second cleanup day was even necessary. All agreed to drop discussion of <br />a second cleanup day. <br />Stimulus Bill <br />Duane Schwartz reported that staff was waiting to see how the funds were <br />going to be dispersed and how the City can be eligible for it. <br />Vacuum Sweeper <br />Duane Schwartz reported that both Falcon Heights and Little Canada have <br />responded favorably to inquiries by Roseville to rent their vacuum <br />sweepers. <br />Commission Vacancies <br />The City Council is accepting applications for two vacancies on the <br />PWETC. <br />5. Eureka Recycling Annual Report/Presentation <br />Christopher Goodwin and Bryan Ukena from Eureka Recycling presented <br />their annual report. Roseville's participation increased to 82% over the <br />past year. <br />Member Vanderwall questioned why some of his plastic has been refused <br />by the recycler when it had the appropriate recycling number on it. Tim <br />Pratt explained that the number symbols used don't always mean the same <br />thing and that it is not a government regulated numbering system. <br />Member Felice asked Eureka for more information on composting. Mr. <br />Goodman replied that the best way to deal with compostable waste is to <br />compost it yourself in your backyard. <br />Member Felice asked what people can do with their old denim. Mr. Pratt <br />said there's a company in Maplewood on Cope Avenue called Wipers that <br />takes old clothes and fabric that isn't usable anymore. Mr. Goodwin said <br />another option is putting it out with the regular recycling, but it needs to <br />be clean and dry. <br />Member Stenlund asked what is the weakest market to get rid of material <br />right now and what do they see as the future market for growth. Mr. <br />Ukena responded that the weakest market is probably pop and beer boxes <br />because they are manufactured to resist liquid and so they can't be <br />recycled with other material. <br />6. Shared/Cooperative Services Discussion <br />Duane Schwartz introduced this discussion to come up with ideas on how <br />to make up for budget shortfalls and asked the Commission for <br />suggestions and areas to explore. <br />Page 2 of 3 <br />
