L <br />MINUTES OF THE REGULAR ORONO CITY COUNCIL <br />MEETING HELD ON MARCH 23, 1998 <br />(#6 - West Hennepin Recycling Commission Report - Continued) <br />Kroeger said the cities she has spoken with thus far have all voiced their recommendation <br />to continue with the program. Jabbour agreed with continuing the program. All Council <br />members agreed. <br />Kroeger reported that since the joint powers agreement in 1988 and 1989, a reserve fund <br />has grown. The Commission would like to distribute the excess to the group cities. ^ <br />Based on the number of household accounts since 1989 in the City of Orono, Orono's <br />share of the reserves equals $8,113. Kroeger presented City Administrator Moorse with <br />the check for that amount and asked that the fiinds be used for recycling. <br />Jabbour recognized the recent award given to Kroeger as a Friend of the Park for her <br />efforts in maintaining Bederwood Park. <br />PLANNING COMMISSION COMMENTS <br />Planning Commissioner Stoddard had no comments at this time. <br />PUBLIC COMMENTS <br />John Dalbec, 1565 Orono Oaks Drive, asked the Council to review the housing of horses <br />on the Smith property.

He asked what prcKess <br />Dalbec would be required to follow for a future review of this issue. Moorse indicated <br />this may be similar to an administrative appeal of a staff decision.
