Excerpt from November 2017 meeting minutes <br />Attachment D <br />Member Seigler asked if the City had any concerns with trains loaded with fuel was <br />a concern for the City. <br />Mr. Freihammer explained these trains ran along Rice Street into St. Paul and <br />through New Brighton. He described how these trains had become silent and no <br />longer had to whistle at each intersection which had reduced the number of <br />complaints in the City. He described the number of freight trains coming in and <br />out of the City on a weekly basis. <br />Mr. Freihammer requested the Commission make a motion to approve the proposed <br />2018 Work Plan. <br />Motion <br />Member Trainor moved, Member Seigler seconded, to recommend approval <br />of the proposed 2018 Work Plan. <br />Ayes: 4 <br />Nays: 0 <br />Motion carried. <br />8. Items for Next Meeting <br />Discussion ensued regarding the January PWETC agenda: <br />• Facilities Study Presentation — Mr. Culver commented this study should be <br />available and will be presented to the Commission. <br />• Eureka Presentation — Mr. Culver noted Eureka would be providing the <br />Commission with their Annual Report. <br />• Update on Organics Recycling — Mr. Culver reported the Commission would <br />be receiving an update on organics recycling from Eureka. <br />Chair Cihacek asked if organics recycling was available within City of Roseville <br />buildings. <br />Mr. Culver reported this was not available in City buildings. <br />Chair Cihacek suggested this option be explored for City Hall and Public Works <br />staff. He anticipated there was room for another dumpster to allow for organics <br />recycling. <br />Mr. Culver stated the Commission could address this further in January. He <br />discussed how short parking was on the Roseville campus and feared how another <br />dumpster would impact this situation. He explained City Hall just currently was not <br />set up for that. He anticipated this situation would change in 2019. <br />Chair Cihacek recommended organics recycling be considered internally at City <br />Hall and what steps would need to be taken to implement this type of recycling on <br />the entire campus. <br />Page 7 of 8 <br />
