MINNESOTA 55303 <br /> May 2, 1985 <br /> <br />Dear Mr. Schnelle: <br /> <br />FUNDS AVAILABLE FROM ANOKA COUNTY <br />FOR LOCAL RECYCLING, COMPOSTING <br />AhiD WASTE RF_DUCTION PROC, RAMS <br /> <br />I am writing to inform you that at its April I(>, 1785 meetings the County <br />Board adopted the attached policy regarding distribution of the funds <br />currently being received from the County's landfill surcharge fee. This fee is <br />charged for waste deposited at the two landfills in the County. <br /> <br />A major feature of this policy is making available up to $1.25 per household <br />for cities and townships in the County to help establish recycling, composting <br />and waste reduction/education programs. (Also, an additional $.50 per <br />household is available from the Metropolitan Council to fund similar <br />activities.) Cities and townships will have considerable flexibility in <br />designing their programs to reflect local conditions and needs. <br /> <br />If your community is interested, the first step is to develop a work plan for <br />your proposed program. More details are included in the attached policy. If <br />you have que~tions~ feel free to contact the County's Solid Waste <br />Coordinator, Norm Schiferl at ~21~7(;0, extension I 173. <br /> <br />We hope your community can use these funds to establish a program to help <br />reduce the need for landfills! <br /> <br />,/~erely~ ,, <br /> <br /> A.
