Re: 2014 Municipal Recycling Grant Agreement with Washington County
Background: Washington County desires to encourage and support residential recycling and
provides budgeted grant funds to develop recycling projects in the County. Scandia has been
entering into a contract for these grant funds since 1994. The agreement is essentially the same as
the previous agreements.
Issue: Should the City enter into an agreement with Washington County for distribution of
municipal recycling grant funds in 2014?
Proposal Details: The agreement provides for the county paying the city up to $8,024.00 for
curbside recycling program expenses in 2014.
Fiscal Impact: Revenue to the General Fund in the amount of $8,024.00.
Options:
1) Approve the agreement and authorize the Mayor to sign on behalf of the city.
2) Make changes to the agreement.
3) Do not approve the agreement.
Recommendation: Option 1
