ITEM 5.2. <br /> <br />~ty of <br /> <br />E <br /> <br />iver <br /> <br />MEMORANDUM <br /> <br />TO: <br /> <br />FROM: <br /> <br />DATE: <br /> <br />Mayor and City Council <br /> /, <br /> Lindahl, Zoning Assistant~g~ <br />Kendra <br /> <br />April 15, 1996 <br /> <br />SUBJECT: Environmental Updates <br /> <br />I wanted to update the Council on a number of upcoming events and issues <br />that I am working on at this time. <br /> <br />Attachments <br />· On-going complaint cases spreadsheet <br />· Recycling insert from the Current <br />· Business Recycling Directory (handed out at meeting) <br />· RFP for City Garbage Contract <br /> <br />Code Administration <br /> <br />As summer approaches, the number of code complaints begins to increase. I <br />have only received nine complaints in 1996, but that number will grow as the <br />snow melts and people get outside on a regular basis. We have a number of <br />old cases that could not be completed during the winter and they should be <br />finished in the next two months. We also have a few cases that just are not <br />cooperating and are not complying with the ordinance at this time. <br /> <br />SCORE Funding <br /> <br />On March 14, 1996, the Sherburne County Solid Waste Advisory Committee <br />(SCSWAC) approved $16,658 in 1996 SCORE grants for the City of Elk <br />River. <br /> A. $8622.00 in SCORE funding has been earmarked for adding junk <br /> mail and magazine recycling to our residential recycling routes. We <br /> are renegotiating our hauler contracts this fall, and the addition of <br /> these recyclables will be a part of the new contract. Junk mail and <br /> magazine recycling is tentatively scheduled to begin in December <br /> 1996. <br /> <br /> S:\PLANNING\KENDRA\CCUPDATE.DOC <br />13065 Orono Parkway · P.O.
