I find this to be a very bold statement. I'd like to see how staff <br />has developed this projection. Have they taken lr�ta the consideration the volatility of commodity <br />markets and the many special factors that affect them. The city could just as easily realize $0. per year <br />through a"commodity pricing" based revenue sharing plan. 1 hope you will question staff on this. <br />At the August 22, 2005 council meeting, the council ignored the recommendation ofthe Rps��i�le'S PWET <br />commission to solicit single sort recycling providers. Instead the council directed Mr. Pratt to go forward <br />with an RFP that he borrowed from the City of Maplewood. This is the same RFP that Maplewood used to <br />select Eureka Recycling as that cities provider starting in 2006. Why would the council not direct staff to <br />prepare an RFP that is drafted for the City of Roseville? <br />Thank you, <br />Bob Wilimus <br />■� <br />
