3. Section 10.32 Study
Guests Police Chief Stacy Carlson, Fire/Property Maintenance inspector Josh
Kunde and Planning Director Mark Grimes discussed how the proposal to
change Ordinance 10.32 to allow chickens will impact each of their departments.
Carlson said the Police Department currently serves as animal control for the city
and they are not in favor of amending the ordinance. Most of the calls received
by the department are livability issues and she believes the addition of chickens
in the city will add to the workload. In addition she expressed concern regarding
a higher call volume (due to noise, smell, etc.), the logistics of having to transport
chickens to the Humane Society due to the lack of impound facilities for chickens
and the potential for attracting predators.
Kunde echoed some of the same concerns but also added the concern for fire
hazards caused in heating coops and the additional time staff time required for
licensing and inspecting. Each license may require multiple visits to the property.
The initial inspection may only be one visit but if there are complaints then
multiple inspections may be necessary as a follow up.
Grimes said harboring animals is outside of the zoning code but Planning may be
involved due to the fact that coops would be considered an accessory building
and property owners are limited to a total of 1,000 square feet for all accessory
buildings.
Q&As are listed separately.
Commissioners reviewed the study timeline. An open house will not be done as a
public hearing is required for ordinance changes should council decide to move
forward. Seaburg will add to the timeline, the date for the presentation to Council
(March). He will also draft an outline for the final report for the next meeting.
Baker will serve the role of wild life expert at the next meeting.

7. Adjourn
MOVED by Hill, seconded by Struyk, and the motion carried to adjourn.
The meeting adjourned at 8:50 pm. The next scheduled meeting will be
October 22, 2012 at 7 pm.
Baker — Have you had calls about chickens?
Carlson — Yes. About three months ago we got a call about loose chickens in the yard.
The resident was given notice that the chickens had to be gone in five days.
Hill — Does the City ever contract with the Humane Society to take care of animals?
Carlson — We haven't done that yet but we would if the complaint was outside the scope
of what could be handled by the police.
Baker — Have you had to deal with animal hoarding houses or do you call someplace
else to handle those types of situations?
Carlson — A little of both. We have taken animals out of a house and brought them to
the humane society and other times the humane society has gone to the house to
remove the animals.
Baker — You mentioned two calls a day for barking dog calls. What percentage of one
person's day is that?
Carlson — If I get a call right now about a barking dog I would go to the address and if
the dog isn't barking I'm only at the address a few minutes so the entire process might
be 10 minutes, twice a day.
Baker — So generously it could be that a half hour each day is devoted to barking dog
calls?
Carlson — That is probably over stating the amount of time?
Baker — So what I'm hearing is that your main concern is about additional work being
added to your plates.
Carlson — The additional calls won't break the bank I think my bigger concern is that we
would get calls about the smell, the cleanup, the noise, if they believed there was
contamination. If that were come to light those types of calls will take a lot longer than a
barking dog call.
Struyk — What do you think about the requirement that you have to have neighbors
consent?
Carlson — It's hard to say because often times neighbors will tell us after the fact that
they only gave permission because they didn't want to be the bad guy. That is their own
issue but it is a fact. People tend to go along with things just to go along with things. We
deal with a lot of livability issues and interrupt your quality of life. People call the city all
the time to handle issues they don't want to deal with themselves.
Baker — I understand what you're saying but it begs the bigger question of how much
does the city accommodate that type of behavior? It is somewhat of a rhetorical
question however I'd like your perspective in that your job is to meet the needs of the
public and if the public is saying they want this right, is it our job to say no because it will
put a burden on the city?
Carlson — I don't, by any means, think my officers are going to be spending 12 hours a
day on this so when I say it adds to the plate I mean it adds to the plate, it doesn't tip it
to the floor. My bigger concern is that the small number of people that will want to have
chickens will add a disproportionate amount of work for the city in various departments.
The impact may be greater than the benefit.
Clancy — Stacy can attest to this but every day you prioritize what you can handle. It
needs to be understood that just because an ordinance is adopted it doesn't mean that
it will be a priority for the police department.
Carlson — We have three priorities — one, two and three. These would be priority three
calls so complaints may have to wait if we have priority one and two calls.
Hill — When you got the call about chickens a couple months ago, if the ordinance had
been in place at the time, would they have been allowed to keep the chickens? Was it a
bad situation for the chickens?
Carlson — They had to remove the chickens because there was no ordinance in place
for them to have the chickens so we didn't look beyond that. The fact is the chickens
were loose in the front yard which wouldn't be allowed even with an ordinance.
Baker — How many licenses do you issue every year?
Kunde — Well, every apartment building requires a license, every single family home
that is rented requires a license, duplexes, triplexes, etc., and group homes all require
licenses so approximately 700 licenses each year.
Hill — You recommend licensing not permitting?
Grimes — I'm recommending that it not require a conditional use permit because then
you have to go through the whole public hearing process.

The chicken (Gallus gallus comesticus) is the most common bird in the entire world, with a population of
approximately 24 billion in 20031. Unlike their close relative the turkey, chickens are domesticated fowl
and are not normally found in the wild. They have traditionally been: associated with rural villages, farms
and townships as a means of supplying the local people with fresh.,.,,mast and eggs. This is still common in
the United States but was more widespread until the middle of the.;dh century. As part of the suburban

A ComMlsslon m*amber asked Ms. Clouse if there are people using Internet or

Clouse responded that there are in fact a number of learning outlets, but that they
almost all focused on egg production and not about the bird's general care. She
mentioned that she holds classes at her own house and has interested people spend a
few hours taking care of her birds. This way, they get hands on experience and can see
the proper way to care for a chicken. According to Ms. Clouse, hens naturally have
varying laying cycles. Some hens will lay once a day, while others will lay a few times per

that artificially enhances egg production. She stated that the leading cause of death in
hens is due to ovarian cancer and that it is common for hens to die after two years of
egg laying.

chicken -raising process can be a both educating and fulfilling.
Les Larson talked about his personal chicken -raising operation in Oakdale. He spoke
largely on the physical process of keeping the chickens. He went into great detail on his
cleaning, heating, and egg gathering processes. He gets his enjoyment out of making
things as easy and simple as possible, and he thinks there is a good reason everybody
should do that. According to Les, if ones finds that it is a burden to go out and take care

The Commission asked the men about how the coop heating process works. Larson
replied that, with a properly insulated coop, one can expect to pay approximately $5.00
per month. Lies, in response to Larson, stated that'most coops are not as elaborate as
Larson's and that the average chicken -keeper could expect to pay substantially more
$5.00 per month. The chickens' water also needs totheated in the winter or it will freeze
in the winter.

3.3.3 Speaker Summaries
Officer Streff began by speaking about the issue of amending the code for the keeping
of non -contemporary animals within city limits. Speaking about how other cities address
non -contemporary animals, Streff described that each city will have its own unique. way
of how they structure their municipal language. Much of this will depend on the
demographics, geographics, and practicality within their zoning. The Commission asked
about the subjectivity of permitting and whether it creates too much animosity between
neighbors when one person may be allowed whereas another cannot. Streff said he
likes to think of it as realistic arbitration. The City should be allowed to use some
-5-
3.4
common sense within the permit process to create stipulations based on specific
conditions within the property under consideration.
Officer Carey noted that, similar to what Streff had said, chickens in St. Paul are
considered non -contemporary exotic animals that require a permit and inspection
through the St. Paul Animal Control. Carey indicated that the inspections are a way to
make sure that all requirements that were stipulated within the permit are being met.
He also explained that there are occasions when residents keep Tai Roosters for fighting
purposes. Carey also mentioned that there are:-insWnces when different ethnic groups
use male roosters for cultural purposes.
The Commission asked Officer Carey ahaut the numbor pf. permits and the time spent by
the Animal Control in regulating the. hermits. To that end, :Carey stated that there are
over 100 permitted addresses iii the City that keep chickens. There is an officer
dedicated to chickens and spends apltroximately::half of his t chickens. Officer
Streff pointed out that although St Pa 6t, pends;a great deal of time r'q, lating chickens,
St. Paul is much Iargerthart::,Golden Valley with a vastly different demographic, and that

3.6.4 Speaker Summaries
Police Chief Carlson began by describing the police department's role in animal related
calls. They currently respond to loose or lost animal calls, barking dog complaints, and
any other animal related issue that may arise. She described a situation 3 months ago
that involved a stray chicken running in a resident's yard. Upon inspection, it was found
that the homeowner was maintaining a coop and they were asked to remove it. Carlson

went on to explain that the Police Department, as a whole, was not in favor of an
ordinance change to allow chicken keeping. Her reasoning behind this was the
additional workload that would inevitably fall to the police department. Beyond the
permitting process, she foresees the neighbor complaints being one of the most time
consuming issues her department would face regarding the ordinance. When asked
about their policy on taking animals, Chief Carison described how the police department
handles most cases that involve taking animals from a house. There is a city -owned
storage facility that the police department uses is `Mouse animals until they can be
transported to a shelter. For the bigger cases,.hvarding cases for example, the police
department usually contracts with a third pkrty:that may have additional resources. She
made the argument that the city -owned en mal impound facility is really geared for
harboring dogs and cats and that it WOW need to be maditied to handle chickens.

in favor af:ailowing chickens to be kept in the City. After
discussion Council Ifember F�16erg stated that he is not opposed to considering a chicken
ordinance, but as a madprity of tI Council does not support proceeding, he did not think staff
time s6:' cl,be committed:#b the issue."

"7om Burt statedlat, number of residents have requested the City Council amend the City
Code to allow resiettts to keep chickens. He said that staff has some concern about
enforcement, but if the direction from City Council is to go forward with allowing residents to
keep chickens staff would come back to the Council with a draft ordinance. Council Member
Scanlon said she has spoken at length with the Humane Society and Mary Britton Clouse from
Chicken Run Rescue about her concerns including: how regulations would be enforced,
disposing of waste, requiring building permits for coops, heating and cooling the coops, people
not taking care of their chickens, odors and noise. She suggested the issue be tabled until the
Council has had time to do more research about the pros and cons of allowing chickens. After
discussion, the Council consensus was to have the Environmental Commission study the issue
further before a decision was made".

June 252012 Environmental Commission Meeting Minutes
"Bob Lies, owner of EggPlant Urban Farm Supply, spoke to the commission about his
experiences in urban farming. Les Larson, a Planning Commissioner and Chairman of the
Ordinance Review Committee with the City of Oakdale, also spoke to the commission about his
experience raising chickens. Additionally he shared his experience in reviewing codes and
_g-
ordinances for the City of Oakdale. Both presentations are on -file and the Q&A's are listed
separately. Staff handed out 3 -ring binders to each Commissioner, which will assist in keeping
the study material organized."
July 30.2012 Environmental Commission Meeting Minutes
"Guests Officer Keith Streff from the Animal Humane Society and Todd Carey of the St. Paul
Animal Control, shared their experiences in animal control and enforcement. Mr. Carey said that
a permit is required for any St. Paul resident wishing to r�chickens. To obtain the permit the
applicant is required to get permission from 75% of tb n13i$hbors within 150' of their property
but that does not include properties across the streetle awemmended that if the City adopts a
similar permitting process that they require the 0imission trfahe property owners on either
side of the petitioner. St. Paul currently has wive 100 permits - f harboring chickens. Officer
Keith Streff spoke of the importance of having an ordinance that is 1 rceable. QWs from the
discussion are listed separately."
police Chfd Stacy girl on, fire/property maintenance inspector Josh Kunde and
director Mark mes d*4ped how changing the ordinance will impact each of their
Carlson said the -police department currently serves as animal control for the city and they are
not in favor ofiNinend the ordinance. Most of the calls received by the department are
livability issues and"afhelieves the addition of chickens in the city will add to the workload. In
addition she expressed concern regarding a higher call volume (due to noise, smell, etc.), the
logistics of having to transport chickens to the Humane Society due to the lack of impound
facilities for chickens and the potential for attracting predators.
Kunde echoed some of the same concerns but also added the concern for fire hazards caused in
heating coops and the additional time staff time required for licensing and inspecting. Each
license may require multiple visits to the property. The initial inspection may only be one visit
but if there are complaints then multiple inspections may be necessary as a follow up.
.10-
Grimes said harboring animals is outside of the zoning code but Planning may be involved due to
the fact that coops would be considered an accessory building and property owners are limited
to a total of 1,000 square feet for all accessory buildings. Q&As are listed separately.
Commissioners reviewed the study timeline. An open house will not be done as a public hearing
is part of the process if Council decides to move forward with a change in the ordinance.
Seaburg will add to the timeline, the date for the presentation to Council (March). He will also
draft an outline for the final report for the next meeting. Baker will serve the role of wild life
expert at the next meeting."

Chickens study will take 10 months in Golden Valley
By Sun Past Editor on May 1e, 2012 at 12:00 am

BY Sue Webber — Sun Newspapers
A decision on whether people in Golden Valley can keep chickens won't come quickly.
Rich Baker, chair of the city's Environmental Commission, outlined a draft work plan for
that group's study of the issue at a City Council work session May 8.
The commission has been charged with studying whether Golden Valley city code
should be amended to allow people to keep chickens. The City Council originally
stipulated a six-month study, but Baker said last week the work cannot be completed
within six months.
"You gave us eight points to cover, and we felt obligated to cover them," Baker said. "If
we hadn't gotten eight points, we would have tried to do this faster."
The group's motivation will be to resolve the issue before spring 2013, Baker said.
Baker said the group will hear presentations from the following groups:
- Professionals opposed to keeping chickens in urban environments (Animal Humane
Society, Chicken Run Rescue)
- Professionals supportive of keeping chickens in urban environments
- Representatives of cities similar to Golden Valley that allow chickens (Robbinsdale,
New Hope, St. Anthony, and Shoreview)
- Wildlife professionals regarding environmental and wildlife impacts (Department of
Natural Resources)
- A realtor regarding the effect of chickens on real estate values

"We want to hear a diversity of views," Baker said.
A city Web page will be created to accept comments from the public, Baker said.
He also anticipates a public open house in late summer to provide an opportunity for
citizens to address the commission on the issue.
Balser last week also reviewed the Environmental Commission's priorities for 2012, but
said there won't be much time to consider them until the chicken issue is resolved.
'This [the chicken study] will be in place of other things we might be doing," Baker said.
"This will consume us for the next year. We intend to do a good job. It will not be a
wasted effort. There's a lot of interest in this."
The commission's other priorities for 2012 include:
- Transportation alternatives
- Composting
- Natural araa management plans
Pilot project of solar panels on coy buildings
Promotion of student and school projects
Development of a green fair section for the home remodeling fair.
Issues the city would have to decide before allowing chickens, council members said
earlier, include what would constitute humane living conditions for chickens. how the
regulations would be enforced, disposal of waste products, odors, noise, building
permits for coops, and whether the fowl are to be considered pets, egg -producers or
companions.
Two years ago, a 19 -year resident of Golden Valley, spurred by community interest
across the country In raising chickens, told the council many cities are changing their
ordinances to allow chickens in backyards, including New York, Los Angeles, Chicago,
Atlanta, Seattle, San Franciso, Portland, Dallas and Miami.
In the Twin Cities metro area, chickens are allowed in Minneapolis, St. Paul,
Bloomington, Bumsville and New Hope.
But the Golden Valley City Council decided at that time not to carry the discussion any
further.

Golden Valley Takes 10 Months to Study Chickens
If you think government moves slow, consider
this: Golden Valley Js taking ten months to
study a chicken coop ordinance. The city's
Environmental Commission told the City
Council it wilt need that much time to do an
exhaustive study of the chlcken coop code.
Minneapolis and St. Paul already have chicken
coop ordinances.
But, Golden Valley Mayor, Shea Harris, tells 5 EYEWITNESS NEWS they do
nes want to pattern their ordinance after those cities, because Golden
Valley is unique and they want to get Input from citizens. Harris says It
won't cost taxpayers any extra looney, bMuse it Is part of the existing
budget of the Environmental Commission. Harris says the city will look at
What other communities have done With their chicken coop Ordinances,
Local farm supply stores tell 5 EYEWITNESS NEWS sales of Chickens In the
metro area are at an all-time high. Eagan is also considering a chicken
Coop ordinance and Burnsville recently adopted one.

Comments ' I fully support backyard chickens in Golden Valley! It is a great
way to re -connect with our food sources and create great
community -building opportunities with our neighbors. This
summer, we spent a week with my brother, who has backyard
chickens. Of all the adventures and outings we had that week, my
four -yr old's favorite memory was tending to the chickens (and
the excitement of finding double -yolk eggs!)

I have raised chickens in both urban and rural settings and currently know many families in Minneapolis who
raise backyard chickens. I believe allowing residents in Golden Valley to raise chickens would be a very
positive change. It is my experience that backyard chickens are often a point of interest, bringing neighbors
and families together. Hens are quiet and clean animals_ There is no reason roosters need to be present for
individuals to raise backyard chickens for egg production. To avoid noise issues, marry urban areas simply do
not allow roosters.
Currently, my family rents our home in Golden Valley. We enjoy our neighborhood, the city parks, and the
park and recreation programs offered by Golden Valley. We are considering purchasing a home in Golden
Valley_ Not being allowed to raise chickens is a major drawback for us and is likely to be a deciding factor in
where we choose to purchase.

Comments :
I am totally against allowing residents of GV to keep chickens on their property_ A large percentage of my
neighbors have dogs. Some of them don't control their dogs when they bark incessantly, they don't always
leash them, they let them run down the street and don't clean up after them. i have one neighbor that leaves
bags of dog feces on the ground rather than put them in their trash can that is illegally placed beside their
garage because they are too lazy to lift the lid. About 70% of my neighbors don't keep their trash cans in .
their garages or behind their houses even though it's been recently published a half-dozen times_ If they
can't follow these ordinances, allowing chickens is going to be one more ordinance that they will violate. I'm
certain that a few of my neighbors would get chickens and I don't want to hear them clucking, watch them out
of cages and possibly come into my yard or smell thei r odor in the air_ I'm sure the police department
doesn't want the additional task of following up on chicken complaints and I'm sure there will be plenty of
them. Eggs are cheap; people should just continue to buy them at a store. Thanks for allowing me to give you
my opinion.

Public Works Department
763-593-8030 / 763-593-3988 (fax)
To: Tom Burt, City Manager
r
Through: Jeannine Clancy, Director of Public Works
From: Mark Ray, PE, Engineer/Recycling Coordinator
Subject: Maple Grove Yard Waste Drop -Off Site Service
C: Sue Virnig, Finance Director
Background
Currently, the two services that Golden Valley offers to residents who subscribe to recycling
services related to yard waste are the Spring Brush Pickup and Fall Leaf Drop, The Spring Brush
Pickup has $68,000 budgeted for 2013 and the Fall Leaf Drop has $18,000. The Fall Leaf Drop
occurs over four days (one Friday and three Saturdays) in October and November and only leaves
are collected at these events.
Recently, staff was approached by the Maple Grove Yard Waste Site about the possibility of
offering a yard waste drop site to Golden Valley residents similar to Maple Grove, Brooklyn
Center, Dayton, Brooklyn Park, Champlin, New Hope, and Crystal. Upon further inquiry, this
option was determined to be a viable alternative that deserved further consideration. With the
expanded service, there will be additional costs to cover the potential costs of the new program
elimination of some current programs are being considered (Spring Brush Pickup and Fall Leaf
Drop).
Yard Waste Drop -Off Site Service
The Maple Grove Yard Waste Site collects the following items:
• Rock up to 2 inches in diameter
• Black dirt
• Garden waste
• Brush up to 10 inches in diameter
• Leaves
• Grass
G:\Recycling Program\Yard Waste Drop Site\Concept Memo v.2.docx
The site is open seven days a week between April 1 and November 30. Hours of operation are
8 am to 7 pm Monday through Saturday, Noon to 7 pm on Sunday, and closed on major holidays.
Benefits to City Resources and Operating Budget
• No overtime expenses for Fall Leaf Drop Off (Public Works and Police).
• No equipment usage for this event (Public Works and Police).
• Less wear and tear on parking lots at Brookview.
• If there is a storm in the City, residents could take their material to Maple Grove at no
charge to the resident.
• Maple Grove is an Emerald Ash Borer -approved site. If the ash borer eventually hits
Golden Valley, residents can take contaminated trees there. Same is true for City -owned
trees.
• City would not have to contract with leaf hauler every year. With changes in gas prices
and staffing, the hauling cost is likely more volatile than the yard waste disposal fees.
• Maple Grove Yard Waste does include a revenue sharing component from the sale of the
materials if the City enters into a yard waste site contract.
• Residents may purchase compost material from the site, with a portion of the revenue
generated being used to offset the City's use fee for the site.
Resident Benefits
• More materials are accepted at the site than at Fall Leaf Drop-off program.
• Longer hours of operation at the Maple Grove Yard Waste Site.
• Open April 1 to November 30.
• Residents currently use the site, but have to pay more than the rate of the City contract.
Challenges
• If the Fall Leaf Drop event was eliminated to cover the costs of the new program,
residents would have to transport materials farther than they currently do (Brookview).
• If the Spring Brush Pickup event was eliminated to cover the costs of the new program,
residents would have to transport materials farther than they currently do (the curb in
front of their home).
Budget Impact
Based on the 2011 costs for the cities of New Hope and Crystal (which already offer this service to
residents), a conservative estimate is that the cost for offering this service to Golden Valley
residents could be around $49,500 in 2013.
Recommendation
Present this option to the Environmental Commission for their consideration. If the
Environmental Commission recommends approval, then it should be discussed by the City
Council at a Council Manager meeting.

Maple Grove Yard Waste Site
Items Accepted
• Rock up to 2 inches in diameter
• Black dirt
• Garden waste
• Brush up to 10 inches in diameter
• Grass
• Leaves (this is currently all that is accepted at the Fall Leaf Drop)
Hours
• Open April 1 to November 30
• Monday through Saturday Sam to 7pm
• Sunday Noon to 7pm
• Closed on major holidays
Miscellaneous Items to Consider
• If there is a storm in the City, residents could take their material to Maple Grove for
disposal at no charge to the resident (assuming all the items were acceptable).
• Maple Grove is an Emerald Ash Borer -approved site. If the ash borer eventually hits
Golden Valley, residents can take contaminated trees there. Again, City will pay the cost
of disposal.
• Maple Grove Yard Waste does include a revenue sharing component from the sale of the
materials if the City enters into a yard waste site contract.
• Residents may purchase compost material from the site, with a portion of the revenue
generated being used to offset the City's use fee for the site.
• Residents currently use the site, but have to pay more than the rate of the City contract.
• In April through June this year, 145 Golden Valley Residents went to dispose of items at
the site. 13 have gone between Oct 1 and 15th. No information was readily available for
July through September.
• Residents have to transport the materials themselves (roughly 14 miles to the facility)
• If residents chose, they could take their grass clippings to the yard waste site and not have
to pay for that service to their trash haulers.
Consider ending fall leaf drop
• Reduce City equipment usage.
• Less wear and tear on parking lots at Brookview.
• City would not have to contract for leaf hauling every year. With changes in gas prices and
staffing, the hauling cost is likely more volatile than the yard waste disposal fees.
• Residents have to transport the materials themselves (roughly 14 miles to the facility)
• Longer hours of operation at the Maple Grove Yard Waste Site. In 2012 the Fall Leaf Drop
is "open" a total of 24 hours. In one week, the Maple Grove Yard Waste Site is open 73
hours.

Letters were sent to the residents in the 2013 PMP area offering them a free inspection.
PRIVATE DEVELOPMENTS
The Tiburon Apartments
The Tiburon Apartments received preliminary PUD approval by the Planning Commission on
September 10. Staff is currently coordinating the approval process for the development project
with the Housing and Redevelopment work to create a special financing district. The Tiburon
Preliminary PUD approval will go to the City Council on October 16.
Boone Ave. Convenience Center
The Boone Avenue Convenience Center recently received Preliminary PUD approval from the
City Council. It will go before the Planning Commission on October 22 for Final PUD approval,
followed by Council approval in November.
The 3.9.4
The 3.9.4 project, which includes a senior assisted living building and a market rate apartment
building east of the Metropolitan Ballroom, will go before the Planning Commission for
Preliminary PUD approval on November 5. Staff is continuing to work with the developer and
the Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT) to facilitate property acquisition. The
developer held a neighborhood meeting for this project at the Shops at West End.
Meadowbrook Elementary School
Meadowbrook Elementary School is proposing to reconfigure its parking lot to better
accommodate school bus traffic. Meadowbrook Elementary School is in a PUD, so this action
would require a "minor" PUD amendment. It is anticipated that this action will go to the City
Council for approval on later this fall (Minor PUD Amendments do not need Planning
Commission approval).
The Colonnade Apartments
Staff is working with the Trammel Crow Co. on reviewing preliminary site plans for a market
rate, luxury apartment building to be developed on the Colonnade site (the southeast corner of
Golden Hills Dr.). Trammel Crow anticipates submitting its application for a PUD permit soon,
and hopes to go before the Planning Commission in November.
DECOLA PONDS
The Mayors, City Managers and Directors of the three cities met earlier this month. Crystal has
discussed this issue again at a work session and has requested some additional information on
the cost sharing proposal.
RECYCLING UPDATE
Curbside Recycling Update
Comparing the first three quarters of 2012 to 2011, recycling tonnage is up 18.9% (568,800
pounds of more material have been collected) since the transition to single sort recycling. Put
another way, the average home has recycled 80 lbs of more material so far this year than
during the same time frame last year. With the revenue sharing component the City has
brought in $67,089.00 in 2012. Unfortunately, the resale value of the recycled materials has
decreased since earlier this year and has resulted in reduced income from the revenue sharing.

MEMORANDUM
Public Works Department
763-593-8030 / 763-593-3988 (fax)
Date: October 10, 2012
To: Environmental Commission
Through: Jeannine Clancy, Director of Public Works
From: Mark Ray, PE, Engineer/Recycling Coordinator
Subject: St Louis Park Organics Recycling
The City of St Louis Park contracts with Waste Management for City-wide trash service. The City
did a completed study on the trash collected and found that around 40% of all the trash was
considered organic in nature and could be taken to an organic recycling facility. From this study,
City staff was directed to further look into organic collection as part of the City's trash, yard
waste, and recycling service.
St Louis Park staff is currently finalizing their Request for Proposals (RFP) for trash, recycling, and
organics collection. The proposals will be due November 21St and staff will be reviewing the
proposals through the end of the year and early into 2013. Since organics collection is new, the
RFP is very open ended with haulers providing information on how they would collect the
different materials and process them. Until the proposals are received, no additional information
regarding how the organics collection will work is available.
Golden Valley staff is in close communication with our peers in St Louis Park. A lot of contracting
and logistical questions have been raised about how all these services will potentially be
provided. Once the proposals are received and available for public review, Golden Valley staff will
have more information available.
St Louis Park's new trash, recycling, yard waste, and organics (assuming the City Council moves
forward with organics) collection contract will start October 1, 2013.
