Case #11: Discuss Recycling Program <br /> <br />Councilmember Peterson expressed concern with conflicting information that has been distributed <br />by City Staff and by the recycling provider regarding the types of things that are recyclable and <br />also the preparation of articles to be recycled. He said neighbors have expressed the desire to <br />recycle, but they don't want to pla), games. <br /> <br />Mr. Hartley stated that one of the issues of confusion was regarding removing labels from glass. <br />The recycling service changed the literature so it doesn't have to be removed unless it's loose <br />already. Mr. Hartley stated one of the biggest conflicts seemed to be what Monday is pick-up day. <br /> <br />Councilmember Cich suggested talking with Jim Gromberg, Project Manager, and getting it <br />straight. <br /> <br />Councilmember DeLuca stated some people put their recycling container out every Monday <br />because they don't know which Monday is their day. <br /> <br />Councilmember Peterson stated another big conflict is regarding which plastics are recyclable. Be <br />feels that definitely needs to be clarified. He's concerned that if the correct information is not <br />handed out, people will become discouraged and not want to recycle. <br /> <br />Councilmember Cich suggested an article in the Ramsey Resident to clarify the da), of pickup and <br />also what is recyclable and what preparation needs to be done so it is accepted by the recycling <br />service. <br /> <br />Councilmember Pearson stated that when he had some items rejected, the recycling provider left a <br />correction sheet in his bin. <br /> <br />Case #12: Personnel Committee Report <br /> <br />Councilmember Cich stated that Jo Ann Thieling is the new Recording Secretary, there is further <br />study being done on job descriptions, some issues were tabled and he also stated that he would <br />give a better report next time. <br /> <br />Mr. Hartley stated that Mr. Donald Johnson accepted the position as Senior Engineer Technician in <br />salaD., grade 3.5 at an annual salary of $22,642.00. <br /> <br />Motion by Councilmember Cich and seconded by Councilmember Pearson to adopt Resolution <br />/490-11-349 offering Senior Engineer Technician position to Donald Johnson. <br /> <br />Motion carried.
