I I I I I I Councilmenber COx reminded the audienoe that the purpose of this meeting with Waste Management of Minnesota was to make Council knowledgeable as to what is being proposed in the vertical exp~nsion; this meeting was not inte~ to be a public hearing or confrontation. Mr. Doulgas Fountain- ~eom~ended that COu~tl adopt the same position as M~ did in DecOr when Waste Management of Minnesota made a presentation before the Anoka County Board, i.e., MP(~ would not consider any expansion of any type at the Anoka Landfill site until the testing prooedures have been completed. Motion by Councilmember Cox and seconded by Councilmember Sorteberg to adopt Resolution ~86-21 identifying the policy for the City of Ramsey as it relates to action taken by the Pollution Control Agency against Waltek, Inc. (Please refer to resolution file for Resolution ~86-21). Motion carried. Voting Yes.. Councilmembers Sorteberg, (Dx and Beimann. Voting No: Mayor }{eitman and Councilmember Schlueter. Councilme~ber COx stated that he will be meeting with Senator Pahl and the Director of PG% on February 26 and will present this resolution to them. Council~m~nber Cox stated he is very surprised anyone would vote 'no' to a resolution siting PG%'s action to fine, rather than warn, a local company employing 50; and all this at the same time our EDC is trying to create ~ew business and support existing business. Mr. Hartley ~phasized that there are several matters that cannot prooeed without first being published in the City Newsletter. Staff is recomme~ng Council approval to proceed with a 4-p~ge monthly newsletter. Motion by Councilmember Cox and seconded by Counci~r Schlueter to approve the initiation of a monthly City newsletter, to accept the offer of School District ~11 for allocation of one-half of the cost of mailing (up to a maximin of $400) under the District's bulk mailing permit and to ~m~ard the bid for printing of the newsletter to All-Brite Gralahics of Ramsey, Minnesota at a cost not to exceed $575.00/month. Further Discussion: Councilm~r Schlueter noted that Mr. Stewart's letter indicates the possibility of the Post Office determining that newsletters may be inappropriate to be mailed under School District permits. Mr. Bartiey replied that in such an event, l~sey could obtain it's ~ bulk mailing permit. Mayor Beitman stated that All-Brite's bid adjustment to a lower rate and the b~o month disclaimer hints that they doubt they can live up to their bid; on the other hand, the other ~o bids might have been too low and they would not have been able to live up to their bids either. Motion carried. Voting Yes: Mayor Heitman, CouncilmmI~rs Borteberg, COx, February 25, 1986 Page 9 of 22
