Related to that, Council President Kleg has had some ideas 211 00:18:37,890 --> 00:18:42,490 on how we could kind of up our game from a neighbor out engagement perspective, so it'd 212 00:18:42,490 --> 00:18:48,630 be proposing to have that discussion during the June budget workshop. The next topic that 213 00:18:48,630 --> 00:18:55,230 we'd like to go a little deeper on is the housing strategy and specifically the five-year 214 00:18:55,230 --> 00:19:01,590 plan, so that topic would be proposed for next month's discussion to go a little deeper and 215 00:19:01,590 --> 00:19:06,750 visit kind of those different categories in affordable housing. And then last but not 216 00:19:06,750 --> 00:19:11,490 least, we'd like to block a good amount of time to talk about the capital improvement plan. 217 00:19:12,990 --> 00:19:18,790 I outlined in the memo, we've been doing some strategy sessions around the main library. We've been 218 00:19:18,790 --> 00:19:23,930 trying to come up with some financing concepts based on the three design options that the council 219 00:19:23,930 --> 00:19:28,130 had approved or where good was being final three options. 220 00:19:28,330 --> 00:19:31,850 So we'd like to go a little deeper into that and see if you're comfortable. 221 00:19:32,490 --> 00:19:35,430 And then today we're queuing off under a capital firm of plan, 222 00:19:36,070 --> 00:19:41,150 a follow-up on impact for these, so just keep in the momentum going on impact fees. 223 00:19:42,190 --> 00:19:46,790 And then the last thing I put in the memo is to have a discussion today of any additions or adjustments 224 00:19:46,790 --> 00:19:50,430 and the one I'm carrying that's in concept right now. 225 00:19:50,430 --> 00:19:56,770 council member Craig had brought forth previously kind of where the city could go on TODs and 226 00:19:56,770 --> 00:20:03,190 some key corridors and I know she just said that with Derek's team to talk about state street 227 00:20:03,190 --> 00:20:09,690 what could be scoped as a potential endeavor on that. So those are kind of, I guess, the high points 228 00:20:09,690 --> 00:20:14,750 from the work plan. Mr. Mayor, just on the TODs, the reason I brought it up is that the new 229 00:20:14,750 --> 00:20:21,170 transportation bill has specifically has some eligibility for doing some planning for 230 00:20:21,170 --> 00:20:26,370 TODs in it, and there seems to be an opportunity to take advantage of some of that to 231 00:20:26,370 --> 00:20:32,870 do some work that we've already committed to do in our MOU, so that we as we'll have a discussion 232 00:20:32,870 --> 00:20:42,350 about it, and then the two things on here that seem to, you know, I know that this is just 233 00:20:42,350 --> 00:20:51,910 high level list, but the downtown housing initiative, I think that I'd like to see an update 234 00:20:51,910 --> 00:20:52,430 on it. 235 00:20:52,530 --> 00:20:58,670 I know that Council Member McLean is interested in it as well, and so I'm just understanding 236 00:20:58,670 --> 00:21:06,390 where that is and what, as a council, we might be able to help give us visibility or whatever 237 00:21:06,390 --> 00:21:14,210 else it needs and that on Boise competes is a great list and I think this is where it fits. 238 00:21:14,770 --> 00:21:22,050 We don't have anything in here about the efforts to energize the industrial park area and 239 00:21:22,050 --> 00:21:32,290 especially see if we can do something to really increase our ability to handle freight out there. 240 00:21:32,290 --> 00:21:37,440 That's fair. Well, we'll add that specifically in that category because we've been doing a lot on that front. 241 00:21:39,290 --> 00:21:42,230 Jay, thanks for the update. This is excellent work. 242 00:21:42,610 --> 00:21:47,290 The one thing I think I brought up at one point, but I'm not sure if I've seen this in the memo or 243 00:21:47,870 --> 00:21:52,090 on this document was the key needs that the team needs from Council. 244 00:21:52,250 --> 00:21:56,300 Because we talked about any potential gaps on the sponsor side or if there's something that 245 00:21:56,300 --> 00:21:59,900 but we're missing that the team is looking for from us. 246 00:21:59,920 --> 00:22:02,460 I just wanted to make sure that we loop back to that one too, 247 00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:05,740 because I think a lot of this is kind of us asking for support 248 00:22:05,740 --> 00:22:06,560 from the staff. 249 00:22:06,740 --> 00:22:09,280 We'd love to know, what does the staff need from us 250 00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:12,020 if anything, just so we can help advance the work. 251 00:22:12,180 --> 00:22:13,340 Okay, that's very fair. 252 00:22:13,380 --> 00:22:15,320 And I think we could maybe focus in on that a little bit 253 00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:16,420 of the budget workshop. 254 00:22:17,740 --> 00:22:19,940 We are, I mean, we're working through it now, 255 00:22:20,140 --> 00:22:21,540 but we're building making some requests 256 00:22:21,540 --> 00:22:23,760 for some additional kind of one-time resources 257 00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:28,600 to address some of these larger capital primitive plants to get them to kind of their launch 258 00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:33,500 phase. We're realizing we need to add a little resource there. 259 00:22:37,130 --> 00:22:38,650 Any other questions or concerns 260 00:22:38,650 --> 00:22:39,410 about the work plan? 261 00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:42,800 Thank you for your time. 262 00:22:48,970 --> 00:22:49,950 Okay. Next up, 263 00:22:54,430 --> 00:22:56,130 36 street hill road could top 264 00:22:56,130 --> 00:22:58,030 out about landscape plant. 265 00:23:02,690 --> 00:23:04,490 Welcome. Thank you. 266 00:23:05,630 --> 00:23:07,330 Afternoon, Mr. Mayor and Council. 267 00:23:08,150 --> 00:23:12,130 With me today is Toby Norton to talk to you about landscaping 268 00:23:12,130 --> 00:23:17,470 for the 36th Street roundabout and I have a video as well. 269 00:23:19,390 --> 00:23:19,830 All right. 270 00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:38,560 Okay, 271 00:23:44,450 --> 00:23:46,530 so starting out to see that you're oriented. 272 00:23:47,290 --> 00:23:52,310 I'm pretty sure most of you are familiar with the site we've been talking about it for a few years now. 273 00:23:52,310 --> 00:24:00,930 years I think. I actually think it's 12. So in landscaping this project we have a few 274 00:24:00,930 --> 00:24:06,290 constraints that are opposing each other that we're trying to hit that sweet spot with. So here 275 00:24:06,290 --> 00:24:14,010 I'm showing the floodplain and wanted to explain that the aluvial fan effect and so this is the 276 00:24:14,010 --> 00:24:22,010 point mostly where the water floodwaters would be coming in the large 100 year event we would be 277 00:24:22,010 --> 00:24:43,590 expecting the debris coming down here, the highest sensitivity is here at this point where the water would then flow out and one of the main concerns is just anything that would create any kind of dam with that debris that would then push the water and expand the area to flood beyond what's shown here. 278 00:24:43,590 --> 00:24:52,530 This is just a aerial behind that in case anybody need a more details in one to see exactly where that 279 00:24:52,530 --> 00:24:54,970 the floodplain does flow. 280 00:24:55,630 --> 00:25:04,210 So then switching, this is ACHD's plan showing we've got about four different site-distance restrictions 281 00:25:05,630 --> 00:25:09,210 for various movements throughout the roundabout. 282 00:25:09,210 --> 00:25:18,030 So within these areas, you cannot have plants that are over three feet or pardon me. 283 00:25:18,390 --> 00:25:29,350 You need to be, yeah, between that three and seven foot range so that you could see pedestrians, cars, anything else that any other kind of activity. 284 00:25:30,130 --> 00:25:34,330 Additionally, so we've talked about this a little bit briefly about a year ago when we entered into the cost of your agreement. 285 00:25:34,330 --> 00:25:38,990 But typically in a roundabout, you would burn up in the center and then put your plants up 286 00:25:38,990 --> 00:25:39,330 there. 287 00:25:39,570 --> 00:25:43,310 Part of one of the other concerns is that you don't want the headlights to shine through 288 00:25:43,310 --> 00:25:48,630 to the other direction so that people don't get confused, that thinking that car needs 289 00:25:48,630 --> 00:25:49,670 to be on their left side. 290 00:25:53,110 --> 00:25:58,230 So we're working through the site distance, the flood plane, and so with the flood plane, 291 00:25:58,590 --> 00:26:05,670 you want plants that can actually lay down, should debris come, so we're just working kind 292 00:26:05,670 --> 00:26:07,050 a set here. 293 00:26:16,310 --> 00:26:20,830 Oh, maybe I, I have to escape. Thank you. 294 00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:29,460 Maybe not. I worked fine at my desk. 295 00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:44,940 That's okay. So what I wanted to show you with the video one, it shows you a little bit of just the layout and how it operates, but just gives you a perspective on the size of them round about and the landscaping. 296 00:26:44,940 --> 00:26:50,600 gaping, it just gives a little different perspective than the two-dimensional maps that we have here. 297 00:26:59,950 --> 00:27:05,910 So we did take a look at two density plans for landscape, and one was a higher density, 298 00:27:06,590 --> 00:27:13,690 and this one we had to forego because the density of landscaping did create conflicts with the floodplain 299 00:27:13,690 --> 00:27:21,830 and creating that damning effect. So we moved on to the medium density which has less planting in the center here, 300 00:27:21,830 --> 00:27:28,850 But we have swaths of higher plants along the edge to give that appearance of fullness. 301 00:27:30,150 --> 00:27:36,750 So we've got taller grasses and then fading into lavender around the outside and just the opposite on the other corner. 302 00:27:37,510 --> 00:27:41,790 And in the center here we have red carpet roses planned. 303 00:27:42,790 --> 00:27:49,590 We might need to adjust that a bit with some of the grasses just to work on that headlamps, the headlights from the cars. 304 00:27:49,590 --> 00:27:58,190 But we are proposing the carpet roses to help deter pedestrians from walking across the center of the island. 305 00:27:59,050 --> 00:28:08,710 There are also trees, we've got larger trees in each of the lobes of the roundabout as well as ornamentals here at the crab apple. 306 00:28:09,150 --> 00:28:18,470 And we've been working with ACHD also on the, we'll have to do a little bit of tweaking here for those sight distance that the grass is really need to pull back here 307 00:28:18,470 --> 00:28:23,930 we could do the low-growth sumac. So we've got a little bit tweaking but this is the general plan. 308 00:28:25,370 --> 00:28:30,550 These are the specific plants that we've also worked with Jim Lyleon that's spacing again 309 00:28:32,490 --> 00:28:34,510 on the floodplain concerns. 310 00:28:36,720 --> 00:28:39,400 Here is a conceptual rendering of what we're looking at. 311 00:28:42,210 --> 00:28:47,210 And then we ADHD has requested a fence through the center of the round about 312 00:28:47,210 --> 00:28:53,770 out to deter the pedestrians from coming through this. 313 00:28:59,870 --> 00:29:06,590 Mr. Mayor, I think Karen's pausing because she's heard from council leadership that the 314 00:29:06,590 --> 00:29:09,710 fence is not something that we think is a great idea. 315 00:29:09,890 --> 00:29:11,450 We don't support it. 316 00:29:11,970 --> 00:29:17,850 And in addition to that, the fence introduces another barrier to any floodwaters and so from 317 00:29:17,850 --> 00:29:21,090 a flooding perspective, it's actually a worse solution. 318 00:29:21,090 --> 00:29:26,970 and we think that it makes sense to recommend against it for that reason. 319 00:29:31,690 --> 00:29:36,010 Yeah, I agree. I don't like the idea of the fence at all. I think for the flood standpoint, 320 00:29:36,230 --> 00:29:42,190 it makes no sense for changing the vegetation to avoid damning effects and then we put up a fence. 321 00:29:42,510 --> 00:29:43,850 It's completely counterintuitive. 322 00:29:44,710 --> 00:29:52,830 And I think that between the vegetation that's going in, that will help navigate the pedestrian activity. 323 00:29:52,830 --> 00:29:59,970 And I'm sure that we can work on the enforcement piece and get the behaviors lined up properly, we should be fine. 324 00:30:03,790 --> 00:30:14,550 So the last item is the funding. So we have both the initial construction cross for both the high density and the medium density and then the annual maintenance cost. 325 00:30:14,670 --> 00:30:31,430 And as you've heard from us, the high density is not not an option, but it's here for comparison. So a funding source has not been identified for this for the 89,000 for construction and under 5,000 for the annual maintenance. 326 00:30:31,430 --> 00:30:41,430 maintenance. We do have an opportunity to come back before you should do approve this in June for an interim budget change. 327 00:30:43,330 --> 00:30:47,430 So a question on the maintenance. Do we have water rights in the 328 00:30:48,350 --> 00:30:54,430 Stuart Gulch in the ditch? Can we use that water? Do we have other water rights there? Can the school give us some? 329 00:30:55,870 --> 00:30:58,770 Mr. Mayor council member, we'd have to look into the water rights. 330 00:30:58,770 --> 00:31:02,990 So the way we have it designed now is a water meter has been installed on the island for 331 00:31:02,990 --> 00:31:11,050 our use as far as I understand it was not feasible to get the irrigation water up to the 332 00:31:11,050 --> 00:31:12,090 island there. 333 00:31:12,370 --> 00:31:16,710 So we resulted in using United Water for irrigation. 334 00:31:18,490 --> 00:31:21,410 It seems like we could circle back at least with the school district. 335 00:31:21,630 --> 00:31:25,650 I know they irrigate that front part and I don't think it's with potable water. 336 00:31:25,650 --> 00:31:33,030 Potentially we could utilize their water source and pay them for it. It would certainly be cheaper than using potable. 337 00:31:33,690 --> 00:31:42,590 Sure. Yes, and we are using drip irrigation. So we would be applying it in very low volumes, but certainly cheaper if we were able to use irrigation water. 338 00:31:43,230 --> 00:31:51,110 Here isn't there any project money for the media and so on or for the center of a roundabout. 339 00:31:52,530 --> 00:31:59,570 It's just left as dirt in ACC plan for these. 340 00:32:00,270 --> 00:32:05,090 Mr. Mayor, maybe I should back up, but I kind of went over quickly early on. 341 00:32:05,630 --> 00:32:10,810 You might recall that I came before you probably got a year ago with, we kind of called it the Moonscape plan. 342 00:32:10,810 --> 00:32:17,250 that was gravel with large boulders and that's what if we didn't participate that's what 343 00:32:17,250 --> 00:32:23,050 ACHD would put in the center of the round about to take care of the concerns that we talked about 344 00:32:23,050 --> 00:32:29,650 but actually the boulders even had floodplain concerns as well that they would move or could move 345 00:32:29,650 --> 00:32:39,570 with that much water and debris. So at that time Mayor and Council elected to enter into a 346 00:32:40,270 --> 00:32:46,630 and stall and maintain landscaping in this round about this in a very prominent location. 347 00:32:49,880 --> 00:32:53,060 I guess follow up on that. 348 00:32:53,220 --> 00:32:54,780 Remind me because I can't remember. 349 00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:59,000 Does the cost share include that ACHD will cover the cost of whatever it would have cost 350 00:32:59,000 --> 00:33:01,020 for the moon's cape and the boulders? 351 00:33:01,740 --> 00:33:03,360 Or do we cover the entire cost? 352 00:33:05,220 --> 00:33:10,620 Mr. Mayor, council member, we didn't push that issue at that time. 353 00:33:11,420 --> 00:33:21,260 In the past, ACHD has been made pretty clear that if they were to do gravel or whatever they would do would not be a credit. 354 00:33:21,660 --> 00:33:29,980 When we went through the transportation land use integration plan, that was a policy that they stated that point. 355 00:33:30,720 --> 00:33:34,160 And we did not revisit that issue with those folders. 356 00:33:36,020 --> 00:33:41,120 One, our moonscape, a clever day, and we would take that back to the exchange team. 357 00:33:41,400 --> 00:33:47,240 If it could have spent something to do moon, it would seem like we'd get that much. 358 00:33:50,180 --> 00:33:52,240 How much moonscape cost, but it's not nothing. 359 00:33:53,760 --> 00:33:54,280 Go ahead. 360 00:33:55,760 --> 00:34:00,980 Karen, on the landscaping, I would agree that a fence is not appropriate. 361 00:34:01,700 --> 00:34:05,220 I think we could get there with vegetation and education. 362 00:34:05,220 --> 00:34:12,220 And was the fence suggestion was that something that was going to be funded by ACHD or? 363 00:34:13,940 --> 00:34:22,480 Mr. Mayor, we did not had a follow-up conversation with ACHD on the fence yet. 364 00:34:22,620 --> 00:34:24,860 I was going to touch a base with you today. 365 00:34:24,980 --> 00:34:25,800 That's a real good. 366 00:34:32,460 --> 00:34:39,020 So Mr. Mayor, am I taking that not to being that we're okay with the medium density and to come back with 367 00:34:39,020 --> 00:34:47,580 Mr. Mayor, I don't know if we need clear direction, but if we do, I would, as you 368 00:34:47,580 --> 00:34:53,080 can understand, say that we are supportive of the medium density landscaping and would 369 00:34:53,080 --> 00:35:00,560 ask, staff to review the water rights issue and to review the cost share agreement with ACHD. 370 00:35:01,540 --> 00:35:05,680 That seemed reasonable. They've got some money to do. 371 00:35:05,800 --> 00:35:09,520 They had an, you know, lesser treatment. 372 00:35:09,700 --> 00:35:13,480 They should have that much to contribute to the more involved ones. 373 00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:17,260 So, okay, Matt, can you take that back and with all? 374 00:35:17,520 --> 00:35:19,260 And that we're not supportive of the fans. 375 00:35:21,360 --> 00:35:21,500 Okay. 376 00:35:21,760 --> 00:35:22,420 Thank you. 377 00:35:22,640 --> 00:35:22,940 Thanks. 378 00:35:31,620 --> 00:35:32,180 All right. 379 00:35:34,240 --> 00:35:35,600 It packed free program. 380 00:35:42,670 --> 00:35:45,170 Excuse me, I think I called you Matt, right? 381 00:35:45,350 --> 00:35:46,530 I'm sorry about that. 382 00:35:46,890 --> 00:35:49,610 I just, that was the previous ACCC guy. 383 00:35:49,890 --> 00:35:51,550 You know you're not all being Matt. 384 00:35:51,950 --> 00:35:52,750 Thank you. 385 00:35:52,750 --> 00:35:54,210 Thank you. 386 00:35:54,470 --> 00:35:56,850 Good afternoon, Mayor Council members. 387 00:35:57,870 --> 00:35:58,130 Yes. 388 00:35:58,670 --> 00:36:03,970 We are here to give some follow-up to three roundtable sessions that we had with some 389 00:36:03,970 --> 00:36:09,150 developers regarding our proposed capital improvement updates and impact 390 00:36:09,150 --> 00:36:19,050 program modifications. We did have three, certainly in my opinion, three very successful 391 00:36:19,050 --> 00:36:27,070 round tables. We invited approximately 50 members of the development community and had nearly 20 392 00:36:27,070 --> 00:36:34,650 folks attend to these round table sessions in participate. I'm going to go through very quickly 393 00:36:34,650 --> 00:36:43,190 seven primary themes that we heard from these round tables and then for more entertaining 394 00:36:43,190 --> 00:36:49,210 reading or creative reading, if you'd like, are some written comments that I have received 395 00:36:49,210 --> 00:36:55,070 after the round table sessions and then I also have a list of all of those folks that actually 396 00:36:55,070 --> 00:37:04,010 attended the round tables for you. The first theme that we heard was regarding 397 00:37:04,650 --> 00:37:08,570 the land use categories for the non-residential. 398 00:37:09,030 --> 00:37:11,110 So we have the commercial and the industrial 399 00:37:11,650 --> 00:37:15,890 and really what we're hearing was the high increase 400 00:37:15,890 --> 00:37:21,910 the substantial increase to the commercial category 401 00:37:22,830 --> 00:37:24,690 relative to the industrial 402 00:37:25,650 --> 00:37:29,070 and that the commercial categories seemed very broad. 403 00:37:29,730 --> 00:37:33,730 And we have a lot of comments and if there was a further breakdown on that 404 00:37:34,990 --> 00:37:48,650 And so what staff is recommending is that the city consider moving in that direction to get a breakdown on that and there's a lot of work that would have to move for us to move into that direction, but that is our recommendation. 405 00:37:48,650 --> 00:38:08,330 And then regarding the commercial and the industrial that significant increase, we are also recommending at this time that we consider phasing that impact fee in until as we progress and get our refined land use categories. 406 00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:11,440 What's in there? 407 00:38:12,380 --> 00:38:12,880 Mr. Rain. 408 00:38:13,420 --> 00:38:14,180 Good question. 409 00:38:14,940 --> 00:38:19,900 So you'll come back to us later with what the phasing schedule would look like. 410 00:38:20,120 --> 00:38:21,460 But you're just saying overall direction. 411 00:38:22,360 --> 00:38:25,420 That's what you heard, and that's what you're recommending to us. 412 00:38:26,040 --> 00:38:27,820 Mayor, Council Member, that is correct. 413 00:38:27,940 --> 00:38:32,840 Certainly following any feedback we get from you today or a redirection that we get from you today. 414 00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:38,660 We will follow up next month with a final study where we will validate all the calculations. 415 00:38:39,720 --> 00:38:46,080 produced the final output product and bring all final recommendations to you at that time. 416 00:38:47,480 --> 00:38:53,900 I think the primary concern that was heard in the round tables was that with that 417 00:38:53,900 --> 00:38:59,340 category being so broad when you have a function like retail that's very call intensive 418 00:38:59,340 --> 00:39:04,880 and then you have a function of white office that is not at all intensive that there 419 00:39:04,880 --> 00:39:09,000 to be a little more nuanced and that kind of goal. So that's really kind of what drove that. 420 00:39:12,030 --> 00:39:18,770 Mr. Mayor. I like this list. I guess my only concern is that it gets so complex that it's 421 00:39:18,770 --> 00:39:19,790 going to be hard to apply. 422 00:39:22,330 --> 00:39:27,950 So I guess I would warn that we try not to get too much into the details. 423 00:39:28,050 --> 00:39:34,490 But I think you've identified probably the primary differences in use. So. 424 00:39:34,490 --> 00:39:36,030 Mr. Mayor. 425 00:39:36,250 --> 00:39:36,490 I have one. 426 00:39:36,790 --> 00:39:38,090 All the quick question also. 427 00:39:38,490 --> 00:39:42,610 So going forward if these were the categories that it would be defined going forward 428 00:39:43,750 --> 00:39:47,090 as new commercial comes on. 429 00:39:47,450 --> 00:39:52,110 It would fall into one of the four categories and the fee would be associated would be 430 00:39:52,110 --> 00:39:53,390 based on that category. 431 00:39:54,930 --> 00:39:56,510 Mayor, Council Member, that is correct. 432 00:39:56,670 --> 00:40:01,650 Certainly going forward and what I envision is that we would first come to you with specific 433 00:40:01,650 --> 00:40:19,110 we would agree to those first and then start working with staff to align the data that is required to make to calculate those impact fees accordingly, as well as our permitting system to ensure that we're classifying the new development 434 00:40:19,110 --> 00:40:20,930 on the purple and use those classifications. 435 00:40:24,470 --> 00:40:27,390 The second primary concern that we're hearing about 436 00:40:27,390 --> 00:40:31,850 was regarding Barbara Bally, and I believe it's because 437 00:40:31,850 --> 00:40:35,130 we're experiencing a lot of high growth in that area right now. 438 00:40:35,570 --> 00:40:39,070 There was concern that the population projections were 439 00:40:39,810 --> 00:40:40,450 understated. 440 00:40:42,950 --> 00:40:45,430 And so in the memo that was provided to you, 441 00:40:45,610 --> 00:40:48,110 we've clarified how those projections were calculated 442 00:40:48,110 --> 00:41:01,770 And how it does right now align with state code, it does need to be according to engineering and planning criteria and be approved projections and compass is definitely that source for the valley. 443 00:41:02,930 --> 00:41:12,750 And our suggestion our recommendation is that staff also work with compass right now they're in the process of updating those projections in that we work with them. 444 00:41:12,750 --> 00:41:18,550 very diligently to get any updates or modifications accordingly. 445 00:41:21,150 --> 00:41:26,780 Tonya, on this one, I think you're on the right track. I guess the one thing I would add is that we should have 446 00:41:27,990 --> 00:41:36,390 PTSD or a calculation of how many building lots are approved today and check those with the numbers that we've got. 447 00:41:36,390 --> 00:41:38,530 And if they're out of line, in other words, 448 00:41:38,670 --> 00:41:41,350 if those productions are actually below what we're already, 449 00:41:41,450 --> 00:41:45,290 we already have approved either conceptually or in plaat, 450 00:41:46,470 --> 00:41:50,010 we should immediately adjust them to that number that we've approved, 451 00:41:50,770 --> 00:41:53,910 and then work with Compass to update in 2018 452 00:41:53,910 --> 00:41:58,670 when they do their published update, if that makes sense. 453 00:41:59,070 --> 00:42:03,190 So I'm not sure that we're even caught up to what we've approved today. 454 00:42:03,950 --> 00:42:07,050 Mayor Council member, I will certainly do that. 455 00:42:07,730 --> 00:42:12,550 I would just like to caution too on the flip side, though, of what we've been seen through, 456 00:42:12,610 --> 00:42:17,570 at least some of the revenue analysis, is that some of our other areas, such as Southwest, 457 00:42:19,170 --> 00:42:23,530 are showing much significantly slower from a revenue perspective, 458 00:42:24,650 --> 00:42:25,590 slower growth. 459 00:42:25,970 --> 00:42:31,630 And so we may want to broaden it at not just to look at Barbara Valley in terms of accelerated growth 460 00:42:31,630 --> 00:42:36,330 on those projections and validated that way, but also look at Southwest, some of the areas 461 00:42:36,330 --> 00:42:41,270 that are going slower than anticipated to see if the population protection there is not 462 00:42:41,270 --> 00:42:42,510 also overstated. 463 00:42:47,400 --> 00:42:54,220 The third item is, and you'll see it in the, it was came in and is a written comment, was 464 00:42:54,220 --> 00:43:05,440 on residential expansion, since we are proposing to move to based on square footage of what 465 00:43:05,440 --> 00:43:14,100 or a family room, et cetera, right now we do charge impact fees if we expand for non-residential 466 00:43:14,640 --> 00:43:21,500 and upon research what we did find is that for a lot of jurisdictions that do base impact fees 467 00:43:21,500 --> 00:43:28,500 for residential on square footage there are impact fees assessed for additions in that square footage 468 00:43:28,500 --> 00:43:34,960 but the most common threshold is at 25% of an increase and that was applicable to all 469 00:43:34,960 --> 00:43:39,640 expansion, it's not just residential, but it applied to the non-residential expansion 470 00:43:39,640 --> 00:43:40,620 as well. 471 00:43:41,600 --> 00:43:48,140 So that is why a staff would recommend that we consider as a fair and equitable application. 472 00:43:50,840 --> 00:43:55,020 The further phase the impact fees are, I don't know, that's organic end up with. 473 00:43:55,140 --> 00:44:01,820 Are we allowed to implement the phase to approach from started we have to revisit it once? 474 00:44:02,900 --> 00:44:07,640 I mean let's say we phased it a little every year, we could we do that at the outside, 475 00:44:07,680 --> 00:44:11,560 we have to come back in, amend the ordinance in a year. 476 00:44:12,320 --> 00:44:20,100 Mayor, in the research that I've done, if a jurisdiction had phased it, I had typically 477 00:44:20,100 --> 00:44:25,160 seen where they had outlined the entire phased approach and had approved the entire 478 00:44:25,160 --> 00:44:26,260 phased approach. 479 00:44:29,920 --> 00:44:30,880 The fourth item? 480 00:44:31,280 --> 00:44:31,960 Mr. Mayor. 481 00:44:32,160 --> 00:44:32,500 Who has? 482 00:44:32,500 --> 00:44:59,400 Back to this last one, certainly believe that large expansions of commercial uses need to have an impact fee adjustment if they are over a certain amount, but it occurs to me that assessing an impact fee on a remodel or addition to a residence. 483 00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:09,260 Actually, is a disincentive to remodel and renovate or existing housing stock in some degree. 484 00:45:09,580 --> 00:45:15,140 And so I wonder if this is worth maybe a little bit larger discussion or at least a different threshold, 485 00:45:15,380 --> 00:45:18,140 maybe a 50 percent threshold instead of 25 percent. 486 00:45:18,880 --> 00:45:23,820 I think we want to insent the renovation and remodel of our existing housing stock. 487 00:45:24,620 --> 00:45:25,820 to know 488 00:45:30,040 --> 00:45:32,840 how other council members feel about that. 489 00:45:35,970 --> 00:45:40,630 Council member, like I can certainly research it further to see what other jurisdictions do. 490 00:45:40,970 --> 00:45:42,550 Okay, thank you. 491 00:45:45,720 --> 00:45:47,400 The fourth item that was discussed. 492 00:45:49,200 --> 00:45:53,640 Yeah, I just want to make a comment on what council member played brought up. 493 00:45:53,640 --> 00:45:55,480 Because I think when we're talking about 494 00:45:57,160 --> 00:46:00,880 remodels and additions, it depends on the use. 495 00:46:00,880 --> 00:46:07,080 where if someone's doing an addition, that's an excessive rolling unit or intended to be a separate 496 00:46:07,080 --> 00:46:12,340 or a living quarter, it makes perfect sense for there to be a development fee assessed on that, 497 00:46:12,480 --> 00:46:15,800 because an impact fee to be assessed on that, because it would be an additional population. 498 00:46:16,600 --> 00:46:21,960 If somebody is remodeling an older home, and it's the same people living in the home, 499 00:46:22,220 --> 00:46:26,180 it doesn't seem all fair that there's an impact fee assessed on that model. 500 00:46:26,180 --> 00:46:33,140 it's already been accumulated somewhere, and so I think there's a difference in the type of 501 00:46:33,140 --> 00:46:37,620 remodel that we're talking about. And you're very correct, Mayor Council member Jordan, 502 00:46:38,080 --> 00:46:42,100 certainly for remodels that have no expansion of the footprint or the square footage, 503 00:46:42,280 --> 00:46:49,760 would have no impact fee associated. There's typically just such a diff if the size is increased. 504 00:46:50,420 --> 00:46:54,960 But Mr. Mayor, I mean, that still doesn't make any sense today, because what if a family is adding 505 00:46:54,960 --> 00:47:02,100 a family room. You know, it's the same people we're talking about population for residential 506 00:47:02,100 --> 00:47:09,440 impact. And it's the same group people living in the home. They're not adding, you know, 507 00:47:09,440 --> 00:47:15,100 turning the garage into an apartment or something like that. So I, that concerns me. I'm not sure 508 00:47:15,100 --> 00:47:20,660 about that one yet. And I wonder what percentage of our impact fee collection we'd even be talking 509 00:47:20,660 --> 00:47:27,660 about in terms of these type of remodels because it may be such a small percentage that 510 00:47:28,700 --> 00:47:33,440 we need to look at the whole of it first before we go further with that one. 511 00:47:33,880 --> 00:47:35,380 I will definitely do some more work on that. 512 00:47:35,380 --> 00:47:36,260 Thank you. 513 00:47:38,420 --> 00:47:46,380 The next item was discussed and you'll see in now written comments were also received regarding 514 00:47:47,380 --> 00:47:52,680 just commercial parking structures. So these are structures that are 515 00:47:52,680 --> 00:47:59,380 associated specifically with any type of other commercial building. And what I 516 00:47:59,380 --> 00:48:03,840 had had found in some research is that a lot of jurisdictions these were 517 00:48:03,840 --> 00:48:10,360 exempt as being accessory. So I asked legal to do a little bit of research to 518 00:48:10,360 --> 00:48:17,820 see if that was also applicable and what legal had come back with is that it does sound very 519 00:48:17,820 --> 00:48:26,280 duplicative of an impact fee under our state code as well. So for that reason, our recommendation 520 00:48:26,280 --> 00:48:40,340 at this time is that if it is just a standalone parking garage structure, we would deem it as 521 00:48:40,340 --> 00:48:45,200 have a building and I'm building a parking structure as part of that that serves that building, 522 00:48:46,300 --> 00:48:51,900 that the parking structure square footage would would be exempt. That would make sense to me. 523 00:48:52,600 --> 00:49:01,140 But a separate parking structure that I'm intending to utilize to make a profit to rent those 524 00:49:01,140 --> 00:49:09,180 spaces and make a profit does have an impact because it does serve more cars coming into downtown 525 00:49:09,180 --> 00:49:15,040 and that doesn't seem like, even though it may serve existing buildings, it does seem to 526 00:49:15,040 --> 00:49:19,540 mean that, so to me, it seems backwards that the stand-alone structure would be the one 527 00:49:19,540 --> 00:49:25,860 that we would do an impact fee on in the one that would be part of a separate development. 528 00:49:26,320 --> 00:49:31,480 Another development, even if it was a separate structure, but it was associated with a larger 529 00:49:31,480 --> 00:49:36,380 development, those I could see being exempt. I don't know how other folks feel. 530 00:49:36,380 --> 00:49:46,000 It's managed to question, would you envision, would you look at it as a commercial use at that point then if we were to have impact fees? 531 00:49:46,420 --> 00:49:56,280 Well, I know from, I guess I'm saying from a police, especially from a police and fire standpoint, that building does, in fact, have impact on service needs and service provision. 532 00:49:59,600 --> 00:50:06,780 So maybe, maybe exempt from park, I could see that, but I think exempt from police and fire seems to me to be, 533 00:50:07,380 --> 00:50:11,220 I don't know, how other folks feel about it. 534 00:50:11,580 --> 00:50:13,320 Mr. Mayor, I'll just chime in on that. 535 00:50:13,720 --> 00:50:16,860 I think having it go this route, based on recommendation. 536 00:50:17,820 --> 00:50:20,220 I don't know if it would help and send others to build them. 537 00:50:20,460 --> 00:50:24,780 And I almost see that if we had a problem or there was too much parking, 538 00:50:24,900 --> 00:50:25,620 that's one thing. 539 00:50:25,740 --> 00:50:28,380 But the fact that we have too few parking for the future, 540 00:50:29,280 --> 00:50:30,720 as we look at our downtown, 541 00:50:31,420 --> 00:50:34,220 this seems like it could be a good policy decision for us to help 542 00:50:34,220 --> 00:50:35,500 and send some of that activity. 543 00:50:35,500 --> 00:50:41,480 because I don't see that adding it is increasing the service, you think it's going to draw more cars. 544 00:50:41,620 --> 00:50:45,900 I think we have the cars already coming, but there's no where to put them in a good way. 545 00:50:46,140 --> 00:50:49,400 They're using all the surface slots, but if we can have them in a parking garage, 546 00:50:49,880 --> 00:50:50,900 then I should be a better use. 547 00:50:51,560 --> 00:50:58,080 So I like this because it seems like it'll get us closer to having higher likelihood of having parking garage partners in the future. 548 00:50:59,080 --> 00:51:03,140 And so because it's almost a supply and demand piece, I support the recommendation. 549 00:51:04,540 --> 00:51:07,840 That's my take on on this one. 550 00:51:07,940 --> 00:51:13,920 And Mayor Council members, under the new land use categories, the parking garage, if 551 00:51:13,920 --> 00:51:20,280 impact fees were imposed would be under the industrial classification, which is the lower 552 00:51:20,280 --> 00:51:21,220 lower rate. 553 00:51:21,600 --> 00:51:26,760 But like I said, up on research, when I did find jurisdictions with fire and police 554 00:51:26,760 --> 00:51:31,940 impact fees, in many cases, these were specifically called out as exempt. 555 00:51:39,140 --> 00:51:40,600 more research. 556 00:51:46,510 --> 00:51:54,930 The next item is regard to infill versus new development in more of the open-space areas. 557 00:51:57,650 --> 00:52:04,630 And specifically, I assumed this was around the fire stations, and you'll see we did have an email response 558 00:52:04,630 --> 00:52:13,170 of where there's something similar to the part situation of serving a primary close area, 559 00:52:13,450 --> 00:52:19,670 and then there's also a regional benefit, but it's very challenging to come up with different 560 00:52:19,670 --> 00:52:28,330 degrees of impact for invalve versus new. And many other elements that need to be considered 561 00:52:29,670 --> 00:52:30,870 regarding that. 562 00:52:31,110 --> 00:52:37,850 Certainly going forward, we can look at other methods of determining that degree of impact. 563 00:52:38,810 --> 00:52:45,850 At this time, what we have is our policy to provide an equal and uniform level of service. 564 00:52:51,380 --> 00:52:51,900 On there. 565 00:52:52,140 --> 00:52:54,080 Tonya, I think you're right. 566 00:52:54,220 --> 00:52:58,040 I think at this point it would be pretty difficult to figure out that different level 567 00:52:58,040 --> 00:53:04,980 service. I would like us to explore in the future doing with fire what we did with parks which 568 00:53:04,980 --> 00:53:12,000 is create that regional impact versus the localized impact. And in that case, the capital 569 00:53:12,000 --> 00:53:19,520 costs of new local stations may or may not be a reality. And if they're not, then infill could 570 00:53:19,520 --> 00:53:24,180 be an example. But I think that's a big, much bigger discussion than would take a lot of work. 571 00:53:24,180 --> 00:53:27,800 I can't see it being ready for this, this iteration. 572 00:53:31,660 --> 00:53:32,160 It's agreed. 573 00:53:33,100 --> 00:53:36,560 Our next item is regarding affordable housing. 574 00:53:37,640 --> 00:53:43,040 As you know our current policy does state that affordable housing may exempt 575 00:53:43,040 --> 00:53:44,460 upon your approval. 576 00:53:45,700 --> 00:53:47,240 And we are moving in that direction. 577 00:53:47,920 --> 00:53:51,180 We this year in 16, we did have some funding set aside 578 00:53:51,180 --> 00:53:53,480 and we did have one request for this exemption 579 00:53:53,480 --> 00:53:56,580 and it was a very successful housing project. 580 00:53:57,680 --> 00:53:59,960 So I think the city is moving in a good direction. 581 00:54:01,400 --> 00:54:06,340 And there can probably be a little more outreach on that. 582 00:54:07,580 --> 00:54:15,220 Because from this comment, I took it to be that it's just not known about this exemption. 583 00:54:15,320 --> 00:54:16,680 But it is available out there. 584 00:54:16,820 --> 00:54:19,400 So we do need to do a little more public outreach in that area. 585 00:54:20,970 --> 00:54:23,770 And then Mr. Mayor, I'm quick on that. 586 00:54:24,010 --> 00:54:25,550 So you're saying more research on that? 587 00:54:26,070 --> 00:54:32,970 No, right now it's maybe deemed not suggesting we say exempt it from impact fees. 588 00:54:33,050 --> 00:54:34,130 You're saying more research. 589 00:54:34,610 --> 00:54:36,370 I want to make sure I understood what you're suggesting. 590 00:54:37,190 --> 00:54:37,810 Thank you. 591 00:54:38,110 --> 00:54:39,090 Mayor, Council Member Thompson. 592 00:54:39,910 --> 00:54:43,310 It is allowed affordable housing and has some criteria to meet. 593 00:54:43,530 --> 00:54:46,470 And we have that criteria outlined in our ordinance currently. 594 00:54:47,710 --> 00:54:59,290 It's not a blanket exemption because the one of the criteria that is required in that's per state code is that we have to have, we have to replace that impact fee revenue from another source. 595 00:55:00,730 --> 00:55:07,730 So in 2016, we have set aside funding to actually replace that impact fee revenue upon request for this exemption. 596 00:55:07,730 --> 00:55:12,310 And that's where we've had one request, it was very successful and we did replace that 597 00:55:12,310 --> 00:55:15,830 impact fee revenue. 598 00:55:16,490 --> 00:55:23,990 But what it appears to be is that the development community is just unaware that we do 599 00:55:23,990 --> 00:55:30,370 have this and it is available and they have to meet criteria for that but we are moving 600 00:55:30,370 --> 00:55:31,190 in that direction. 601 00:55:33,900 --> 00:56:02,280 Thank you Mr. Mayor, I kind of favor the way that we have this set up now because it gives us the opportunity based on the code section that says that we have to replace the revenue to review it for consistency and to really make sure that the criteria are being met and the community is being served, whatever the application is because I think affordable housing is something that can be defined in a variety of different ways. 602 00:56:02,280 --> 00:56:07,460 and favors the review of these individually by project. 603 00:56:07,720 --> 00:56:09,360 But I do agree that we need to do a better job 604 00:56:09,360 --> 00:56:11,200 to get the word out on this. 605 00:56:11,780 --> 00:56:12,280 Thank you. 606 00:56:12,980 --> 00:56:17,500 Secretary, I, the category I'm a particular fan 607 00:56:17,500 --> 00:56:19,560 of this institutional category, 608 00:56:19,680 --> 00:56:21,600 which we've never had, right? 609 00:56:23,320 --> 00:56:28,620 Because the book, not all those uses are tax exempt 610 00:56:30,740 --> 00:56:34,640 But the needs are still there, so I think that's a good category. 611 00:56:34,960 --> 00:56:42,680 I don't want to start giving away, you know, the same kind of request could be made of these. 612 00:56:42,880 --> 00:56:44,520 And I really like this category. 613 00:56:44,740 --> 00:56:47,600 They're getting this exemptions in all these other ways. 614 00:56:47,920 --> 00:56:49,600 The impact you should be paid, I think. 615 00:56:50,920 --> 00:56:53,740 So, that's the only thing that makes me nervous about the affordable housing one 616 00:56:54,360 --> 00:56:58,820 Are we open in the door for more requests like that, but anyway? 617 00:57:04,290 --> 00:57:04,310 Okay. 618 00:57:04,350 --> 00:57:08,130 The very last item, and that will just be part of this study. 619 00:57:09,310 --> 00:57:14,790 It turns out that you'll see it in the written comments of different 620 00:57:14,790 --> 00:57:18,970 Comparabilities, different cities, from developers perspective of what 621 00:57:18,970 --> 00:57:22,850 they compare themselves against and where they do business. 622 00:57:22,850 --> 00:57:27,970 So we will certainly include some of these cities in that final study. 623 00:57:30,300 --> 00:57:33,360 Tony, on this one, can you make sure to just connect with Nick Miller? 624 00:57:33,600 --> 00:57:37,300 This is a line with the work that came out of boys he competes. 625 00:57:37,520 --> 00:57:41,880 Because I know there were several comparable cities that we looked at and there was multiple categories. 626 00:57:42,080 --> 00:57:46,900 It'd be great to line those and maybe we'll learn something new or maybe we can add a city or two 627 00:57:46,900 --> 00:57:48,320 that really came out of that study. 628 00:57:48,460 --> 00:57:51,700 So just make sure to sync up with him because this really fits in the boys. 629 00:57:51,700 --> 00:57:56,980 If we're going to be a place where you can develop, we want to make sure that we're comparable 630 00:57:56,980 --> 00:57:58,360 across those other markets. 631 00:57:58,620 --> 00:57:59,180 So that'd be helpful. 632 00:57:59,500 --> 00:57:59,620 Yes. 633 00:57:59,800 --> 00:58:00,560 Thank you. 634 00:58:00,920 --> 00:58:02,680 Thank you. 635 00:58:02,940 --> 00:58:03,800 Mr. Mayor. 636 00:58:04,960 --> 00:58:05,460 Tonya. 637 00:58:05,480 --> 00:58:07,820 Thank you for working on this. 638 00:58:07,940 --> 00:58:11,160 You state in your memo, and I want to ask you a question about it. 639 00:58:11,360 --> 00:58:17,960 The developer feedback was very positive about the increased impact fees schedule. 640 00:58:17,960 --> 00:58:22,720 That would surprise me, unless you didn't talk about how much those were. 641 00:58:23,540 --> 00:58:30,740 Mayor Councilmember Ludwig, I believe we gave you a couple of the presentation. 642 00:58:31,000 --> 00:58:31,960 It was very detailed. 643 00:58:32,180 --> 00:58:37,340 We did go for a proposed schedule, and we went through some examples. 644 00:58:39,840 --> 00:58:46,700 By feedback being positive, I think overall they appreciated the direction that the city was going 645 00:58:46,700 --> 00:58:52,240 and how the city has been very open to listening to them, bringing them into the process. 646 00:58:54,040 --> 00:58:58,820 They certainly appeared to me, and of course, Council Member Clay, and Council Member 647 00:58:58,820 --> 00:59:04,640 Jordan participated in these roundtables, it appears that they did appreciate a lot of the 648 00:59:04,640 --> 00:59:08,500 work that the city has done and the direction that we're going in general. 649 00:59:08,960 --> 00:59:14,880 Now, specifically to the increases, they understood the increases, they understood the 650 00:59:14,880 --> 00:59:16,280 be seen for the increases, 651 00:59:19,940 --> 00:59:24,100 but they were all very positive, and it was a very good group 652 00:59:24,100 --> 00:59:25,580 to work with. 653 00:59:25,960 --> 00:59:26,460 It was mayor. 654 00:59:27,420 --> 00:59:33,320 The Council member led with my experience in the round table that I sat in on was that 655 00:59:33,320 --> 00:59:37,160 people knew that there would be potential increases coming, and I think they were sealed 656 00:59:37,160 --> 00:59:39,440 for a lot worse than what they saw. 657 00:59:40,360 --> 00:59:44,660 They anticipated it being more than what it was, and I think there was great appreciation 658 00:59:44,660 --> 00:59:51,160 especially on the discussion about the commercial and narrowing the definitions on commercial 659 00:59:51,160 --> 00:59:57,940 and office a little bit to help out with that. I kind of went into it expecting a lot more 660 00:59:57,940 --> 00:59:59,680 confrontation than there was. 661 01:00:04,060 --> 01:00:31,180 I think another important part of that discussion that came up in the two round tables that I was in is that the city's been pretty consistently in favor of making sure that we get our impact fees based on the reality of the situation in front of us in terms of capital improvement needs and also the reality of what generates those needs. 662 01:00:31,180 --> 01:00:37,600 And that if we could do that internally, then we'd be in a better position to ask our partners, 663 01:00:37,760 --> 01:00:40,540 specifically, ASHD, to do the same kind of work. 664 01:00:41,220 --> 01:00:47,240 And so I think the developers that were in the round tables, I was really appreciated the fact 665 01:00:47,240 --> 01:00:52,840 that we were trying to go after this very transparently and very openly, so that we could 666 01:00:52,840 --> 01:01:00,440 align the impact trees with stated policies and values that we have, and so that we could be 667 01:01:00,440 --> 01:01:06,820 a better position to perhaps ask our partners to do the same thing. 668 01:01:07,140 --> 01:01:12,940 Mr. Mayor. So you'll be able to, you're going to shoot us those, right, and, like, 669 01:01:12,940 --> 01:01:18,300 see those. And I, you know, I'm going back to Councillor member Ludwig's comment as well. 670 01:01:19,320 --> 01:01:25,340 I would have guessed that biggest pushback would be on a commercial noncommercial, and it sounds like it was. 671 01:01:25,340 --> 01:01:55,320 I mean, where the most conversation occurred is related to item number one, which to me out of these, all of them are important, but number one in particular, and I wanted to make sure I understood, so the idea here would be to go forward with defining what these categories might be for commercial and phase those in over, so wait, hold off on that section of the impact fee. 672 01:01:55,340 --> 01:01:59,900 until they have been defined or, and then do it then or. 673 01:02:00,800 --> 01:02:03,200 Great question, there are two options. 674 01:02:04,020 --> 01:02:11,340 And certainly the option that I had in mind was bringing a phased 675 01:02:11,900 --> 01:02:17,420 implementation forward with the industrial and the non-industrial category, 676 01:02:17,420 --> 01:02:29,300 But because it will take possibly two to three years to refine that non-industrial or that commercial category and a line of the data accordingly, 677 01:02:30,280 --> 01:02:37,720 that we would work on that while we're implementing at least the industrial and the commercial categories and those fees, 678 01:02:37,720 --> 01:02:49,700 rather than the alternative of waiting probably several years before we get to refine commercial 679 01:02:49,700 --> 01:02:50,240 categories. 680 01:02:52,740 --> 01:02:53,860 Mr. Graham. 681 01:02:54,360 --> 01:03:00,540 I guess one final clarification on that, then as we go through this sort of phased 682 01:03:00,540 --> 01:03:08,500 in approach, given that we know that there's more complexity in understanding the 683 01:03:08,500 --> 01:03:17,480 structure will, will the fees that we impose in originally be reflect that complexity 684 01:03:17,480 --> 01:03:23,360 and maybe be not quite the either or split that we have today that we are proposing? 685 01:03:25,460 --> 01:03:29,220 Or were you proposing implementing the fees as we presented them? 686 01:03:29,660 --> 01:03:34,080 Mayor Council Member, I was proposing implementing the fees as presented. 687 01:03:34,860 --> 01:03:36,420 but phased. 688 01:03:38,680 --> 01:03:44,840 We might want to do a little bit more research on whether or not there's some 689 01:03:44,840 --> 01:03:49,180 in between that would reflect if it's coming in complexities. Okay, potentially. 690 01:03:55,080 --> 01:03:55,360 Okay, 691 01:03:55,480 --> 01:04:01,100 it counts, remember? I'm going to give you these and then we'll just move forward with the process 692 01:04:01,100 --> 01:04:03,320 and the next steps are outlined in your memo. 693 01:04:05,480 --> 01:04:07,740 Okay, thank you. Well, we take five and four 694 01:04:07,740 --> 01:04:09,700 head into the next item. 695 01:07:26,110 --> 01:07:33,190 We are back the riveting topic of curbside organic. It's a definition 696 01:07:33,190 --> 01:07:40,810 of a slow news and we could seem to be. Thank you all for coming and turn it over to 697 01:07:40,810 --> 01:07:46,250 you folks, curb it to point all. Thank you, Mr. Mayor Good afternoon, Mayor Council members. 698 01:07:46,770 --> 01:07:51,450 With me today, I have Catherine Shoutini, our Solid Waste Program Manager and Heather Buchanan 699 01:07:51,450 --> 01:07:54,250 is our administration manager for public works. 700 01:07:54,990 --> 01:07:56,510 And thanks again for letting us come in and talk 701 01:07:56,510 --> 01:07:59,570 about the proposed residential curbside organic program. 702 01:08:00,250 --> 01:08:01,630 So today we're going to give you some background 703 01:08:01,630 --> 01:08:04,230 on the program, kind of where the impetus 704 01:08:04,230 --> 01:08:06,450 for the idea came from. 705 01:08:06,630 --> 01:08:08,710 Catherine's going to give you an overview of the actual program 706 01:08:08,710 --> 01:08:11,110 specifics, giving in to cart sizes 707 01:08:11,710 --> 01:08:13,310 and what we'll be collecting, et cetera. 708 01:08:13,910 --> 01:08:15,590 We'll turn it over to Heather and she'll cover the program 709 01:08:15,590 --> 01:08:18,030 funding piece and then I'll close it with a schedule 710 01:08:18,030 --> 01:08:20,110 and then we'll stand for questions that certainly throughout 711 01:08:20,110 --> 01:08:22,110 will be available for questions. 712 01:08:23,570 --> 01:08:27,150 So by way of background, in 2013, a city staff reviewed 713 01:08:27,150 --> 01:08:29,430 and updated the city's solid waste strategic plan. 714 01:08:29,930 --> 01:08:33,310 And in that plan, there were goals that were related to 715 01:08:33,310 --> 01:08:34,930 curve side organics that was a recognition 716 01:08:34,930 --> 01:08:37,710 that we had a firm out of our waste dream related 717 01:08:37,710 --> 01:08:38,710 to organic material. 718 01:08:39,130 --> 01:08:41,410 So food waste that comes from food scraps, 719 01:08:41,930 --> 01:08:44,750 and then grass clippings, what do you do 720 01:08:44,750 --> 01:08:46,650 breathe it comes from landscaping? 721 01:08:47,690 --> 01:08:50,090 And so one of the goals that we had in that program 722 01:08:50,090 --> 01:08:55,770 the update of the Strategic Plan was to reduce our per capita waste generation, and then 723 01:08:55,770 --> 01:09:00,210 focusing on resource recovery, really trying to figure out how could we recover the resources 724 01:09:00,210 --> 01:09:04,330 that we knew were in some of that waste region that was going to the landfill, and specifically 725 01:09:04,330 --> 01:09:08,190 Curbsat Organics, how could we promote the highest value of that recovered material? 726 01:09:10,010 --> 01:09:15,210 In subsequent to that update in 2014, Aida County commissioned a waste stream analysis with 727 01:09:15,210 --> 01:09:21,610 two primary objectives. One was to provide data on the composition and quantity of what was actually going 728 01:09:21,610 --> 01:09:26,490 to the landfill and then more importantly for us and kind of what we're taking action on is to provide 729 01:09:26,490 --> 01:09:30,550 data that can be used to plan future programs. I'm going to show you some of the information 730 01:09:30,550 --> 01:09:36,870 that came from that waste stream analysis. So this is a look at for all of eight accounting. This is the 731 01:09:36,870 --> 01:09:41,890 waste stream breakdown for all of the trash that goes to the eight accounting landfill. So this would 732 01:09:41,890 --> 01:09:46,430 include both residential and commercial and industrial for that matter. 733 01:09:46,590 --> 01:09:50,770 So this is a breakout of all the ways that goes to the landfill and I draw your attention 734 01:09:50,770 --> 01:09:52,430 to the lower right-hand corner here. 735 01:09:52,450 --> 01:09:58,350 This is the percent of organics that goes to the landfill from that complete waste stream. 736 01:09:58,670 --> 01:10:02,930 It's about 30 percent of the landfill is comprised of organics that comes and is delivered to 737 01:10:02,930 --> 01:10:03,510 the landfill. 738 01:10:04,490 --> 01:10:04,870 This way. 739 01:10:06,310 --> 01:10:07,170 Question on that. 740 01:10:07,530 --> 01:10:11,850 So up in the paper, there's the compostable paper that looks like it's maybe 3.8 percent 741 01:10:11,850 --> 01:10:17,370 would that also be part of the curbside composting or now? 742 01:10:17,970 --> 01:10:21,950 Mr. Mayor, council member, I think what we're going to limit it to is food scraps and we'll 743 01:10:21,950 --> 01:10:24,870 talk about we actually have a slide that talks about what we're going to accept and we're 744 01:10:24,870 --> 01:10:29,590 limiting it to food scraps and then yard debris and I defer to any if there's a kind of a different 745 01:10:29,590 --> 01:10:31,190 take on that. 746 01:10:31,190 --> 01:10:31,950 I think. 747 01:10:33,750 --> 01:10:37,710 But then we kind of analyze and slice and dice the information in a little more detailed 748 01:10:37,710 --> 01:10:44,070 fashion. We find that specific to single-family residential homes in the city of Boise, there's 749 01:10:44,070 --> 01:10:49,210 kind of a different break out of what we see going to the landfill. And in fact, almost 46% of 750 01:10:49,210 --> 01:10:54,530 the trash that goes to the landfill from single-family residential in the city of Boise is comprised 751 01:10:54,530 --> 01:11:00,070 of organics. And so when staff, we saw this information, there's an opportunity there to potentially 752 01:11:00,070 --> 01:11:04,370 beneficiously reuse those organics that are going to landfill. I'll just all kinds of benefits 753 01:11:04,370 --> 01:11:07,410 that come from reducing the attacks that are going to the landfill. 754 01:11:08,250 --> 01:11:13,310 And so out of this information, we decided that if we wanted to go ahead and try to achieve 755 01:11:13,310 --> 01:11:19,430 some of those goals that were identified in the 2013 updated Southeast or TG plan, and in 756 01:11:19,430 --> 01:11:23,270 order to divert, recycle over 40% of voices residential, organic waste, we're going to 757 01:11:23,270 --> 01:11:24,070 require two things. 758 01:11:24,770 --> 01:11:28,630 One would be the actual composting facility, and the second would be the ability to collect 759 01:11:28,630 --> 01:11:31,290 and haul the organic materials to take it to the composting facility. 760 01:11:32,010 --> 01:11:36,690 So, in 2014, late 2014, we started discussions with the public services, our franchise 761 01:11:36,690 --> 01:11:41,890 Haller, just to start the conversation on what would this take to achieve those top two 762 01:11:41,890 --> 01:11:46,350 bullets there, actual building accomplishing facility, and what would be the financial capital 763 01:11:46,350 --> 01:11:51,270 impacts of the ability to collect and haul the organic material from just residential 764 01:11:51,270 --> 01:11:52,350 kerbset or ganks. 765 01:11:53,710 --> 01:11:59,570 And so, in 2015, Republic came back with a cost estimate, really was a performance that they 766 01:11:59,570 --> 01:12:04,190 outside of GANX program. Again, just emphasizing this is residential only. And based on that 767 01:12:04,190 --> 01:12:09,610 information we got back from public, it seemed apparent to a staff that this was worth pursuing 768 01:12:09,610 --> 01:12:15,270 further, that the cost implications that we'll get into and much more detail later seem to be 769 01:12:15,270 --> 01:12:20,090 worth going further and pursuing, if you see if we could pull this off, the curves out of GANX program. 770 01:12:21,950 --> 01:12:29,550 So at that point, about two years ago, eight of county formed what's referred to as the 771 01:12:29,550 --> 01:12:37,730 trash to the landfill, in addition, there are folks who are kind of citizens that large and other folks that may have an interest in kind of trash issues. 772 01:12:38,870 --> 01:12:50,910 And so at one point about early 2015, we floated the idea to the Solid Waste Advisory Committee and the potential for initially we thought what if we put the composting facility at the 80 county landfill. 773 01:12:51,450 --> 01:12:56,890 And based on feedback that we got from the citizens, there's a citizen member on that committee. 774 01:12:57,570 --> 01:13:00,210 And then also the county, there was a lot of concern about voters. 775 01:13:00,950 --> 01:13:05,310 The county had worked very hard to try to address the other issues at the county landfill. 776 01:13:05,950 --> 01:13:10,250 And they were concerned about maybe this causing issues related to voter. 777 01:13:10,470 --> 01:13:14,590 We're very confident that a well-operated composting facility does not have voters. 778 01:13:14,590 --> 01:13:20,030 in fact we visited one out in Corvallis, that is very well operated and didn't have any 779 01:13:20,030 --> 01:13:20,250 orders. 780 01:13:20,910 --> 01:13:25,270 But appreciating the concern, we decided what, we went back to Republic and asked, what happens 781 01:13:25,270 --> 01:13:30,470 if we would pivot and potentially locate the composting facility at our 20 miles south 782 01:13:30,470 --> 01:13:32,090 farm, what are the consequences of that? 783 01:13:32,670 --> 01:13:35,310 And they were almost the menimists, they were very minor. 784 01:13:35,510 --> 01:13:40,890 So we decided maybe it's just best, in order not to kind of have to address that over issue 785 01:13:40,890 --> 01:13:43,770 in an area that has a lot of citizens surrounding landfill. 786 01:13:43,770 --> 01:13:48,270 Maybe we pivot and go down to our 20 miles south farm where we have available acreage. 787 01:13:48,790 --> 01:13:49,290 This may. 788 01:13:50,590 --> 01:13:53,130 I have a question on the location piece. 789 01:13:53,390 --> 01:13:57,890 I appreciate that you guys are trying to be sensitive about the concerns and I think that's really wise. 790 01:13:58,850 --> 01:14:05,110 I wonder if in any of your conversations did you look at all of the land that we own out near the airport, 791 01:14:05,410 --> 01:14:11,990 which seems to be a lot closer than the 20 miles south farm and talked to us about that analysis a little bit, please? 792 01:14:11,990 --> 01:14:19,130 Mr. Mayor Counselor, Mr. Jordan, but the level of analysis wasn't detailed to a point 793 01:14:19,130 --> 01:14:21,850 where we looked at specific parcels that we own as a city. 794 01:14:22,550 --> 01:14:27,050 I think it jumped out to us that we already had the farm composting fit well with that 795 01:14:27,050 --> 01:14:28,830 operation, a farming operation. 796 01:14:29,610 --> 01:14:35,910 There is potential for birds, other type of wildlife that probably wouldn't be very conducive 797 01:14:35,910 --> 01:14:36,930 with an airport environment. 798 01:14:37,430 --> 01:14:41,890 And so that's where we kind of decided probably want to go south and be in an area where we're 799 01:14:41,890 --> 01:14:45,890 not really surrounded by any neighbors and fit well with what we had at the farm. 800 01:14:50,710 --> 01:14:55,750 Okay, with that I'll turn it over to Katherine and she's going to get into some details on the actual program itself. 801 01:14:56,470 --> 01:14:59,970 So some of the things that we've looked at are kind of the best practices around the country. 802 01:15:09,100 --> 01:15:21,700 We want to focus first on residential customers only, get our feet wet, get that going and do it very well. It will be curbside collection with the specialty mark to 95 gallon carts. 803 01:15:21,700 --> 01:15:26,080 Republic is willing to offer customers the smaller size cards of 48 gallon or 804 01:15:26,080 --> 01:15:31,480 this is 65 gallon so we want to write size folks's service whatever fits your 805 01:15:31,480 --> 01:15:34,780 situation the best and we know that we're going to have customers with unique 806 01:15:34,780 --> 01:15:38,620 situations and we want to work with them to provide the right size service for 807 01:15:38,620 --> 01:15:43,260 their needs. The curbsite collection will be weekly and it will be year 808 01:15:43,260 --> 01:15:46,760 around because we will be able to collect all of the food scraps as well as 809 01:15:46,760 --> 01:15:51,480 yard waste and we have found really with our leaf collection and Christmas tree 810 01:15:51,480 --> 01:15:53,760 collection program over the last few years. 811 01:15:53,820 --> 01:15:56,020 Mother Nature Drops leaves is early September 812 01:15:56,020 --> 01:15:57,440 and is latest January. 813 01:15:58,040 --> 01:16:00,680 So we know that we have a lot of materials that are being 814 01:16:00,680 --> 01:16:03,940 landfill or held on to impact yards that throughout the year 815 01:16:03,940 --> 01:16:06,380 that we could be taking in a curbside program. 816 01:16:06,980 --> 01:16:09,620 Mr. Mayor, a quick question on that. 817 01:16:09,620 --> 01:16:12,980 I turn on the different size with that result 818 01:16:12,980 --> 01:16:17,320 in a different cost, so less if you have a smaller one. 819 01:16:18,240 --> 01:16:20,760 Mr. Mayor, councilmember, there is no differential 820 01:16:20,760 --> 01:16:25,760 the size of the car is just what will work the best for you. 821 01:16:27,540 --> 01:16:30,220 There's really no way around. 822 01:16:30,840 --> 01:16:32,880 If you have glass recycling, 823 01:16:33,300 --> 01:16:35,870 regular waste and organic shit get poor. 824 01:16:36,600 --> 01:16:38,020 Can there's no way around that? 825 01:16:38,200 --> 01:16:38,600 Is there a meaning? 826 01:16:40,400 --> 01:16:41,760 They don't do it, do it. 827 01:16:43,880 --> 01:16:45,480 Reset the client again. 828 01:16:46,000 --> 01:16:48,320 Mr. Mayor, there are communities that do that. 829 01:16:48,320 --> 01:16:53,860 However, it oftentimes means a modification to the trucks in order to provide that kind 830 01:16:53,860 --> 01:16:54,140 of service. 831 01:16:54,340 --> 01:16:56,880 So you spend it one way or you've kind of spend it in another. 832 01:16:57,960 --> 01:16:59,220 And that's why we want to work with customers. 833 01:16:59,520 --> 01:17:03,420 Ultimately, you know, the goal is to reduce the amount of trash folks are setting out. 834 01:17:03,700 --> 01:17:07,940 You know, that's our long-term goal is the less trash and the more that's diverted or reduced. 835 01:17:08,620 --> 01:17:12,920 And so hopefully customers can kind of find that right mix of services for their needs. 836 01:17:16,920 --> 01:17:17,360 Okay. 837 01:17:17,360 --> 01:17:23,240 that we have right now. Are they in three sizes two? Mr. Mayor Council member, yes, we offer 838 01:17:23,240 --> 01:17:27,940 three sizes in trash, recycling and now in the composting. So it's the smallest garbage 839 01:17:27,940 --> 01:17:35,420 can right now, the same size as the glass. Mr. Mayor, no, it's actually the recycling for glass 840 01:17:35,420 --> 01:17:39,820 is a 65 gallon cart that's the middle size. Oh, so you can go smaller. You can't go 841 01:17:39,820 --> 01:17:44,620 Okay, so then this mayor. I actually need to get smaller. I thought we had this moan. 842 01:17:45,980 --> 01:17:51,660 So my next question is related to that. So I know you'll get to rates shortly. 843 01:17:51,720 --> 01:17:57,660 But right now I have a smaller garbage can. So do I get a rebate or something back monthly 844 01:17:57,660 --> 01:18:05,720 for using that smaller garbage can? Mr. Mayor council member. Yes, you do get a reduced rate for using a 65 or 48 gallon trash cart. 845 01:18:05,720 --> 01:18:08,520 is at the same rate for both the 65 and the 48. 846 01:18:08,980 --> 01:18:10,620 And what is that? 847 01:18:10,920 --> 01:18:13,120 It's about a dollar last a month. 848 01:18:14,460 --> 01:18:14,940 All right. 849 01:18:15,060 --> 01:18:15,860 Can these difference? 850 01:18:16,320 --> 01:18:17,020 Wait a minute. 851 01:18:17,080 --> 01:18:18,440 This target is 852 01:18:21,960 --> 01:18:22,120 built. 853 01:18:22,240 --> 01:18:25,960 It literally goes to there's no one who goes to South America. 854 01:18:31,070 --> 01:18:32,850 Mr. Mayor, council member, absolutely. 855 01:18:33,110 --> 01:18:33,950 We want those leaves. 856 01:18:34,190 --> 01:18:37,710 And you can put them out any time you generate them. 857 01:18:37,930 --> 01:18:38,810 Good for you, teacher. 858 01:18:38,970 --> 01:18:41,210 Big tree that dumps a lot all at once. 859 01:18:41,210 --> 01:18:48,830 would we allow stickers like we do with trash cans for extra organic material pick up on those 860 01:18:48,830 --> 01:18:54,390 on those specific what maybe once a year on those days when you have those. Mr. Mayor, 861 01:18:54,410 --> 01:18:59,810 councilmember, we will allow people to continue to use during that kind of leaf collection period, 862 01:18:59,890 --> 01:19:04,390 the paper bags, because we know they work really well. Okay. If you do have a tree that drops suddenly, 863 01:19:04,390 --> 01:19:09,190 And we'll take them as long as you're part of the weekly pickup. 864 01:19:11,010 --> 01:19:17,590 Secondly, if I could to the size, I've done just a quick look around in the country. 865 01:19:18,190 --> 01:19:22,810 And in terms of the cards that seem to work with our, with the trucks, 866 01:19:22,950 --> 01:19:26,130 Republicans, and you guys can certainly correct me if I'm wrong. 867 01:19:26,310 --> 01:19:31,590 It appears that if there's a 35 gallon size and not just a 48 gallon. 868 01:19:31,590 --> 01:19:39,530 And I wonder if, yeah, they're very skinny and I wonder if, especially, you know, in some instances, 869 01:19:40,850 --> 01:19:46,050 a lot of folks, we, for instance, have the 65 gallon trash cart only for yard waste. 870 01:19:46,790 --> 01:19:49,830 We don't come close to needing that for trash. 871 01:19:49,890 --> 01:19:55,670 I wonder if, as part of that, this we could explore having that even smaller size for trash. 872 01:19:55,670 --> 01:19:58,750 And if you go to that, have an extra reduction 873 01:19:59,250 --> 01:20:01,470 for taking that very small size and trash. 874 01:20:01,950 --> 01:20:05,290 Mr. Mayor, Councilmember, when we evaluated the 875 01:20:05,290 --> 01:20:07,790 curbate program in the beginning, we did look at the 876 01:20:07,790 --> 01:20:09,670 small size cards of 35 gallon cards. 877 01:20:09,810 --> 01:20:12,430 Most communities that we talked to that had those 878 01:20:12,430 --> 01:20:14,410 recommended that we not use them. 879 01:20:14,410 --> 01:20:17,170 And the biggest issue was it can be very hard 880 01:20:17,170 --> 01:20:19,670 particularly in the winter months to get the trash 881 01:20:19,670 --> 01:20:20,550 out of those cards. 882 01:20:20,550 --> 01:20:23,790 It tends to pack in the bottom and it's pretty hard to get 883 01:20:24,410 --> 01:20:28,410 solid trash out of the bottom of those cards they also suggest pizza boxes are a nightmare 884 01:20:28,410 --> 01:20:33,470 getting out of those cards. So that's why we didn't go with them originally. We can 885 01:20:33,470 --> 01:20:39,530 re-look at that and see if we want to make those available. Another option for folks is we 886 01:20:39,530 --> 01:20:44,650 may want to set up a structure or a rate structure over time that would incentivize people to 887 01:20:44,650 --> 01:20:48,570 set out their trash less frequently. So if you don't fill in your card every week, set it 888 01:20:48,570 --> 01:20:52,750 out every other week or maybe once a month and we come up with a system or a rate structure 889 01:20:52,750 --> 01:20:55,150 that would incentivize people to really reduce 890 01:20:55,150 --> 01:20:57,070 their amount of pressure that they're setting up. 891 01:20:57,450 --> 01:21:00,250 The biggest cost is driving down the street 892 01:21:00,250 --> 01:21:02,110 and emptying that container. 893 01:21:03,310 --> 01:21:05,190 So I think that there's lots of opportunities 894 01:21:05,190 --> 01:21:08,910 with this program to work towards the future of reducing 895 01:21:08,910 --> 01:21:13,090 the waste we're producing and providing pay as you throw 896 01:21:13,090 --> 01:21:16,170 or an opportunity to really reward people 897 01:21:16,170 --> 01:21:18,210 who reduce their amount of pressure that we now. 898 01:21:19,050 --> 01:21:21,830 This man just had, I think, anecdotally the feedback 899 01:21:21,830 --> 01:21:24,510 that we've gotten from citizens who we've talked to. 900 01:21:24,670 --> 01:21:26,330 I think that's probably the primary concern 901 01:21:26,330 --> 01:21:28,650 is I've got now four cards or three cards. 902 01:21:28,870 --> 01:21:31,230 And so we're going to try to be very sensitive to that 903 01:21:31,230 --> 01:21:33,050 and try to develop options that will help 904 01:21:33,050 --> 01:21:34,610 address that concern that's definitely the one 905 01:21:34,610 --> 01:21:35,850 that probably popping up in the most. 906 01:21:36,090 --> 01:21:38,910 And oh, if I could, Mr. Mayor, my son lives in Seattle 907 01:21:38,910 --> 01:21:41,130 and he doesn't, his trash is not a cart. 908 01:21:41,290 --> 01:21:44,550 His trash is really a very small bin that they don't physically. 909 01:21:49,100 --> 01:21:51,760 The materials that we'll be collecting are kitchen scraps 910 01:21:51,760 --> 01:21:54,480 in yard waste and I'm glad that we heard the conversation 911 01:21:54,480 --> 01:21:59,260 about the compostable paper products. Obviously, a small amount of compostable paper products is not 912 01:21:59,260 --> 01:22:03,700 going to be a problem. Folks want to put out the leaf bags. We can deal with those. In the 913 01:22:03,700 --> 01:22:07,660 beginning, I don't know that we would want to take a lot of compostable paper products, but it is 914 01:22:07,660 --> 01:22:12,080 something that we will be working through. Leaves and Christmas trees, as we mentioned, bundle 915 01:22:12,080 --> 01:22:16,180 branches, all those branches that come down in the middle of the year that you want to get rid of. 916 01:22:16,180 --> 01:22:21,580 We'll be able to take care of those. And it is unlimited collection and customers can rent extra 917 01:22:21,580 --> 01:22:26,540 If you have a large yard, I have a third of an acre with a lot of plant material because I like to grow things. 918 01:22:27,220 --> 01:22:29,200 I may be the kind of person who wants two carts. 919 01:22:29,940 --> 01:22:33,960 There may be lots of folks out there that have acreages or property with a lot of trees. 920 01:22:34,100 --> 01:22:37,300 They may want additional carts, and we're going to make those available for folks. 921 01:22:39,040 --> 01:22:43,700 The composting facility will be located at the 20 mile south farm site, a steep mentioned earlier. 922 01:22:43,700 --> 01:22:54,080 And we did take a look, you know, at least in a cursory level at other properties the city had, and because of the FAA rules for bird attractance, composting is not recommended near airports. 923 01:22:55,380 --> 01:23:01,720 This is an ideal site even though it's further out of town and it is a bit of a drive, but it is an ideal site from an operational perspective. 924 01:23:01,880 --> 01:23:06,240 There's water there, there's good transportation system there, we can access the site very easily. 925 01:23:06,240 --> 01:23:10,540 Republic services will develop and operate the site, the city will own it. 926 01:23:11,340 --> 01:23:16,420 They expect to be able to create finished compost within about 100 days from start to finish. 927 01:23:17,040 --> 01:23:19,840 We will own the city, we'll own the finished product. 928 01:23:20,820 --> 01:23:24,840 We built into kind of our rate structure that about 50% would be sold. 929 01:23:25,340 --> 01:23:32,200 50% would be available to put on city properties, golf courses, parks, public lands where we might need it. 930 01:23:32,200 --> 01:23:37,080 And then we would also make some of that material available to the public at no charge. 931 01:23:38,000 --> 01:23:41,140 The program would be launched some time in the spring of next year. 932 01:23:41,180 --> 01:23:42,220 My goal is March. 933 01:23:43,160 --> 01:23:47,920 We typically see our trash volumes got 30 to 40 percent in March to April. 934 01:23:48,140 --> 01:23:52,300 So I'd kind of like to have it start about the time we're starting to see that volume increase. 935 01:23:52,740 --> 01:23:58,420 But a lot of it will have to be dependent upon getting the trucks in the equipment here in time to launch it. 936 01:23:58,420 --> 01:23:59,280 Next spring. 937 01:23:59,600 --> 01:24:01,140 Mr. Mayor. 938 01:24:01,460 --> 01:24:07,060 Katherine, on the 50% so that's one part that well I understand being worked into the 939 01:24:07,060 --> 01:24:13,000 rate structure sounds like that was an important component of that. 940 01:24:13,440 --> 01:24:20,940 I have difficulty increasing rates on one hand and then not offering the product to our citizens 941 01:24:21,520 --> 01:24:22,600 on the other. 942 01:24:22,600 --> 01:24:35,960 And while you suggest possibly recommended giving some of it, I like the concept of giving certainly to our parks. 943 01:24:36,040 --> 01:24:44,940 That makes sense that reduces costs to our citizens, and it's a great use, but whatever's left, first offering that, 944 01:24:44,940 --> 01:24:51,040 And, you know, at least a residential level free of charge, because the residents were other 945 01:24:51,040 --> 01:24:56,240 ones at large-scale companies coming in and taking it all, but small residential 946 01:24:56,240 --> 01:25:00,620 were coming, filling up their truck, taking it and putting it on their yard. 947 01:25:00,980 --> 01:25:07,100 I love that concept, and what does that do to the race structure if we offer it all of 948 01:25:07,100 --> 01:25:08,660 it, to the public for free? 949 01:25:10,400 --> 01:25:14,920 Mr. Mayor, council member, one of the things that we did look at is where other communities 950 01:25:14,920 --> 01:25:20,100 have done similar programs, oftentimes they have found that they produce more compost than 951 01:25:20,100 --> 01:25:27,280 they can actually give away. So they're sort of that other side of the point. And then 952 01:25:27,280 --> 01:25:32,980 I'll let Heather talk about the amount of revenue that we expected from that. 953 01:25:33,580 --> 01:25:39,920 May I count some member? In our program our will include about $64,000 of revenue from the 954 01:25:39,920 --> 01:25:46,720 So it's actually a pretty small amount, if we weren't to sell, it wouldn't make, we figured 955 01:25:46,720 --> 01:25:51,620 it would per customer per month, it's about a seven-cent difference, so it's not huge enough. 956 01:25:52,420 --> 01:25:54,880 Okay, so just a little quick follow up on that, Mr. Mayor. 957 01:25:55,560 --> 01:26:00,560 I think it'd be great to be able to give as much as we could. 958 01:26:00,700 --> 01:26:08,540 I mean, use as much as a city and then give as much as we could and sell the rest because we don't want it to. 959 01:26:08,540 --> 01:26:17,860 we have to get rid of it. But if there are citizens there ready to pick it up, give it. 960 01:26:18,300 --> 01:26:26,620 I think that's a great perk of this program. And it goes to the concerns of those that are already 961 01:26:27,600 --> 01:26:33,760 composting. That concerns still exist, so I'm to agree, but it helps if they know they're going to get as much 962 01:26:33,760 --> 01:26:38,320 they can take, and then we sell the rest, especially knowing it's a small component of the feed. 963 01:26:39,200 --> 01:26:42,900 So Mr. Man, Council Member, I appreciate the comment, and I think one of the things we actually talked about, 964 01:26:43,400 --> 01:26:48,500 and I haven't worked out all the logistics of this yet, but from the farm, we'd be able to back 965 01:26:48,500 --> 01:26:52,780 call it to the city. So we have trucks that deliver stuff to the farm, and then head back to the 966 01:26:52,780 --> 01:26:55,620 tree and plants. We're trying to work out some of the details, but we might be able to back 967 01:26:55,620 --> 01:27:00,160 call it to say a central location like the voici water shatter, and then make it available for free 968 01:27:00,160 --> 01:27:03,520 and so appreciate the comment. We'll look into it. 969 01:27:05,250 --> 01:27:06,410 We wanted to give you some ideas. 970 01:27:06,950 --> 01:27:07,870 Yeah, let's go ahead. 971 01:27:08,550 --> 01:27:11,290 Katherine, or whoever's doing the financial analysis this, 972 01:27:11,430 --> 01:27:12,630 I don't think I saw a performer. 973 01:27:12,990 --> 01:27:14,710 So I have some questions along those lines, 974 01:27:15,210 --> 01:27:19,170 because at first blush, I'm somewhat opposed to an increase in fees 975 01:27:21,270 --> 01:27:26,630 or the cost of this other than the cost of the cart. 976 01:27:27,290 --> 01:27:30,590 At least at this point, I think this is something that is very important. 977 01:27:30,590 --> 01:27:36,570 all, I think, encourage conservation. But when you say, you've done a per form, a couple 978 01:27:36,570 --> 01:27:42,530 of questions for you, as I'd like to know how you got to $64,000 on the 20 mile farm retail 979 01:27:42,530 --> 01:27:48,370 side, that surprises me because I would pick that number of these significantly higher, but 980 01:27:48,370 --> 01:27:55,550 I don't know. And then on the front side, the reduced landfill costs that would save the city 981 01:27:55,550 --> 01:28:02,350 the taxpayers on the front end of the back end, I really think there needs to be a significant 982 01:28:02,350 --> 01:28:07,590 analysis to determine whether or not there needs to be a fee increase. I'm not faulting 983 01:28:07,590 --> 01:28:11,210 a republic, they're entitled to make a profit, and that's a whole other animal I'm not talking 984 01:28:11,210 --> 01:28:20,450 about right now, but to really determine how this sort of an innovative and creative and something 985 01:28:20,450 --> 01:28:30,330 that we should encourage effort could be done in such a way that the user, which I'm 986 01:28:30,330 --> 01:28:35,410 support voluntary use at this point in time, but the user of this service might not have 987 01:28:35,410 --> 01:28:39,310 a fee because of the front and back end savings or revenue. 988 01:28:40,110 --> 01:28:46,370 So I was surprised when you got to 64,000, might not so sharp pencil had substantial revenue. 989 01:28:47,650 --> 01:28:53,790 Mr. Mayor, Councillor, fair question, I think on the 64,000 piece we're trying to be somewhat 990 01:28:53,790 --> 01:28:58,990 conservative because we take that, what we take on the revenue side for selling compost, 991 01:28:59,210 --> 01:29:03,770 we use that to reduce rate impacts to citizens. So we're trying to be somewhat conservative 992 01:29:03,770 --> 01:29:07,230 if that market wasn't there and we had to come back for another rate increase. We're trying 993 01:29:07,230 --> 01:29:16,350 to be conservative on that front. And then as far as the larger cost of the program, one of 994 01:29:16,350 --> 01:29:22,230 value. There's certainly airspace at the landfill, significant savings that will see by not using 995 01:29:22,230 --> 01:29:27,210 the landfill. So we had an estimate about five to six dollars per cubic yard of airspace 996 01:29:27,210 --> 01:29:32,770 that it takes to develop a landfill. And so when we think about the capital costs on the on the 997 01:29:32,770 --> 01:29:38,250 on the on the front side of a composting program, we think we'd be able to recover those costs 998 01:29:38,250 --> 01:29:46,330 and maybe a 25 to 30 year period on a net present value. So from a financial standpoint, on a 999 01:29:46,330 --> 01:29:53,430 that present value calc, and then on the ONM side, you'll see that we'll have a slide here 1000 01:29:53,430 --> 01:29:56,170 that talks about the reimbursement rate to Republic Services. 1001 01:29:57,130 --> 01:29:59,970 That rate gets offset by the... 1002 01:30:00,000 --> 01:30:09,280 Saving the landfill savings and the limited revenue will see on the composting sales. You'll see here in a second how that breaks out. Hopefully that'll help a little bit. 1003 01:30:09,700 --> 01:30:18,700 So to just orient you to where we're located. The 20 miles south farm site is really 20 miles south of the west voice of wastewater treatment plant off of the end of Cloverdale Road. 1004 01:30:19,260 --> 01:30:25,700 Now, we have a location of about 8 to 10 acres on that site that's not really farmable land, 1005 01:30:25,720 --> 01:30:28,500 but it would be absolutely perfect for composting facility. 1006 01:30:28,880 --> 01:30:30,900 And so we can designate that. 1007 01:30:31,540 --> 01:30:33,480 We have the road to, we have water available. 1008 01:30:34,600 --> 01:30:39,700 And because it's within the farming operation, we have the opportunity to permit the facility 1009 01:30:39,700 --> 01:30:40,800 in that location. 1010 01:30:45,330 --> 01:30:46,790 So, you need to go from here. 1011 01:30:47,610 --> 01:30:48,830 Okay, I get this one. 1012 01:30:48,830 --> 01:30:52,010 All right, so our investment, getting into our money. 1013 01:30:52,450 --> 01:30:54,170 Republic services will need to purchase 1014 01:30:54,170 --> 01:30:58,210 15 new, compressed natural gas collection trucks for the program. 1015 01:30:59,030 --> 01:31:00,770 We have to purchase the composting equipment. 1016 01:31:00,770 --> 01:31:02,010 It is a wind road turner. 1017 01:31:02,090 --> 01:31:05,150 One of those previous pictures you saw the big piece 1018 01:31:05,150 --> 01:31:06,990 of equipment that actually would go through 1019 01:31:06,990 --> 01:31:09,290 and turn the rows very frequently. 1020 01:31:10,350 --> 01:31:15,330 And then 73,000, we have over 73,000 residential customers now. 1021 01:31:15,610 --> 01:31:17,710 73,000 residential carts to be purchased 1022 01:31:17,710 --> 01:31:22,370 and then to develop the compost site, the city will do the siding application that conditional 1023 01:31:22,370 --> 01:31:27,510 use permit with the county. The siding application has to be submitted to DEQ and Central 1024 01:31:27,510 --> 01:31:32,170 District Health within also work with them on the review of the siding application and the 1025 01:31:32,170 --> 01:31:38,110 operating plan, which all have to be permitted. Republic will prepare the operating plan. 1026 01:31:38,470 --> 01:31:42,190 We're going to have to work on this kind of concurrently together with the siding application 1027 01:31:42,750 --> 01:31:45,850 and the city will provide the location and the water for the facility. 1028 01:31:51,380 --> 01:31:57,500 As we discuss in this kind of gets into the performer part of things, our reimbursement 1029 01:31:57,500 --> 01:32:01,740 to Republic Services would we are expecting to be about $5.86. 1030 01:32:03,020 --> 01:32:09,140 So we looked at every way possible to reduce that cost to the customer otherwise it would 1031 01:32:09,140 --> 01:32:10,740 be passed directly through to the customer. 1032 01:32:11,020 --> 01:32:17,400 So as we discussed earlier, we found ways including the Composter Avenue and landfill savings 1033 01:32:17,400 --> 01:32:23,040 to reduce that there are a few other items that we've also included as ways to reduce that 1034 01:32:23,040 --> 01:32:31,940 cost to our customers. So, including those savings, we come out to the result that about 80% 1035 01:32:31,940 --> 01:32:41,280 of our customers would see a $3.40 increase per month. So, the remaining 20% of customers would 1036 01:32:41,280 --> 01:32:48,600 They're increased cost more than $3.40, but that's because they have multiple trash containers. 1037 01:32:50,620 --> 01:32:52,540 And we currently have that in our rate structure already. 1038 01:32:52,780 --> 01:32:56,640 So if you have additional trash service, you automatically pay more for that. 1039 01:32:57,340 --> 01:33:01,480 So we're incorporating into this a participation in rebate of $5 per month. 1040 01:33:01,660 --> 01:33:09,620 If you choose to participate in the composting program, you will offer the trash only cost. 1041 01:33:09,620 --> 01:33:15,720 you would have a participation rate of five dollars. So we're expecting now our customer rate increase 1042 01:33:15,720 --> 01:33:22,680 in effect October 1st or 2016. And as Katherine mentioned the program would start in March, 1043 01:33:23,780 --> 01:33:29,220 so that lead time is so that we can purchase cards, track, equipment and develop the composting site. 1044 01:33:29,220 --> 01:33:30,500 I have a question for you. 1045 01:33:30,660 --> 01:33:30,920 Thanks. 1046 01:33:32,780 --> 01:33:35,520 Is the cost of 340 a month after the rebate? 1047 01:33:37,320 --> 01:33:37,640 Yes. 1048 01:33:38,520 --> 01:33:39,320 Mayor Council member. 1049 01:33:39,640 --> 01:33:40,100 Yes it is. 1050 01:33:40,440 --> 01:33:42,940 So I have a couple of examples in the next slide. 1051 01:33:45,380 --> 01:33:48,480 So this is an example of our 80% of customers. 1052 01:33:48,800 --> 01:33:52,780 So currently 80% of our customers have one trash cart and one recycling cart. 1053 01:33:53,720 --> 01:33:56,860 And so if we add the composting service on to that, 1054 01:33:56,860 --> 01:34:02,900 It will be increased of $3.40, so that'll bring their cost up to $17.77. 1055 01:34:05,580 --> 01:34:12,940 So the next example is one of the scenarios of what the other 20% of our customers can have. 1056 01:34:13,080 --> 01:34:19,200 So in this case, this customer has one recycling cart and three trash carts currently. 1057 01:34:19,360 --> 01:34:20,880 So they have quite a bit of trash service. 1058 01:34:20,880 --> 01:34:28,620 If we're adding on the composting cart, their increase would be roughly $7 per month, and that's 1059 01:34:28,620 --> 01:34:31,140 because they have the two additional trashcarts in there. 1060 01:34:31,820 --> 01:34:36,680 And this is just one example of that service. 1061 01:34:38,580 --> 01:34:41,080 So, and granted our rates right now are preliminary. 1062 01:34:41,340 --> 01:34:44,500 We need to do a lot of additional work on our rate schedule and so forth. 1063 01:34:45,140 --> 01:34:50,680 But our whole goal is so that we're in training and sent customers to participate in the composting 1064 01:34:50,680 --> 01:34:53,900 recycling programs and minimize their trash that gives the landfill. 1065 01:34:54,860 --> 01:34:58,720 So this slide shows a comparison of our rates both 1066 01:34:58,720 --> 01:35:02,360 regionally and to some of the cities that we compare with 1067 01:35:02,360 --> 01:35:06,180 regionally and then another one for their way. 1068 01:35:06,580 --> 01:35:10,340 But you can see the 1777 for listed under Boise, 1069 01:35:10,780 --> 01:35:15,080 would be our rate after we add that increase for composting. 1070 01:35:15,200 --> 01:35:18,620 And you can see then that we're still very comparable to 1071 01:35:18,620 --> 01:35:23,800 to county and we're at the end of Q&A now, but we're still right in the ballpark or what they 1072 01:35:23,800 --> 01:35:24,200 offer. 1073 01:35:24,640 --> 01:35:31,160 If you compare more visually to Spokane Salt Lake, Portland, and even Austin, which is a little 1074 01:35:31,160 --> 01:35:37,960 bit further away, we're still under what they are charging their customers, and like for example 1075 01:35:37,960 --> 01:35:42,500 in Spokane, they actually charge their customers separately to compost, so it's an additional 1076 01:35:42,500 --> 01:35:45,880 be on top of their base rate. 1077 01:35:46,200 --> 01:35:54,520 Mr. Speaker, is this inclusive of what we're anticipating in terms of a rate increase 1078 01:35:54,520 --> 01:35:56,400 in solid waste anyway? 1079 01:35:57,340 --> 01:36:01,440 Mayor, council member, play, yes, this would be for that increase that we spoke of, yes. 1080 01:36:03,720 --> 01:36:10,560 Mr. Mayor, so the savings from what we won't be sending to the landfill, that's incorporated 1081 01:36:10,560 --> 01:36:18,980 it here. What we would pay into county or yeah. Yes, Mayor. Yes, that is part of the 1082 01:36:18,980 --> 01:36:25,140 differential from the reimbursement rate of 586 to republic services to the $3.40 1083 01:36:25,140 --> 01:36:30,060 sense that we'd actually be charging customers, the difference between those two numbers 1084 01:36:30,660 --> 01:36:35,160 is that savings for the landfill tip fees and things that are going to the landfill, 1085 01:36:35,180 --> 01:36:39,480 the compost revenue and a few other things that we've incorporated. That's quite a bit. 1086 01:36:39,480 --> 01:36:47,800 of the reduction on that and on. Now, have you seen anything in looking at these other cities 1087 01:36:47,800 --> 01:36:57,120 in terms of those that are individual citizens that already compost small segment of population, 1088 01:36:57,120 --> 01:37:07,560 we do a little in our house and is there anything that continues to incentivize them to do that 1089 01:37:07,560 --> 01:37:09,420 when they are paying this fee, you know, 1090 01:37:09,520 --> 01:37:11,000 like today's article on statesmen. 1091 01:37:11,360 --> 01:37:13,500 And the situation such as that, 1092 01:37:13,500 --> 01:37:17,560 I don't know if other cities have up-down options 1093 01:37:17,560 --> 01:37:18,880 for citizens that compost, 1094 01:37:19,100 --> 01:37:21,560 but of course you'd have to, we don't want to police that. 1095 01:37:23,300 --> 01:37:25,060 And if there's no, one last point, 1096 01:37:25,240 --> 01:37:28,020 if there's no reduced rates for smaller containers, 1097 01:37:28,940 --> 01:37:32,320 other than providing the compost for free, 1098 01:37:32,720 --> 01:37:36,280 what's the incentive for someone already composting 1099 01:37:36,280 --> 01:37:42,860 to support this. Mr. Mayor, Council Member, what we found is those cities who have very aggressive 1100 01:37:42,860 --> 01:37:47,000 waste diversion programs have a rate structure that really provides the incentive on 1101 01:37:47,000 --> 01:37:52,420 the trash and rather than focusing on the recycling waste reduction in. So they really, 1102 01:37:52,960 --> 01:37:58,680 as Council Member Clayton noted, Seattle, they have a 20 gallon rate. I mean, it's a little 1103 01:37:58,680 --> 01:38:03,200 tiny candy you might put out from your kitchen. So they've done it from the trash perspective 1104 01:38:03,200 --> 01:38:09,360 of really providing me incentive at that end, if you pay more, the more you throw away. 1105 01:38:10,140 --> 01:38:16,260 We haven't really seen any that provide rate reductions solely based on your recycling 1106 01:38:16,260 --> 01:38:17,140 or your composting. 1107 01:38:17,140 --> 01:38:21,720 They're more of a bundled rate for those kinds of services and then the incentive comes 1108 01:38:21,720 --> 01:38:23,240 from reducing the amount of trash you sell. 1109 01:38:23,260 --> 01:38:24,080 Trash, okay. 1110 01:38:24,140 --> 01:38:28,060 One of the things that we've talked about is, we do know we have some folks who are really 1111 01:38:28,060 --> 01:38:32,180 avid composters and we want to make sure that if they feel like they want to continue doing 1112 01:38:32,180 --> 01:38:38,740 they are empowered to do that. And so we can create a waiver process or a process to provide 1113 01:38:39,580 --> 01:38:42,720 them an opportunity to continue to do that without any penalty. 1114 01:38:43,580 --> 01:38:46,380 I really really like that. Thank you. 1115 01:38:46,400 --> 01:38:47,100 Mr. Mayor. 1116 01:38:48,940 --> 01:38:52,780 So I just wanted to go back to that if you think on first I do like the idea of a waiver if we can 1117 01:38:52,780 --> 01:39:03,530 come up with that. So right now I was going back to the re-vades and I asked because if 1118 01:39:03,530 --> 01:39:09,250 Right now, our garbage, 45% of our garbage is organics. 1119 01:39:11,330 --> 01:39:16,110 So in theory, we could use a garbage can that's 45% smaller, 1120 01:39:16,190 --> 01:39:17,290 anybody that opted in. 1121 01:39:17,430 --> 01:39:21,090 So getting to the true cost of garbage versus trying 1122 01:39:21,090 --> 01:39:24,550 to regulate it on the reusing, reducing the waste stream 1123 01:39:24,550 --> 01:39:33,560 side, I wonder if we can't look at a more noticeable 1124 01:39:33,560 --> 01:39:38,740 rebate over time. So right now I think you said it's a dollar off and I think I get something for recycling. 1125 01:39:39,100 --> 01:39:44,520 So it's a dollar for recycling but it has to be chipped a certain number of times. It's four dollars for recycling. 1126 01:39:45,300 --> 01:39:51,120 So what was the dollar that I asked that I got before? Oh, the smaller part. Okay, so it's four dollars for 1127 01:39:51,120 --> 01:39:59,540 recycling. The dollar for the smaller cart. But the true cost of that cart difference is a lot. 1128 01:40:03,100 --> 01:40:03,540 I mean 1129 01:40:04,280 --> 01:40:09,900 Over time, perhaps after we see the data, and then the other thing I wanted to ask about 1130 01:40:10,940 --> 01:40:15,000 when Councilman Thompson asked about what's in it for people that already compost. 1131 01:40:16,200 --> 01:40:21,640 With this being, I think one of the questions was whether or not meet product as part of this. 1132 01:40:21,980 --> 01:40:27,820 So can we put things in this composting that you couldn't put in to your home composting? 1133 01:40:28,460 --> 01:40:35,200 So Mayor Council member, the first question about the incentivizing and kind of looking at the rate structure, 1134 01:40:35,300 --> 01:40:39,240 absolutely want to do that, I think we want to get our kind of legs under us first, get the program started, 1135 01:40:39,660 --> 01:40:44,420 and over time we'll start to see that shift, and then have to start to address that, which would be a good thing. 1136 01:40:44,920 --> 01:40:49,220 So I agree with that and made a note of it, to maybe start thinking about how that evolves. 1137 01:40:49,720 --> 01:40:55,320 And the second question of the meets graphs. 1138 01:40:56,520 --> 01:41:00,200 So currently under state regulations, the DQ is not allowed. 1139 01:41:00,400 --> 01:41:02,440 Meet and dairy to go into a composting facility. 1140 01:41:03,420 --> 01:41:07,540 They have agreed to work with us on maybe trying to adjust that state rule. 1141 01:41:08,520 --> 01:41:12,540 So that potentially isn't, maybe an incentive for those folks to compost at home 1142 01:41:12,540 --> 01:41:16,240 that maybe don't want that in their compost that that might be an option for them. 1143 01:41:16,240 --> 01:41:20,420 But currently under state regs, it's not allowed, but we're going to work with the DQ and C if we get that changed. 1144 01:41:20,840 --> 01:41:21,220 All right. 1145 01:41:21,540 --> 01:41:22,380 Oh, one more question. 1146 01:41:23,040 --> 01:41:26,220 On the, so the glass cart, do we still pay for that? 1147 01:41:26,420 --> 01:41:28,240 Or have we wiped the charges out for that? 1148 01:41:29,060 --> 01:41:31,860 Is it, is it five now instead of ten the way it started? 1149 01:41:32,780 --> 01:41:33,860 Mayor of Council member, yes. 1150 01:41:34,820 --> 01:41:38,500 There's still will be a fee for the glass cart and it does around the five dollar work. 1151 01:41:38,800 --> 01:41:38,900 All right. 1152 01:41:39,120 --> 01:41:42,240 This just, I mean, this gets back to the kind of waste stream thing, 1153 01:41:42,780 --> 01:41:43,940 you know, a lot of people don't like carts, 1154 01:41:43,940 --> 01:41:51,020 But even in my neighborhood where you might expect everybody to be willing to pay for these services, 1155 01:41:51,520 --> 01:41:55,080 I often hear, well, why would I spend five bucks a month to recycle glass? 1156 01:41:55,200 --> 01:41:56,300 I can just put in the garbage hand. 1157 01:41:57,780 --> 01:42:01,340 So, I know that glass can crunch down and, you know, people make arguments. 1158 01:42:01,980 --> 01:42:03,140 Just say it's okay. 1159 01:42:03,500 --> 01:42:09,540 But I think that the more, if we aren't doing things on the garbage side long-term, 1160 01:42:09,540 --> 01:42:15,880 we're not going to get people to do the waste reduction on the right side. 1161 01:42:21,340 --> 01:42:22,380 All right, Mary, tell some members. 1162 01:42:22,560 --> 01:42:28,000 So the bottom part of the slide just shows a little bit of a comparison of what's currently in our race. 1163 01:42:28,740 --> 01:42:30,340 So we offer glass service. 1164 01:42:30,440 --> 01:42:36,940 It is at a fee, but none of our comparable cities in our area offer glass service. 1165 01:42:37,640 --> 01:42:42,880 But we also offer leaf and tree, bulk items are for free, appliances are for free. 1166 01:42:42,880 --> 01:42:49,060 And we also have our household hazardous waste program that's not included on the side that is also free for our customers. 1167 01:42:49,680 --> 01:42:58,960 And you can see in some of the other neighboring areas that some of those services are offered also offered, but they may offer them at a digital fee to their customers. 1168 01:42:59,380 --> 01:43:08,900 So that kind of reinforces that even with the composting fee added on to our rate that we're still very competitive in the market. 1169 01:43:08,900 --> 01:43:13,000 and trying to make those incentives for our customers. 1170 01:43:14,480 --> 01:43:16,680 I hate to turn this into things we should already know, 1171 01:43:16,840 --> 01:43:18,820 but where do you put your house on the hazardous waste? 1172 01:43:19,020 --> 01:43:22,120 You know, I have to take them to the downport to you. 1173 01:43:22,580 --> 01:43:28,580 Mr. Mayor, we have specific collection sites that you can take your hazardous waste to, 1174 01:43:29,480 --> 01:43:32,620 so there's a, on our curbitboise.org site. 1175 01:43:32,840 --> 01:43:34,200 There's a, you can't set them up. 1176 01:43:34,300 --> 01:43:35,580 So you've got to take them to the place. 1177 01:43:35,620 --> 01:43:38,260 I have to take them to the location where you can take them up to the landfill. 1178 01:43:38,260 --> 01:43:38,920 Okay. 1179 01:43:40,380 --> 01:43:41,600 Mr. Mayer. 1180 01:43:41,680 --> 01:43:46,920 Also, isn't there additional savings, not on our own, perhaps, but on a decounties, and 1181 01:43:46,920 --> 01:43:54,720 they have to organic waste, thanks to some recent research that have done on my understanding 1182 01:43:54,720 --> 01:44:02,740 that the methane production has to be managed, and so if organics produce the vast majority 1183 01:44:02,740 --> 01:44:12,000 of that methane, 80-county has to manage one, we required to manage less, which is a potential 1184 01:44:12,000 --> 01:44:14,640 savings, or all of 80-county citizens. 1185 01:44:21,290 --> 01:44:25,270 Okay, just a quick overview of the upcoming schedule, so obviously, may we're here in front 1186 01:44:25,270 --> 01:44:28,930 of Council, just looking for the approval to proceed, and I got another slide that talks 1187 01:44:28,930 --> 01:44:30,510 about what we're actually asking for today. 1188 01:44:31,410 --> 01:44:38,610 In June, we're going to be presenting to the 80-county commissioners and the Slack as the 1189 01:44:38,610 --> 01:44:40,630 basically what we're presenting to you today. 1190 01:44:40,830 --> 01:44:42,370 Initiate the public education and outreach. 1191 01:44:42,690 --> 01:44:45,910 We have had meetings with Joanna and her group on the community engagement piece. 1192 01:44:46,370 --> 01:44:49,610 So hopefully, in June, we'll be working out those details within July. 1193 01:44:49,890 --> 01:44:51,970 We start rolling out the public education piece. 1194 01:44:52,590 --> 01:44:54,410 We need to work on the renewing the franchise agreement. 1195 01:44:54,450 --> 01:44:55,510 This is pretty important. 1196 01:44:55,670 --> 01:44:56,950 It's almost a critical, not almost. 1197 01:44:56,970 --> 01:44:59,970 It is a critical pathway to them because it then allows us. 1198 01:45:00,000 --> 01:45:03,540 To be able to acquire the capital investment on the public side. 1199 01:45:05,220 --> 01:45:09,440 And lieu of that, they can't go ahead and make that investment in those 15 new trucks that we need, etc. 1200 01:45:10,680 --> 01:45:13,000 The writing increase we mentioned will happen on October 1st. 1201 01:45:13,780 --> 01:45:16,880 The conditional use permit, we have a question mark on that. We've been talking to House Simmons. 1202 01:45:17,420 --> 01:45:20,320 It looks like we'll probably need a conditional use permit from a county. 1203 01:45:21,140 --> 01:45:23,020 So we'll be working through that process. 1204 01:45:23,920 --> 01:45:28,340 We'll have the compost facility permitted through the DEQ to help to have that wrapped up by December. 1205 01:45:28,340 --> 01:45:32,200 and then initiate car delivery in early part of 2017 and this 1206 01:45:32,200 --> 01:45:35,880 cast me alluded to initiate the collection and composting program in the spring of 1207 01:45:35,880 --> 01:45:41,000 2017 March April 10th. Yes, Mr. Mayor. So Steve, 1208 01:45:43,440 --> 01:45:45,200 during the car delivery will you 1209 01:45:45,200 --> 01:45:48,580 also trade out existing trashcarts for smaller ones? 1210 01:45:50,400 --> 01:45:53,800 Mayor Council, remember I think that would be the probably the appropriate time to do it. 1211 01:45:53,920 --> 01:45:58,320 And one of the things that we're going to recommend regarding the car is that we 1212 01:45:58,320 --> 01:46:01,660 We use the gray carts with a green lid that gives us more flexibility. 1213 01:46:01,940 --> 01:46:05,520 We already have a number of gray carts related to our existing program. 1214 01:46:05,940 --> 01:46:08,040 And hopefully, over time, provides some capital savings. 1215 01:46:08,280 --> 01:46:12,380 But yes, at that time, we would try to cycle through all the cart size changes. 1216 01:46:16,200 --> 01:46:20,760 So our final slide, a staff recommendation, we're hopefully get direction to proceed with the 1217 01:46:20,760 --> 01:46:24,960 addition of the residence of curbside Organics Program, direction to go ahead and work with 1218 01:46:24,960 --> 01:46:28,160 Republic Services to update and renew the franchise agreement with Republic Services. 1219 01:46:28,640 --> 01:46:29,860 And then, approve the rate recommendations. 1220 01:46:29,860 --> 01:46:34,480 we don't require any motions at this time. Certainly we'll come back to you with the updated 1221 01:46:34,480 --> 01:46:38,520 French Hazard Agreement hopefully in the July August timeframe and the approval of the rate 1222 01:46:38,520 --> 01:46:44,400 recommendations will hopefully follow the budgeting process as it typically moves forward and you'll 1223 01:46:44,400 --> 01:46:47,000 have an opportunity to comment on those as they move forward. 1224 01:46:51,070 --> 01:46:53,250 I really appreciate you all bringing this 1225 01:46:53,250 --> 01:46:58,970 forward today. I love work that you've done on this and I know in my time on the council 1226 01:46:58,970 --> 01:47:05,670 So the request for this kind of recycling has been consistent over all that time. 1227 01:47:05,790 --> 01:47:21,670 I mean, people want to be able to have this option to do this and, you know, when we look at where we are from our boundary standpoint, we are at our city boundaries and whatever we can do in terms of preserving the landfill space for as long as humanly possible, I think we need to be doing. 1228 01:47:21,670 --> 01:47:30,110 So, and I'm also comforted by the fact that you're going to establish some type of a waiver provision for the true home compost. 1229 01:47:30,350 --> 01:47:36,230 I think that's important as well. So, I'm fully in support of this, and I really appreciate the work you guys have done. 1230 01:47:36,810 --> 01:47:38,290 Thank you. Mr. Mayor. 1231 01:47:38,730 --> 01:47:44,190 One of the questions I had forgotten to ask that. First of all, I love the selection of the 20 miles south location, 1232 01:47:44,190 --> 01:47:53,310 a great research and decision there that there's space I assume for allowing additional cities 1233 01:47:53,310 --> 01:47:59,090 to join in. I mean because I could see OECS taking the lead a lot of times on programs such 1234 01:47:59,090 --> 01:48:06,670 as this and then it proves to be successful and I would hope this one does too and then cities 1235 01:48:06,670 --> 01:48:14,050 like Meridian, Q&A, and those could join in and don't need that location. So is that 1236 01:48:14,050 --> 01:48:19,910 location that allows for that. Mayor, Councilor Thompson, yes. That's something that we considered 1237 01:48:19,910 --> 01:48:25,170 several months ago. We talked to Councilor leadership just for some direction on how would you 1238 01:48:25,170 --> 01:48:30,930 feel about if other cities were contacting us about one in the join in on our composting facility 1239 01:48:30,930 --> 01:48:36,930 down the farm. And we're sounding yes, we would support that and want to be a leader and make that 1240 01:48:36,930 --> 01:48:41,490 available to other communities. And we kind of hopefully had the caveat that we want to get our 1241 01:48:41,490 --> 01:48:49,470 Kind of legs under us first, first maybe four, five, six years, get up and running, see how it's working and then be able to pivot if other communities are interested, we'd like to make that land available. 1242 01:48:49,730 --> 01:48:50,490 Thank you. 1243 01:48:53,260 --> 01:48:54,000 Mr. Mayor. 1244 01:48:54,880 --> 01:48:59,260 Just a few comments on the program and thank you for bringing this, because I think it's very important. 1245 01:48:59,880 --> 01:49:13,180 I'm fully supportive of being involved in this program, but on a voluntary basis, as I mentioned before, I'd like to see the program get started, but in some way of a manner of educating the public. 1246 01:49:14,180 --> 01:49:19,800 and since it has hit the news in the last week, it's been a lot of time researching 1247 01:49:19,800 --> 01:49:25,460 and a lot more than I did a week ago on this issue, I might be able to do it successfully. 1248 01:49:26,420 --> 01:49:33,060 I tried, but also to encourage the public to make a commitment to take part in a voluntary 1249 01:49:33,060 --> 01:49:41,620 program over the course of the next 60 or 90 days so that the city knows how many people 1250 01:49:41,620 --> 01:49:47,540 willing to take part. It makes the fee less interesting because if somebody wants to take part, 1251 01:49:47,800 --> 01:49:51,840 they certainly can go in with their eyes open and know what the fee is. I might even get some 1252 01:49:51,840 --> 01:49:58,600 car cure Christmas. What a great gift. But I do think that it should be volunteering. I think 1253 01:49:58,600 --> 01:50:04,140 that there needs to be further analysis as the franchise agreement is being developed with 1254 01:50:04,140 --> 01:50:10,340 Republic who's done a great job, by the way. Then we can get a better performer on the financial aspects 1255 01:50:10,340 --> 01:50:16,900 of what that fee would be. And if the numbers are conservative, a year or two down the road 1256 01:50:16,900 --> 01:50:22,240 when we're successfully accomplishing this program and the amount of compost is significant 1257 01:50:22,240 --> 01:50:31,320 in the landfill uses reduce significantly. You might find that the user taxpayer might have 1258 01:50:31,320 --> 01:50:37,600 a reduced fee because the compost program has been so successful at 20 miles. That's 1259 01:50:37,600 --> 01:50:40,560 I thought and thank you for your effort on this. 1260 01:50:43,550 --> 01:50:44,770 It's one last point. 1261 01:50:46,010 --> 01:50:47,130 I didn't say great job. 1262 01:50:47,710 --> 01:50:53,010 This phenomenal work, the three of you have done and appreciate all you put into this. 1263 01:50:54,350 --> 01:50:57,190 And it's an important program for all the right reasons. 1264 01:50:57,330 --> 01:51:05,610 You know, the space of the landfill, the product that is created from it, the reduction in methane gas. 1265 01:51:05,610 --> 01:51:12,070 I certainly am concerned about costs and so the savings from the landfill, it's important 1266 01:51:12,070 --> 01:51:13,150 to see that transition. 1267 01:51:13,490 --> 01:51:20,650 I like seeing incentives that reduce people's costs when they put out less trash, which 1268 01:51:20,650 --> 01:51:26,130 certainly makes sense to vital components of this program for me, our course, the waiver, 1269 01:51:26,590 --> 01:51:27,510 which you would move forward. 1270 01:51:27,650 --> 01:51:33,990 So if someone is already composting on their property, they could be excluded from the program 1271 01:51:33,990 --> 01:51:38,770 and the fee associated, and then also the product itself, 1272 01:51:38,890 --> 01:51:42,210 making that free for all of our residential citizens, 1273 01:51:42,310 --> 01:51:45,030 so that they see a true benefit and make a backup 1274 01:51:45,030 --> 01:51:47,130 to truck and pick some up and put it in their yard. 1275 01:51:47,790 --> 01:51:48,590 So, thanks, and great work. 1276 01:51:49,230 --> 01:51:49,890 Thank you. 1277 01:51:50,210 --> 01:51:52,330 Ms. Mayor, I just want to say two. 1278 01:51:52,330 --> 01:51:54,310 I know that we'll have the hearing on fees later. 1279 01:51:54,730 --> 01:51:56,530 I'm just a couple of thoughts. 1280 01:51:57,990 --> 01:51:59,550 I think this is a great program. 1281 01:51:59,890 --> 01:52:02,370 And for us to make it happen, I think that it's important 1282 01:52:02,370 --> 01:52:05,770 that we just move forward with it all at once. 1283 01:52:06,270 --> 01:52:10,650 We saw youth go up and down with recycling, with glass. 1284 01:52:11,610 --> 01:52:15,590 And we have heard from citizens, you've been here even longer. 1285 01:52:16,050 --> 01:52:18,670 But since I've gotten here, it's one of the most regular things 1286 01:52:18,670 --> 01:52:20,910 that I hear from people is, why isn't Boise? 1287 01:52:21,490 --> 01:52:24,590 Why doesn't Boise have a curbside composing program? 1288 01:52:25,310 --> 01:52:29,230 I would love, once we said this once we started, 1289 01:52:29,230 --> 01:52:37,330 to actually have a report and interactive report either online or in our bills over time that shows. 1290 01:52:37,950 --> 01:52:42,110 And what we're saving, because really citizens are shareholders in this. 1291 01:52:42,690 --> 01:52:47,310 And if we over time are reducing 45% of the waste that goes into the landfill, 1292 01:52:47,350 --> 01:52:51,950 that means that we're saving right now the $5 rebate and we can explain that. 1293 01:52:52,190 --> 01:52:57,570 But I expect over time we also save money related to not having to move and create a new landfill. 1294 01:52:57,570 --> 01:53:00,870 And we might find that we have more income from compost. 1295 01:53:01,510 --> 01:53:07,870 We can show that, but to explain to our citizens how all of this works together is part 1296 01:53:07,870 --> 01:53:14,650 of an education process that I think will help us start to determine how to get at reducing 1297 01:53:14,650 --> 01:53:21,450 waste stream and incentivizing and rebating reduced waste stream moving forward. 1298 01:53:26,220 --> 01:53:32,640 I won't repeat what everyone else has had good job, but I think Councilmember McLean really 1299 01:53:32,640 --> 01:53:38,580 gets to this issue, which is we need to make these things make economic sense for people. 1300 01:53:39,260 --> 01:53:46,520 And even people sometimes really want to do something, won't often do it if it doesn't 1301 01:53:46,520 --> 01:53:52,700 make economic sense to them, but when they understand the economics of it, they become much 1302 01:53:52,700 --> 01:53:59,220 more likely to participate and be loyal to it, so I think really our job here is to make 1303 01:53:59,220 --> 01:54:05,260 sure that we show that triple bottom line in this case, the economic bottom line in a 1304 01:54:05,260 --> 01:54:06,940 really transparent way. 1305 01:54:08,680 --> 01:54:09,260 Thank you, Mayor. 1306 01:54:09,900 --> 01:54:16,310 You know, I had one other question before that we got everybody here that I think I know 1307 01:54:16,310 --> 01:54:23,590 the answer, but one of my concerns, and as I've looked at research these issues and especially 1308 01:54:23,590 --> 01:54:30,670 countries that have gone to a zero waste, it's almost always and correct me if I'm wrong 1309 01:54:30,670 --> 01:54:37,710 that they use some type of incineration that produces power, they have almost no emissions 1310 01:54:37,710 --> 01:54:43,030 or whatever the low emissions, and that's one of the ways they attain it. 1311 01:54:43,670 --> 01:54:49,930 I assume the green waste can't be sinnerated in that way, but one of my concerns is always 1312 01:54:49,930 --> 01:54:59,320 of ours, the recyclables, the marqueness, volatile to say the least, where I think what 1313 01:54:59,320 --> 01:55:06,260 they've done to hedge that, and to go to zero waste is this. No, or lower emissions 1314 01:55:06,860 --> 01:55:15,120 incineration. Can you just give me a kind of, what's the state of things out there when it comes 1315 01:55:15,120 --> 01:55:17,300 to that, whether green waste figures in there or not? 1316 01:55:17,300 --> 01:55:18,380 Sure, Mr. Mayor. 1317 01:55:18,520 --> 01:55:22,420 And I could start maybe Catherine can provide more detail information, but certainly as 1318 01:55:22,420 --> 01:55:26,880 a city, one of the things broadly we're looking at is we have kind of all these waste 1319 01:55:26,880 --> 01:55:30,180 streams that we generate as a city and how do we beneficially reuse that whether it's 1320 01:55:30,180 --> 01:55:34,540 wastewater and the methane and that we're producing there and then our waste stream analysis 1321 01:55:34,540 --> 01:55:35,660 was solid waste. 1322 01:55:35,760 --> 01:55:42,160 So broadly we're trying to develop kind of umbrella programs on energy on how do we get the 1323 01:55:42,160 --> 01:55:43,300 zero waste? 1324 01:55:43,560 --> 01:55:47,280 How do we get to maybe a carbon neutral see those types of discussions we've already 1325 01:55:47,280 --> 01:55:54,460 started. So, broadly we're looking at that regarding how we pivot on that specific to this issue, 1326 01:55:54,620 --> 01:55:58,300 maybe Catherine, if you have any more detailed information, there's certainly this 1327 01:55:58,300 --> 01:56:03,880 base is moving quickly, very quickly. And so, there's a power piece to this that we can 1328 01:56:03,880 --> 01:56:06,040 certainly investigate further as we move along. 1329 01:56:06,860 --> 01:56:11,280 Mr. Mayor, one of the things that we've talked about is on the, and I'm surprised to know 1330 01:56:11,280 --> 01:56:17,160 on the commercial side, what about food waste and yard waste from the commercial generators? 1331 01:56:17,780 --> 01:56:24,520 And one of the things that we have in the back of our mind and planning for is to take commercial food waste in particular, 1332 01:56:24,520 --> 01:56:30,000 restaurants, grocery stores, institutions, and be able to use those to beneficially create energy. 1333 01:56:31,240 --> 01:56:33,940 Particularly through the wastewater treatment plan in anaerobic digestion. 1334 01:56:34,220 --> 01:56:36,640 So that's kind of out there on the horizon for those folks. 1335 01:56:36,640 --> 01:56:50,860 Another thing that we've talked about from a zero waste sort of perspective that Republic is really stepping up to the plate and helping us with this future thinking is construction and demolition debris is another huge part of our waste stream here. 1336 01:56:51,380 --> 01:57:04,660 And is there an opportunity to beneficially reuse or divert those materials and what kind of facility and infrastructure would we have to have in place to provide that opportunity to reuse those materials and to divert them at the lowest cost possible. 1337 01:57:04,660 --> 01:57:08,980 because we want to make sure that the system is economically efficient as well. 1338 01:57:09,560 --> 01:57:13,160 So, having an opportunity, maybe in the next year, two or three or four, 1339 01:57:13,660 --> 01:57:18,380 of being able to divert some of those construction and demolition materials for reuse. 1340 01:57:18,780 --> 01:57:23,900 And, and build the industries and the businesses that can take those materials and reuse them locally, 1341 01:57:23,920 --> 01:57:28,480 like we have with our glass. I mean, we're really blessed that we can take the glass 1342 01:57:28,480 --> 01:57:33,760 because we have a local partner that can make a product and make money off of that glass. 1343 01:57:33,760 --> 01:57:37,100 It's not a lot of money, but at least it's making a little bit of money locally off of our 1344 01:57:37,100 --> 01:57:37,460 glass. 1345 01:57:38,120 --> 01:57:43,040 So that's some of the other opportunities that we know are kind of the next phase after 1346 01:57:43,560 --> 01:57:44,020 organics. 1347 01:57:44,160 --> 01:57:48,500 Organics obviously represent the largest volume room material that we could remove from 1348 01:57:48,500 --> 01:57:49,540 that waste from immediately. 1349 01:57:50,380 --> 01:57:55,040 Now, the curb it plan originally, the cell waste plan originally actually included that 1350 01:57:55,040 --> 01:57:57,760 as a long term goal getting the yard waste out of there. 1351 01:57:58,020 --> 01:58:01,500 And Mr. Mayor, one of the last things I wanted to comment on was the green waste. 1352 01:58:01,500 --> 01:58:05,140 The city of Spokane has a waste of energy, facility. 1353 01:58:05,500 --> 01:58:11,120 Their TIPP is $99 a ton, and they have to get all of the green waste out of that material 1354 01:58:11,120 --> 01:58:15,560 before it goes in the incinerator, because if they didn't, it brings the temperature of 1355 01:58:15,560 --> 01:58:18,720 the incinerator down, it is less efficient, and we're costly to operate. 1356 01:58:19,240 --> 01:58:23,260 So they have a separate green waste program that they actually charge that additional fee 1357 01:58:23,260 --> 01:58:23,720 for. 1358 01:58:23,740 --> 01:58:24,900 And it's a seasonal fee. 1359 01:58:25,360 --> 01:58:29,660 In the winter months it's a lower fee, because they collect less and more kitchen scraps 1360 01:58:29,660 --> 01:58:31,600 and in the summertime, it's all of their yard waste. 1361 01:58:32,080 --> 01:58:36,660 So that's how those communities are doing it because those systems are very expensive to operate 1362 01:58:36,660 --> 01:58:40,280 and they have to be able to divert those multiple wasteings in different ways. 1363 01:58:41,140 --> 01:58:45,440 Mr. Rader, on the food waste piece, Catherine mentioned, is certainly an idea that we're 1364 01:58:45,440 --> 01:58:49,460 going to be pushing out in the future right now. We're just trying to focus on the curb center 1365 01:58:49,460 --> 01:58:53,460 as a residential first, and then at some point be able to pivot to the commercial side. 1366 01:58:54,220 --> 01:58:57,340 And then as far as the incineration answer to your question directly, we have really looked 1367 01:58:57,340 --> 01:59:02,480 that too closely, we can certainly do some more research and figure out where that space is 1368 01:59:02,480 --> 01:59:02,920 moving. 1369 01:59:04,040 --> 01:59:07,400 It's an interesting question for us because of our cheap power, generally speaking that 1370 01:59:07,400 --> 01:59:11,360 we did a lot of times financially, those solutions are really difficult to make pencil. 1371 01:59:11,480 --> 01:59:12,800 I don't know what I thought the answer was, 1372 01:59:15,710 --> 01:59:19,110 but it concerns me because it costs more 1373 01:59:19,970 --> 01:59:25,570 to collect it sometimes than you get from whatever the commodity is. 1374 01:59:25,570 --> 01:59:30,310 And then you read these, I don't think they're applicable to us, 1375 01:59:30,310 --> 01:59:34,410 but these horror stories that they're, you know, 1376 01:59:34,530 --> 01:59:37,970 barging it around, trying to find a place for it, 1377 01:59:38,990 --> 01:59:41,450 or that you're taking it, you know, farther, 1378 01:59:42,570 --> 01:59:45,810 and storing it rather than recycling it. 1379 01:59:46,050 --> 01:59:49,350 So I just wonder, I think, given my hands with these, 1380 01:59:49,730 --> 01:59:53,210 which is often times the answer here, with the power rates as low as they are, 1381 01:59:53,210 --> 01:59:59,890 You can't get to a model that works in that way and that makes sense to me just keep an eye on that 1382 02:00:00,000 --> 02:00:29,820 It was a time we talked about this, so we had the latest and greatest coming into the office to say, you know, this is the new cold fusion, and we're going to have power from here, real soon. And obviously we've seen where that ends, and we've been right to be suspect, but just to keep an eye on that for us and report how that's going. The other question just before we all close is the water usage for the compost, is that, 1383 02:00:31,160 --> 02:00:39,080 You know, you're always faced with a much energy, does it cost and other substances 1384 02:00:39,080 --> 02:00:44,600 and whether that's a net gain, you know, you always have those naseres or the equations 1385 02:00:44,600 --> 02:00:49,780 that say, well, actually you're taking more energy than you're saving or you're those kinds 1386 02:00:50,820 --> 02:00:57,280 of equations, the water usage and compost is that relatively reasonable, I guess. 1387 02:00:57,720 --> 02:01:01,460 Mr. Mayor, we think so, and that's one of the reasons we located at the Twain Mile 1388 02:01:01,460 --> 02:01:01,980 South Farm. 1389 02:01:01,980 --> 02:01:03,580 We have the water right down there. 1390 02:01:04,260 --> 02:01:10,580 That water gets used on the site already, and it's available, so as far as the amount 1391 02:01:10,580 --> 02:01:11,980 of water after we went in the average. 1392 02:01:12,320 --> 02:01:15,060 We can get more detailed information on the actual amount of water. 1393 02:01:15,340 --> 02:01:17,980 It will take a little more water in our air climate, certainly. 1394 02:01:18,440 --> 02:01:21,240 We went out to the Portland Corballester Outer Facility. 1395 02:01:21,920 --> 02:01:23,280 They didn't need a whole lot of water. 1396 02:01:23,320 --> 02:01:25,600 In fact, the day we were there was just a downpour. 1397 02:01:25,600 --> 02:01:30,540 But that's something that we will definitely have to augment our composting facility with given our climate. 1398 02:01:30,920 --> 02:01:32,300 We'll get back to you on that. 1399 02:01:33,700 --> 02:01:35,500 We're just one quick request. 1400 02:01:35,780 --> 02:01:37,640 Can you send us the slide that you showed? 1401 02:01:37,760 --> 02:01:42,360 Because I think the most telling thing and all of this is the comparison of costs, 1402 02:01:44,160 --> 02:01:49,580 trash service for all the cities and the value that this really does represent. 1403 02:01:49,920 --> 02:01:53,500 And so I think it'd be helpful to us and respond to how that information. 1404 02:01:53,500 --> 02:01:55,560 We'll do that. 1405 02:01:55,660 --> 02:01:55,900 Yes. 1406 02:01:56,700 --> 02:02:01,140 And Katherine, I appreciate you mentioning looking at additional opportunities going forward. 1407 02:02:01,660 --> 02:02:04,540 I do want to encourage you to, and I know you well. 1408 02:02:05,100 --> 02:02:09,960 But tie those in with some of the great things that may already be happening. 1409 02:02:10,820 --> 02:02:15,800 Like wood shipping at the landfill, of course, that's a great product program. 1410 02:02:16,100 --> 02:02:17,980 And we wouldn't want to take away from that. 1411 02:02:19,800 --> 02:02:22,120 Ms. Mayor, I'm sorry. I have one more question. 1412 02:02:25,620 --> 02:02:31,120 The, because when we do rates, this, when we do rate changes this week, this summer, it'll 1413 02:02:31,120 --> 02:02:36,140 be a whole bunch of rates. So I'm just on this. So we're getting the total cost of the program 1414 02:02:36,140 --> 02:02:44,460 is 840 per household, but we're giving a $5 rebate based on what we save, see if you're about 1415 02:02:44,460 --> 02:02:52,900 to correct me. Okay, so if we're getting a $5 rebate because we save $5, but it costs 840. Does that 1416 02:02:52,900 --> 02:03:01,640 that regardless, the rates would have to go up. What is that? $1.60? To cover the growing costs of 1417 02:03:02,660 --> 02:03:03,180 service? 1418 02:03:07,270 --> 02:03:13,510 Do the math or my head not following the dollar $1.60 or maybe it's not. But so, you know, they're 1419 02:03:13,510 --> 02:03:21,050 going up $3.40. Yes, but if we didn't do this morning, I'll take it offline because I'm just wondering 1420 02:03:21,050 --> 02:03:26,510 if there's actually the difference between what rates would really end up next year if we didn't do this. 1421 02:03:26,610 --> 02:03:33,270 We're assuming they'd say the same, but it sounds like it would cost more regardless 1422 02:03:33,270 --> 02:03:36,350 because there's a cost of putting the things in the lentil. 1423 02:03:36,630 --> 02:03:42,150 But as you've got that afterwards, and then we can figure out if there's the actual change 1424 02:03:42,150 --> 02:03:44,850 theory would be $1.85 or something. 1425 02:03:44,850 --> 02:04:06,040 We just have to ask this, I assume, besides the spoken situation, that's, so there's really no such thing as putting your composted green waste in your recycling, 1426 02:04:08,400 --> 02:04:09,640 but non-sort. 1427 02:04:10,520 --> 02:04:18,540 I just, I'm so thankful for the life that you've given me and that's not standing out there in the morning sorting between the recyclables. 1428 02:04:19,180 --> 02:04:25,240 I'm about to head back into sort land, right? There's no alternative. 1429 02:04:26,300 --> 02:04:34,060 I mean, just going to have to make it in your home or at the receptacle, right? 1430 02:04:34,060 --> 02:04:42,240 I'm Mr. Mayor. I did fail to mention that we're going to make available to customers and inside bins, so you could do it right there. 1431 02:04:42,400 --> 02:04:44,640 Your kitchen sink and hollow right out to your company. 1432 02:04:46,120 --> 02:04:48,560 They'll be a thief, but it'll be a good one. 1433 02:04:48,960 --> 02:04:52,020 No, I'll live just wondering what's coming. 1434 02:04:52,600 --> 02:04:53,280 It'll be alright. 1435 02:04:53,520 --> 02:04:57,860 It would be very hard to separate out grass clippings from all the grass to your recycling. 1436 02:04:58,620 --> 02:04:59,560 Just visualize. 1437 02:05:00,660 --> 02:05:01,020 That would be a... 1438 02:05:01,020 --> 02:05:02,280 No, I understand it. 1439 02:05:03,240 --> 02:05:05,280 So we really have to keep a bar. 1440 02:05:05,600 --> 02:05:12,600 Our friends at Republic are so cutting edge that maybe they've gotten there. 1441 02:05:14,910 --> 02:05:15,250 All right. 1442 02:05:15,890 --> 02:05:17,590 We're going to leave it there, I think. 1443 02:05:17,790 --> 02:05:17,890 Okay. 1444 02:05:17,890 --> 02:05:18,490 Thank you very much. 1445 02:05:20,310 --> 02:05:20,770 Thank you. 1446 02:05:20,930 --> 02:05:21,290 Thank you. 1447 02:05:21,690 --> 02:05:22,310 Mr. Mayor. 1448 02:05:23,270 --> 02:05:24,030 I move. 1449 02:05:24,150 --> 02:05:25,650 We're going to executive session. 1450 02:05:26,070 --> 02:05:28,040 Personnel, land acquisition records. 1451 02:05:28,390 --> 02:05:31,270 Exam from public disclosure, pending probable litigation. 1452 02:05:31,270 --> 02:05:36,270 and labor contract, Idaho code 74206-1BCDFNJ. 1453 02:05:38,710 --> 02:05:39,270 Rokal. 1454 02:05:39,330 --> 02:05:39,850 Sorry, I think. 1455 02:05:39,910 --> 02:05:40,250 Hansen. 1456 02:05:41,430 --> 02:05:41,990 Gordon. 1457 02:05:42,570 --> 02:05:42,630 Yes. 1458 02:05:42,870 --> 02:05:43,370 Ludwig. 1459 02:05:43,430 --> 02:05:43,990 Yes. 1460 02:05:44,950 --> 02:05:45,230 Montana.
