on November 5I'. The City has to adopt afinal version by the end of the year. <br />419 <br />420 <br />Member Trainor asked if an update regarding the potential of Eureka shutdown <br />421 <br />with the change in recycling can be presented with a slide or two on how that <br />422 <br />situation is going and what rates are looking like. What the City is forecasting for <br />423 <br />wins or losses on the financial side. <br />424 <br />425 <br />Mr. Culver asked the Commission to hold off until November on that item because <br />426 <br />he will be back, and he is keeping on that subject and has some data he would like <br />427 <br />to present to the Commission. <br />428 <br />429 <br />Member Trainor asked if a motion needed to be made in order to not meet in <br />430 <br />December. <br />431 <br />432 <br />Chair Cihacek indicated the Commission did not need to make a motion, it is <br />433 <br />standing motion each year. <br />434 <br />435 <br />Member Wozniak stated the City of St. Paul is moving to organize trash collection <br />436 <br />on October 1'. It seemed like in the survey there was some interest. He asked staff <br />437 <br />to look at past surveys to see if there is any increased organized trash collection <br />438 <br />among the populous or is it remaining stagnant. <br />439 <br />440 <br />Mr. Culver stated staff can, at some point, if there is interest by the Commission to <br />441 <br />look back at some of the lessons learned from St. Paul's rollout of that program. <br />442 <br />There certainly is an effort to acquire enough signatures on a petition to get a <br />443 <br />referendum vote on that from a number of residents who do not like the new system. <br />444 <br />445 <br />Chair Cihacek asked for a solar update as presented to Council the Commission <br />446 <br />recommendation to move forward. <br />Page 10 of 12 <br />
