Regular City Council Meeting Monday, April 12, 2010 Page 20 Councilmember Johnson opined that it was not inappropriate to have input from the PWET Commission in developing criteria ,but beyond that it was not neces- sary to have their involvement. Mayor Klausing requested that Councilmember Roe provide specific direction to the PWET Commission as to their role: 1) Review draft RFP and provide feedback to staff to take into account and im- prove RFP as it comes forward; 2) Possible participation in the evaluation process Further discussion ensued regarding who would make that determination on their involvement in the evaluation process, whether that would be the City Council, staff or the PWET Commissioners. City Manager Malinen noted that if all five (5) of the PWET Commissioners wished to be involved in the evaluation process, it could become problematic; however, one or two (1-2) commissioners could be accommodated to participate in the process, and asked that the City Council leave that to his discretion to de- termine who was involved on those panels, based on their expressed interest, but not at the directive of the City Council or the PWET Commission itself. Public Comment John Kysylyczyn, 3083 N Victoria Street Mr. Kysylyczyn reviewed the history and past practice regarding the recycling contract; his perspective on the role of the citizen advisory commissions in pro- viding input on policy issues; and opined that, given the multiple options for recy- cling currently available, there were multiple policy issues to be considered, on which it would be appropriate for the PWET Commission to provide recommen- dations, in addition to their involvement when bids were received and which op- tion was best for the City. Mr. Kysylyczyn recommended using the talents and opinions of the PWET Commission regarding this process. At the request of Councilmember Johnson, City Manager Malinen reviewed the best value contracting approach for this bid, and criteria envisioned and reflecting community values in the process, weighing each component with those values. 14.
