Performance Contract <br /> <br />Community Development Director Sherman explained that the City of Ramsey has a cooperative <br />agreement (contract) with Anoka County Integrated Waste Management. In return for the City <br />agreeing to provide a basic level of recycling service to the residents, the City is eligible for <br />reimbursement of certain eligible expenses. The City is obligated to provide two community <br />presentations on recycling and the City's recycling program. In June 1999, Community <br />Development Assistant Walther became aware of CLIMB Theatre, Inc. The company offers a <br />performance called "Trash/" that is geared toward third to fifth graders to teach the concept of <br />Reduce, Reuse, Recycle. The company also provides follow up school and home projects for <br />teachers and kids. At City staff's suggestion, CLIMB Theatre made arrangements with Stan <br />Pichel of Ramsey Elementary School to perform for the 44 grade classes on January 10, 2000. <br />The cost of the performance is $450 and is eligible for reimbursement from Anoka County. The <br />performance will obviously be more entertaining, engaging and productive than a dr~ <br />presentation from City staff, it will fulfill the requirement of one of the community presentations <br />in 2000, and it is well within the budget for the Recycling Fund. <br /> <br />Motion by Councilmember Anderson, seconded by Councilmember Connolly, to authorize City <br />staff to enter into a written agreement with CLIMB Theatre, Inc. for one performance of"Trash" <br />at Ramsey Elementary School. <br /> <br />Motion carded. Voting Yes: Mayor Gamec, Councilmembers Anderson, Connolly, Hendriksen, <br />and Zimmerman. Voting No: None. <br /> <br />City Council/August 24, 1999 <br /> Page 13 of 25 <br /> <br /> <br />
