Plaisted Companies are interested in establishing a compost site on their <br />property to produce a product for their own use and would be willing to let the City haul <br />leaves, grass clippings and brush chips from our collection facility to their site. This seems to <br />be a very workable solution to me, since the Park and Recreation Department has expressed <br />an interest in developing Hillside Park for public use and is presendy used to store and <br />generate the compost. <br /> <br />With proposed site improvements, we will be enlarging the present compost and brush drop <br />off site, Oak Knoll field 3 will be available for baseball usage for the 2005 season. In 2006, <br />Oak Knoll field 3 will become part of the Public Works site and be used primarily for <br />material storage. <br /> <br />Recommendation: <br />Staff request permission to pursue an agreement with Plaisted Companies to accept City <br />collected leaves, grass and brush chips for composting. <br /> <br />PH:so <br /> <br />4-26-05M&CC Memo Compost Update <br />
