things are going now and also what suggestions would they have for staff in helping <br />Roseville restaurants do the same. <br />Ms. Bakken indicated she liked the suggestion and City staff did try to reach out to <br />a smaller group of restaurants that included some restaurants in Roseville that also <br />have a presence in Minneapolis or St. Louis Park to get that specific perspective, <br />but staff heard back from one person of the twenty-five she reached out to. She <br />understood restaurants are very busy and may not have time to respond. She <br />indicated she will look into the suggestion in the next couple of weeks. <br />Member Luongo thought Ms. Bakken did great outreach work. She asked if the <br />City has something set up to get translation services for the educational aspect of <br />this. <br />Ms. Bakken indicated the City does have resources for that. <br />Chair Ficek opened up the conversation for public comment. <br />Ms. Jake Lavene, Bar Manager at Chianti Grill, thought the presentation was great <br />and would like to be sustainable. He indicated the cost is going to be difficult and <br />he thought his restaurant was very sustainable already. He indicated on the compost <br />side of things he wondered how big the compost container would be and where is <br />it supposed to go. <br />Ms. Bakken explained the restaurant could start with a smaller container to learn <br />what is compostable because it is already being thrown in the trash. The key is to <br />have a container with a lid. She noted trash is taxed but compost and recycling are <br />not and eventually the restaurant may be able to save costs by getting a smaller <br />dumpster for garbage. <br />Mr. Lavene thought it was important to let people know about the $10,000 grant <br />and he wondered how the City saw the execution of this being done. <br />Ms. Bakken explained if the City Council approved this, she would want to do <br />another outreach with restaurants and explain what will be required and the <br />timeframe. <br />Mr. Joe Wozniak, 718 Sexton Avenue, indicated he was on the PWETC when this <br />project first started, and he has kept in touch with Ms. Bakken and likes how it has <br />progressed and wants to see this move forward and help wherever he can. <br />The Commission thanked Ms. Bakken for the presentation. <br />Page 3 of 4 <br />
