A subcommittee will include Commissioners Chuba, Setala, Zehringer, John Exner (Sherburne <br />County), Ann Ostby (Community Education), Bob Freeh (Spectrum High School) and staff. <br />Anyone is welcome to participate at any time. <br />MN Greencorps: Environmental Technician Blake-Bradley announced that she will be putting in <br />an application for 1 - 2 Greencorps people. The City applied for two people last year and was <br />turned down but hopes to be able to have at least one person come to work in Elk River. The <br />application is very detailed and applicants are scored on different areas depending upon the <br />amount of experience a greencorps person could obtain. <br />Project Conserve Phase II: Chair Zehringer commented that there are approximately 200 <br />applicants for Project Conserve Phase II so far. The deadline is August 15t to sign up. He is hoping <br />for approximately 700 households to participate due to expected drop out. A mailing has been <br />done to all ERMU customers and Project Conserve pilot project participants have been recruiting <br />friends and neighbors. Mayor Klinzing stated that she will be in this one and will continue with it <br />even though she cannot receive anything. She added that she may recruit while doing campaign <br />stops. <br />Chair Zehringer stated that waste savings weren't calculated, but he noted that it is possible to <br />save resources without going without amenities. <br />9. Schedule Next ECC Meeting and Identify Agenda Items <br />The next meeting will be held July 21, 2010 at 1:00 p.m. at the Elk River Landfill Environmental <br />Learning Center. It will be a special meeting so no "Other" items will be able to be discussed <br />than what is on the agenda. Environmental Administrator Haug requested any items for the <br />agenda to be sent a week early so that they can be added before the agenda is posted. <br />Chair Zehringer stated that there will be a tour at the end of the meeting for those that are <br />interested. He added that they are looking at an expansion of the facility because there is a lot of <br />gas being "wasted" (enough for three more engines). The expansion could be through fuel cells or <br />stirling engines if it's not done with the conventional engines in place now. <br />10.
