2. Proposed Ordinance Amendment-Waste Hauler Requirements
Prepared By
Joe Flogeboom, City Planner
Summary
The Environmental Commission has been studying the City's solid waste collection practices
since January, 2010. Originally, the Commission examined the feasibility or organizing
municipal hauling in the City. The Commission ultimately chose to recommend that the City
remain in an open waste hauling system, and not limit the number of haulers who may be
licensed to operate.
The Commission recommends providing requirements that haulers must meet in order to
receive licensing by the City. The requirements include:
• Requiring haulers to offer separate containers for yard waste.
• Requiring that solid waste and yard waste containers used in the City be made from at
least 50% of post-consumer recycled material.
• Requiring that haulers pick up yard waste between May 1 and November 1, and as
otherwise specified by the City.
• Requiring that haulers provide "valet" (door side pick-up) for senior and physically
disabled citizens.
• Requiring that haulers offer a discounted service rate for neighborhoods that self-
organize.
In addition to the above licensing requirements, the Environmental Commission also
recommends passage of an ordinance that requires all residents within the City to contract for
waste collection services. In order to do so, per state statute the City must allow residents to
opt out of contracting for waste removal senrices if they can demonstrate that they can
provide an environmentally-sound alternative.
The City Attorney's office has reviewed the Environmental Commission's recommendations
and is generally supportive of the proposed ordinance. However, there is concern over the
notion of requiring haulers to offer discounted rates to neighborhoods who self-organize.
Assistant City Attorney Kim Donat states in her memorandum to the Environmental
Commission (attached) that requiring waste haulers to offer lower rates could be viewed as
an interFerence to fair market trade and competition. If the City were to require that haulers
offer a discounted rate to neighborhoods who organize, then the City may have to either go
through the steps necessary to formally organize waste collection or face legal challenges by
waste hauler groups.
Attached is a draft ordinance that includes the above recommendations. The portion that
pertains to neighborhood rates is underlined. Environmental Commission Chair Rich Baker
will be present at the Council/Manager meeting to speak about the Environmental
Commission's process in reaching its recommendations.

MemoYandum
DATE: September 20,2011
TO: Joe Hogeboom
FROM: Katie Schurrer and Kim Donat
REGARDING: Government Restraints on Trade
FILE NUMBER: 90-480568
Introduction: Whether regulatory constraints on customer pricing for recycling might run afoul of
governmental prohibitions against restraints on trade.
Short Answer: Perhaps, while the waste and recycling collection statute appear to give broad
authority to municipalities to regulate solid waste collection,based on the legislative intent behind
the strict notice requirements relating to organized collection it appears that the statue stops short of
giving freedom to enact anticompetitive regulation of the solid waste collection system, including
mandatory regulatory discounts imposed on private contracts.
I. Restraints on Trade and Competition.
The Supreme Court of the United States passed a comprehensive antitrust law in 1890 called
the Sherman Antitrust Act. See 15 U.S.C. § 1-7. Over time, adjustments have been made to the Act,
but it remains valid today. See Clayton Antitrust Act of 1914, Pub. L.No. 63-212 (clarifying
activities inside and outside the scope of the Act)1; Robinson-Patman Act of 1936, Pub. L.No. 74-
592 (outlawing price fixing by manufacturers)2. The Sherman Antitrust Act was founded upon
common law that had traditionally favored free trade. William Letwin, Law and Economic Policy in
America: the evolution of the Sherman Antitrust Act 18 (1981). The act sta.tes "[e]very contract,
combination in the form of trust or otherwise, or conspiracy, in restraint of�rade or commerce
among the several States, or with foreign nations, is declared to be illegal." 15 U.S.C. § 1.
Additionally,the act stated"[e]very person who shall monopolize, or attempt to monopolize, or
'See 15 U.S.C. § 12-27,29 U.S.C. §52-53.
2 See 15 U.S.C. § 13.
MemoYandufn
Page 2
combine or conspire with any other person or persons,to monopolize any part of the trade or
commerce among the several States, or with foreign nations, shall be deemed guilty of a felony."
In Pa�ker v. Brown,the Supreme Court of the United States found states are generally
exempt from liability for what may be considered antitrust violations under the Sherrnan Antitrust
Act,when acting in a legislative capacity. 317 U.S. 341, 350-1 (1943) ("We find nothing in the
language of the Sherman Act or in its history which suggests that its purpose was to restrain a state
or its officers or agents from activities directed by its legislature."). T'he exception,however, only
applies when the sta.te is acting as a sovereign. In Colutnbia v. Omni Outdoo�Adve�., Inc.,the court
emphasized"immunity does not necessarily obtain where the State acts not in a regulatory capacity,
but as a commercial participant in a given market." 499 U.S. 365, 374-5 (1991). See Union Pacific
R. Co. v. United States, 313 U.S. 450 (1941) (city's issuance of rebates and concessions were made
in a capacity as the owner of the benefited property and were therefore unlawfiil under the Elkins
Act).
However,the state exemption"does not apply with equal force to political subdivisions such
as municipalities. Melissa K. Stull, What constitutes "state action"�endeYingpublic o�cial's
pa�ticipation in private antitrust activity immune fi°om application offederal antit�ust laws, 109
A.L.R. Fed. 758 (2010). In Lafayette v. Louisiana Powe� &Light Co. the Supreme Court of the
United Sta.tes concluded"petitioners are in error in arguing that Pa�ke�held that all governmental
entities,whether state agencies or subdivisions of a State, are, simply by reason of their status as
such, exempt from the antitrust laws." 435 U.S. 389, 408 (1978). The court focused on the use of
"sovereign"to describe the sta.tes in Parke�as indicative of the limited scope of the exemption. Id.
at 409. However,the court acknowledged the necessity of municipalities to act as "instrumentalities
of the Sta.te for the convenient administration of government within their limits." Id. at 412 (citing
Louisiana ex�el. Folsofn v. Mayor of New O�leans, 109 U.S. 285, 287 (1883). The court then
MemoYandum
Page 3
concluded"the Pa�ke�doctrine exempts only anticompetitive conduct engaged in as an act of
government . . . by [a State's] subdivisions,pursuant to state policy to displace competition with
regulation or monopoly public service." Id. The state policy does not need to be expressly
conferred,but instead can be inferred from state's delegation for"a governmental entity to operate in
a particular area." Id. at 415.
In 1987 a Third Circuit Court of Appeals case addressed the ability of a county to regulate
solid waste disposal under a challenge u.nder federal antitrust laws. Hancock Indus. v. Schaeffe�,
811 F.2d 225 (3d Cir. 1987). The court found the county's prohibition of dumping waste generated
outside the county in the county's landfill was an action immune from liability under the general
staxe action exemption from Parke�. Id. at 229. The court analyzed the state statute tha.t delegated
authority to municipalities "to acquire and operate solid waste disposal facilities"and"provide for
the disposition of solid waste generated in Chester County for the next(15)years"in reaching its
decision. Id. at 232. The court found"the municipality need not be able to point to a specific
detailed legislative authorization that expressly mentions anticompetitive actions." Id. at 233 (citing
Town of Hallie v. City of Eau Clai�e, 471 U.S. 34, 39 (1985) (Supreme Court found where sta.te
statute grants authority to cities to regulate and engage in anticompetitive conduct falls under sta.te
action exemption for federal antitrust laws)) (quotations omitted).
II. Application to Golden Valley's Regulation of Solid Waste Collection
As a result of these interpretations of federal antitrust law, a two-step analysis is required to
determine whether a municipality's regulations are exempt from antitrust laws. First, it must be
determined whether the state legislature authorized the activities being regulated by the
municipality. 109 A.L.R. Fed. 758. Second, if the legislature did authorize regulation by
municipalities then it must be determined whether the legislature intended to authorize displacing
competition. Id.
Memo�andum
Page 4
In a preliminary analysis, it may be difficult for Golden Valley to survive both tests in
relation to solid waste haulers. The Minnesota legislature clearly authorizes—in fact requires—
murucipalities to regulate solid waste haulers and the collection of solid waste. See Minn. Stat. §§
115A.42, 115A.46, 115A.941 (2010). However,the second step in the analysis is to determine
whether the authorization intends to displace competition.
At first glance, it might seem that Hallie and Hancock would clearly bring the municipality's
regulation under the Pa�ker exception to antitrust laws. Minnesota law clearly delegates authority to
counties and municipalities to regulate solid waste collection in their localities,which is similar to
the authorizations in Hallie and Hancock. However, Minnesota.is distinguished from these cases
because of its statutorily mandated procedures for moving from an open to organized collection
system. The strict procedure does not align with an intention for anticompetitive regulation; in fact
it appears to be the opposite. While the statute appears to give broad authoriTy to the municipalities
to regulate solid waste collection it stops short of giving freedom to enact anticompetitive regulation
of the solid waste collection system.
In light of the strict procedure the legislature requires to move from an open to organized
solid waste collection, which distinguishes Minnesota from Hallie and Hancock, it is unlikely tlus
would be interpreted as authorizing activiTy intended to displace competition. See Minn. Stat. §
115A.94 (2010). It could be interpreted as authorizing displacement of competition,under the
circumstances outlined in the procedures,but that would trigger the statutory notice and other
procedural requirements, which Golden Valley prefers to avoid if possible.

Prepared By
Jeannine Clancy, Director of Public Works
Jeff Oliver, PE, City Engineer
Summary
Staff and the consulting engineering firm of SEH, Inc. are in the process of preparing an
amendment to the feasibility report for the 2012 Pavement Management Program (PMP). The
feasibility report for the combined 2011 and 2012 PMP was presented to the City Council at a
Public Hearing on November 16, 2010, at which time the City Council authorized construction
of the two projects.
As part of the approval of the 2012 PMP, the reconstruction of Turners Crossroad between
Interstate 394 and Circle Down was removed from the project due to the uncertainty of the
location of the Metropolitan Council Environmental Services (MCES) 1-GV-461 Reliever
project. A portion of the MCES reliever will be constructed on Circle Down, Turners
Crossroad and Golden Hills Drive as part ofthe 2012 PMP. At its June 21, 2011 meeting, the
City Council authorized preparation of an amendment to the previously approved 2012 PMP
feasibility report to include the subject portion of Turners Crossroad in the PMP project.
The proposed design for Turners Crossroad that will be included in 2012 PMP Feasibility
Report Amendment will be presented to the City Council for discussion at this
Council/Manger meeting.
Staff will also be prepared to update the City Council on the status of the two phases of the
MCES 1-GV-461 Reliever project. As discussed above, a portion of this MCES facility will be
constructed as part of the 2012 PMP, and the remaining portions of the forcemain will be
designed and constructed by the MCES.
The proposed project schedule for the amended 2012 PMP is as follows:
