City Planner Date Submir#.-d to (;,,r e;si:n DATE: June 24, 1988 — --- ISUBJ: Recycling Contract with Carver County ---c/4 7 le-to I Attached is a copy of the contract between Chanhassen and Carver County for the funding of the recycling drop off center. At the most, the dropoff center will cost $8 ,600 ( $9 ,000 if promotional tools are implemented [raffles, etc. ] ) (Attachment #1) . ICarver County has stated that they could fund the recycling center for 1988, but that the funds available to Carver County in I 1989 may be less. Therefore, Carver County cannot guarantee total funding for the dropoff center in 1989. Mike Lien from Carver County will attend the Council meeting to receive input from the City Council. Mike Lien needs to know if the City I Council is in support of the dropoff center and would be willing to help support the center financially in 1989. I As reviewed in another memo on this agenda, the city hopes to pursue curbside pickup of recyclables and initiate service beginning January, 1990. Therefore, the Council would have to Iparticipate in the funding of the drop off center for only 1989 . RECOMMENDATION I ' The City Council should decide whether they are in support of the dropoff center and would be willing to participate in the funding of the project in 1989.
