Excused were Terry Butler, Mark Goodman, Mark Zitelli and John Starr. Staff: Kathy Strickland, Chief Deputy Clerk Dexter Williams: Dexter said he has been picking up trash, palates, mattresses etc. in the alley behind the Brand building long enough. Dexter said he is cutting things up all the time. No one is respectful of the compactor or recycling container. On the recycling, people don't break down their boxes, they just throw them in and it jams and then they put the boxes on the side. Bill suggested possibly the trash companies need to change the combination. Dexter said the trash company picks up the trash compactor and moves the other trash to the side. At one point the city said they would come behind the trash companies and pick up the excess trash. I am dealing with mattresses and palates. The trash company is Waste Management. Staff said she will relay the message to Environmental Health to see what resolutions there are. Red Onion discussion: Andrew said the fire marshal denied 7 tables in the middle of the mall. 1. The Red Onion can go to the city council and discuss it. 2. CCLC could join and support or Andrew said he could go himself. The fire marshal said you would be stuck getting a fire truck down the mall. The Red Onion is willing to use plastic tables and chairs. Staff is to contact the city manager to discuss setting up a meeting to discuss the mall and use of public spaces. Andrew said he went to the fire board meeting and the board wouldn't overrule Ed Van Walraven.
