Under Minnesota Statute 115A.921, one legitimate expenditure of the <br />landfill surcharge the city collects is landfill abatement. As part of the agreement to <br />receive the money mentioned, the Boys and Girls Club is to use their building as an <br />educational tool to promote landfill abatement (recycling). The Minnesota Office of <br />Environmental Assistance felt the Boys and Girls Club would provide an excellent <br />opportunity to do this. <br /> <br />The Boys and Girls Club is requesting an additional $11,225 to purchase even more <br />. recycled items for their building. An itemized list is attached to this memo. <br /> <br />Staff is recommending that the city provide these additional funds to the Boys and Girls <br />Club from landfill surcharge money under the conditions placed on the original funding <br />to ensure landfill abatement is stressed. A copy of the agreement for the original <br />$65,000, which contains these conditions, is attached to this memo <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />13065 Orono Parkway · P.O. Box 490 · Elk River, MN 55330.
