And, APPROPRIATE for submission to the electorate. +2 Ord 18-54 11/7/2018 8:39 PM Eric Lein   For Bureaucratic thinking boggles my mind: FIRST, raise garbage prices; NEXT, raise wages because people can’t afford to live here. __ While considering this new minimum wage ordinance, please understand that recently-adopted garbage ordinances harm many low-paid workers who live in St. Paul. Despite vocal opposition by thousands of residents, only two councilmembers voted against skewed and oppressive garbage price increases that “rolled out” as of 10/01/2018. For garbage there is NO multi-year phase-in, NO sharing, NO opt-out, and there are NO exceptions (unless customers submit plane tickets or doctors’ notes for review by the self-appointed garbage police). REALLY?!! __ Let’s be fair to everyone by letting wages, and garbage prices, move to reasonable levels. REGARDING WAGES: Adopt a thoroughly-vetted plan when the time is right. REGARDING GARBAGE: On 11/14/2018, acknowledge that the citizens’ petition on Garbage Ordinance 18-39, containing 5,541 valid signatures, is "sufficient." +5 RES 18-1760 10/21/2018 8:55 PM Michael     The City needs to keep to the original idea of having one collector for the ***igned zones (this has been amazing for my neighborhood) but also MUST identify cost improvements such that households have greater flexibility in the costs ***ociated with this new service. RES 18-1760 10/18/2018 4:42 PM Pat   For It’s a credit to our excellent recycling service that a great deal of the city doesn’t seem to need home pickup of their trash. Personally, I would be hard-pressed to fill a 34-gallon trash bin in a quarter, let alone bi-weekly. I want to pay my fair share for the trash I produce, but the current plan doesn’t make that possible. I’m now paying about $200 more a year for trash disposal, and getting a service I don’t need, especially since the collection site is about a block off my route to work. There must be a middle ground here. Perhaps you could double my trash costs, instead of tripling them? Have you considered an annual collection site usage fee for Do-It-Yourselfers, and/or adjusting prices at the collection site? +3 RES 18-1760 10/18/2018 12:38 AM Billy   For Previously, 5 families were sharing one bin. Why? Because we are poor. Now we have to pay over $800 more per year in total. Our city council voted against the best interest of the people and the poor, without our consent. Without this referendum, we will simply have to wait until we can vote the current city councilors out. For them, it might already be too late. +6 RES 18-1760 10/17/2018 11:51 PM Shawn   For Absolutely terrible idea. Was this the best you could come up with? I am against the St Paul trash service. You didn't discuss this with members of the community. You sent out flyers telling people you were forcing them to pay for a private service. Why not send them out asking if we concur?! You liberals try to control others who don't have the same point of view. THIS ISNT AMERICA. Too many trucks tearing up the roads is a complete joke, you don't do enough preventative maintenance into these roads. When cracks are allowed to soak up water, then freeze, you get problems. Has absolutely nothing to do with an extra truck or two driving down the road. I have ten-fold the amount of school buses on my road. Wanna address that? +4 RES 18-1754 10/17/2018 5:51 PM SharonAnderson   For This Res 18-1754OctDomesticV is vague,Ambigious, via Brendmoen aka Mrs.MikeHahmMJNelson,Mayor Melvin Carter Endorsement of Muslin Keith Ellison, Heinous Violation of the Constitutional Office of MNAG,Sharon Loyal Trump Supporter will not and must not submit to Authority/Jurisdiction http://freedom-4you.blogspot.com of any Muslin forcing Quoran,Sharia Law on the Citizenery, Please withdraw your Endorsements. RES 18-1760 10/17/2018 4:31 AM Bruce   For I'm delighted that Ordinance 18-39 is being rescinded. If and when the petition drive succeeds to have Ordinance 18-40 placed before the voters in a referendum, I hope that the Council will revoke this ordinance as well. Then, working with representative of St. Paul CARTless, I hope that the Council will craft a more balanced approach to any future attempt to adopt any MANDATORY trash collection program in St. Paul. By "balanced", I mean adopting a policy where residential trash fees are in line with what Mpls residents are charged. Also, having an opt-out feature for so-called "zero wasters" who, by their habits, lessen their contribution to the solid waste stream. Also, that neighbors, and those in rental units of up to four units be allowed to share trash cans. Also, that the city forego attempts to tack on "administrative fees" to our property tax bill each year----when residents are paying the haulers directly, and not having the city collect residential trash disposal fees. +5 RES 18-1760 10/17/2018 3:40 AM Meredith   For When I could choose my own hauler, my cost was $33/billing cycle. For the exact same size bin and service, I now pay $78/cycle. If I had an extra $500 a year, I would not be living in Frogtown! While I support organized hauling in general, this process has been, literally, a trash fire. Why are we paying more for less? It even charges us extra for organics! The petition is sufficient. If you didn't want us to demand a vote on it, you should have studied other organized trash systems and come up with something that works, and doesn't disproportionately affect economically disadvantaged communities. +7 RES 18-1760 10/17/2018 1:25 AM Daniel Brown     The success of this petition effort demonstrates how concerned and frustrated St. Paul residents are with the City's Organized Trash Program. I urge City Council to revise this plan to maintain what is good about it, but listen to concerns that residents have raised, so that we can have a more acceptable plan. Sharing garbage cans is not a crime. It makes sense, and it is economical for many, many residence. +8 RES 18-1760 10/15/2018 5:52 AM Eric Lein   For A vote to find that "our" petition, with its 5,071 valid signatures, on ORD 18-40 is sufficient will be greatly appreciated. +11 -1 RLH AR 18-71 10/13/2018 11:08 AM St. Paul   Against Sick of ILLEGAL Excessive Consumption Ponzi Taxing Schemes Still Tracking Sharon is still Loyal Donald Trump Supporter http://sharon4mnag.blogspot.com -1 Ord 18-49 10/11/2018 8:58 PM Ben Ashley-Wurtmann   For While I am sorry to see any downzoning aong Marshall, I do applaud CM Nelson’s amendment. Preserving opportunities for transit oriented growth along the vital 21/53 bus route is a must do thing for St Paul. We recently received news that the world will see deadly and irreversible climate change in a decade. The least we can do for those who would like to live longer than 12 more years is to better promote places where it’s easy to be car free to live, work and play. +5 -4 2
