It
is noteworthy that the people to be considered for the study group do not
include homeowners. Do homeowners not have a stake in all this? Your
resolution says "stabilize housing for all in
Saint Paul" yet only landlords, renters, advocates and
"experts" are included. Hmmm. What are homeowners to think? |

The
new trash program is giving haulers a $2-$3 million-dollar yearly windfall by
requiring residents who currently share to have their own service and for
landlord to provide each rental unit its own cart. The Council is putting the
haulers' interest first, supposedly in the name of helping small family
businesses. Only one of the city's 11 licensed haulers is a family business
LOCATED in St. Paul. The other small haulers are located in
Hugo, West St. Paul, Mendota Hts, Inver Grove
Heights, Newport and Forest Lake. Residents first! |

This
amounts to one more "unfunded mandate" that ***umes
tenants (but not homeowners) are incompetent and unable to figure out how to
register to vote. Good grief! If the City/County/State cannot get voter
registration information into the hands of potential voters, it should not
fall only on Landlords to save the m***es. To carry
this proposed ordinance's thinking to a logical conclusion, EVERYBODY should
be forced to distribute voter registration information --- realtors (at time
of closing), employers (at time of hiring), attorneys (upon meeting a new
client), city council members (at neighborhood meet-and-greets, and at all
public hearings in council chambers), trash haulers (once a year to leave a
hang-tag on every trash cart), restaurant owners (when customers pay for
meals), etc., etc., etc. THERE IS FAR TOO MUCH "MICROMANAGEMENT" IN
TODAY'S CITY GOVERNMENT. |

REGARDING
"Skyrocketing Rents" --- Please note that St. Paul's new "NO
SHARING" trash contract (negotiated with almost zero public transparency
and little or no opportunity for public input) will raise rents by $15 to $20
PER MONTH per apartment for more than a few tenants in 2-, 3-, and 4-unit
buildings. This time, it is NOT the landlords' fault. Local politicians,
bureaucrats and little-guy trash haulers are 100-percent responsible for
mandating this unreasonable increase. PLEASE DO NOT ADOPT THIS ORDINANCE AS
CURRENTLY WRITTEN. PLEASE ALLOW "SHARING" OF CARTS AND GIVE
SIGNIFICANT CREDIT FOR "ZERO WASTERS" WHO GENERATE LITTLE OR NO TRASH.
