Memo- Recycling Program Update•
CITY OF HOPKINS
MEMORANDUM
DATE: April 3, 1991
TO: City Manager, Mayor and City Council
FROM: Kathy Max, Recycling Coordinator
SUBJECT: Recycling Program Update
I have reviewed the 1990 Recycling Program and listed accomplishments along
with 1991 goals.
Additional funding requirements have increased time allocated to recycling
in 1991. At this time the Public Works Secretary position is divided with
60% time spent on P.W. administration and 40% spent on the recycling
program.
Some changes in the County Funding Policy include; 16% abatement for 1991
required for 80% funding, 18% abatement for 1992 required for 80% funding,
County involvment in contract renewals, additional materials required for
collection, development and implementation of a Source Reduction Plan,
Specification Policy requiring consideration of recycled products for use
• in city projects, and some reporting requirements.
The 1991 budget could experience a decrease in the Refuse Utility Fund
balance by up to $22,000 in 1991 depending on actual 1991 expenditures and
abatement percent achieved.
Assuming that our tonnages will not decrease in 1991 the minimum percent
reimbursement would be 60% and the maximum financial impact should not
exceed $22,000 (based on the 1991 Grant Application).
We acheived over 12% abatement in 1990, 820 tons recycled out of the 6439
tons of our residential waste stream. In 1991 we will have to increase the
tons recycled to 1030 tons, a 211 ton increase. In 1992 we will have to
increase the tons recycled to 1160 tons, a 340 ton increase from. the 1990
requirement. If we acheive the additional 211 tons in 1991 our increase
for 1992 will be only 129 tons.
Given the increased abatement goals for 1991 and 1992, greater efforts will
need to be made in order to increase the tonnages collected. One area
which was not significantly represented in 1990 was multiple family
buildings. Hopefully the mandatory recycling ordinance will increase our
tonnages collected from those buildings.
Things that could be considered to increase recycled tonnages are; increase
publicity (more mailings, special collections of tires or batteries, use of
cable TV), and make stronger efforts to locate private citizen recycling
programs (i.e. churches, schools, neighborhood associations).

The application will not be processed without this documentation.
The City of HOPKINS located at 1010 FIRST STREET SOUTH, HOPKINS MN 55343
implement source- separation programs for recydables during the period 01 / 01 / 91 to 12 /31 /9
Required:
A brief description of your program is required in the space below (do not attach additional pages).
Attach:
o Executed copies of contracts for collection, processing and marketing of recyciables collected curbside and at drop - ,
centers.
o Itemized breakdown of any information presented in summary form on this application.
o Solid Waste Source Reduction Plan.
The City of Hopkins extended its contract with Waste Management on September 4, 1990 to
provide curbside and alley pick -up of recyclable materials through June 30, 1993. The cost for
weekly collection of newspapers, metal corns, glass, corrugated cardboard, and plastic; milk,
water, pop and laundry detergent bottles is 52.30 per household per month. This program
serviced approximately 2780 households through 1990 and is expected to add approximately
500 townhouse units throughout 1991. This continues a curbside collection service established
in February 1989 and operated by contract and city forces through 1990.
The City of Hopkins will continue to provide a drop off recycling center for newspapers, metal
cans, glass, cardboard, and plastic through a joint effort with the City of Minnetonka.
In an effort to increase our recycling effort Hopkins passed a mandatory recycling ordinance in
July of 1990. On January 1, 1991 for multiple - family dwellings and July 1, 1991 for commercial,
industrial, and institutional buildings in Hopkins it is mandatory that recyclable material which
accumulates on the premise be collected separately from regular refuse.
Yard waste will continue to be collected weekly on a call -in basis from April 15 through October
31 by City crews. During the month of November a city wide leaf pick -up is conducted. The
yard waste will be delivered to City or County designated compost or landspread sites.
Beginning August 6, 1990 a cash prize drawing was initiated on a weekly basis. $50.00 is given
to the resident whose name is drawn after it has been determined that the resident had their
recycling out during the week their name is drawn. In the event that they did not have their
recycling out, two names are drawn the following weeks until the money is awarded. A
maximum of two names are drawn each week.
City employees have the opportunity to recycle office paper, newspaper, glass bottles, metal
cans and corrugated cardboard in municipal buildings.

INTRODUCTION
CITY OF HOPKINS
SOLID WASTE SOURCE REDUCTION PLAN
The City of Hopkins has developed the following Solid Waste
Source Reduction Plan which will investigate options for solid
waste source reduction for waste generated in City buildings.
Part I - Solid Waste Source Reduction Goals
o eliminate unnecessary purchases altogether;
o reduce the amount of waste generated;
o purchase products with longer more useful lives;
o purchase environmentally friendly products (products made
from recyclable or recycled materials); or
o investigate new uses for materials before they are thrown
away or recycled.
o educate employees on source reduction techniques
Part II - Program Components
The Recycling Coordinator will research options for incorporating
the six goals listed above into reducing, reusing, and recycling
decisions made within the City of Hopkins buildings.
The following practices will be defined and promoted to employees
in an effort to begin immediately to reduce the amount of waste
generated and help conserve energy.
o double sided copying of documents
o bring and use a reusable coffee mug at work
o maintain central filing systems, to eliminate duplications
o keep mailing lists up to date
o use bulletin boards as a central announcement system
A section in the monthly employee newsletter will be devoted to
addressing these source reduction activities.
The waste stream at all city buildings will be reviewed and
analyzed annually for new source reduction opportunities.
Whenever possible new practical and attainable source reduction
options will be implemented.
Training sessions on solid waste source reduction for city
employees will be made available.
Efforts to measure the impact of source reduction activities on
the waste stream will be made and recorded.
Part III. Reporting to the County
When filing our Semi - Annual and Annual Reports to the County we
will report out source reduction activities in the appropriate
section supplied by the County.

In 1990 the City of Hopkins recycled over 613 tons of newspaper, 40
tons of metal cans, 135 tons of glass, 20 tons of cardboard and 11
tons of plastic. This abated over 12% of our residential waste stream
from landfills and incinerators. When recycled yard waste (636 tons)
and brush (126 tons) are added, our total abatement is over 24 %.
Reaching over 10% abatement through recycling of newspaper, metal
cans, glass, cardboard and plastic, qualifies the city for 80% funding
of its eligible recycling program costs from Hennepin County. This
funding has helped us to avoid increases in the refuse utility rate by
avoided waste disposal costs and has helped to subsidize our
recycling program. Through recycling we are saving our natural
resources and decreasing the amount of wastes that we send to
landfills and incinerators.
RECYCLING
...make it second nature!
HOPKINS 1990 RECYCLING RESULTS
Recycling is separating items in
our garbage which can be reused or.
reclaimed. Glass, metal, paper,
plastic, motor oil and other
recyclables can be collected and
used to make new products. It is
estimated that recycling could
reduce our landfilling of garbage as
much as 25 percent. It also lowers
the cost of manufacturing new
products by conserving energy and
the use of virgin materials.
WASTE REDUCTION
Waste reduction is where we can
each make a difference b y
creating waste in the first place.
This means from consumer to
products
we can reuse
manufacturer, increase
in their e, original form, used
pt life,
in manufacturing and packaging and
change buying and consumption habits
so less waste is created.
t`ed. products
You can help by atd
which have minimal packaging,
products in refillable or returnable
containers: buying goods in bulk and
carrying your own reusable
container: and using longer lasting,
repairable goods and equipment.
Reduce waste by preventing it from
even happening.
COMPOSTING
Yard waste such as leaves, grass
clippings and brush accounts for
nearly nine percent of our househotd
waste. An easy way to reduce thi
waste and keep collection rnot i p
check, is to recycle yard re! use'
other organic wastes by composting.
Composting turns these wastes into
a valuable resource. When added to
gardens, compost loosens heavy
soils, improves plant root growth
and helps hold water and nutrients
where plants can use them.
Leaving grass clippings on the
yard also enriches the grass and
eliminates the need for disposal.
There is a variety of educational
material available on composting.
Contact your county extension agent
or recycling coordinator for more
information.

REUSABLE PRODUCTS AND
MATERIALS
Buying reusable products and
materials not only creates less
garbage, but also saves us money.
For instance, rechargeable
flashlight batteries, cloth napkins
and razors with replaceable blades
can be used over and over. Gift
wrapping paper can be saved and used
again for smaller packages. Use
returnable containers for milk, pop
and other beverages.
