Staff reports on trash program, street assessment and fire-rescue grants
Summary
City staff updated council on trash program rollout, plans to publish a visual routing map, a street assessment underway, and a $35,000 grant awarded to the fire-rescue department for training and equipment; code compliance also reported bringing animal-control certification in-house and an $18,000 annual savings.
Staff provided operational updates: the city is publishing weekly updates on the trash program, onboarding new commercial customers, and preparing a visual mapping of acceptable pickup schedules for the public website. Staff said an assessment of the collection program will occur after three months of billing to help forecast next year'9s budgets.
On public safety, staff noted a January report with 49 calls (27 fire calls) and mutual-aid responses; a $35,000 award was secured for training and safety equipment. Code compliance reported a severe-weather disruption in January, new in-house animal-control certification for officer Jesse (which staff said will improve response times), and $18,000 in annual savings by bringing the certification in-house.
