I saw this in the council packet and saw the article. Based on the info <br />staff provided, I think it makes sense to close it. I do use the site myself as it is much closer to <br />my house than any of the county drop off sites, but I have witnessed illegal dumping and cars <br />nearly getting stuck in the ruts. It doesn't seem to make financial sense given the anticipated <br />significant costs coming up and isn't 100% necessary since we also have county sites. <br />I know people don't like change and the county sites may be slightly less convenient, but it is a <br />better experience. They have knowledgeable staff, traffic control, and you can dump other <br />yard waste besides just leaves. I hope other residents that maybe haven't been to the county <br />sites before will check them out. <br />Thank you, <br />Allison Luongo <br />On Fri, Sep 12, 2025, 8:04AM Jesse Freihammer <Jesse.Freihammer@cityofroseville.com> <br />wrote: <br />All, <br /> <br />See attached packet information we presented to Council on Monday night about staff proposing <br />to close the city leaf site. Additional info can be found in this news article. <br /> <br />https://www.rosevillereader.com/city-considers-closing-roseville-leaf-recycling-center/?ref=the- <br />roseville-reader-newsletter <br /> <br />https://youtu.be/IyNTPtENwTw?t=5786 <br /> <br />We started with Council on this one since it started as a budget discussion. It’s tough on some <br />issues to start with PWET if council does not have knowledge of a proposal before PWET give <br />feedback. This felt like a topic we needed council feedback first if they thought this was a good <br />idea and then bring to PWET if they wanted further discussion. <br /> <br />Qbhf!212!pg!:15 <br /> <br />
