JOINT POWERS AGREEMENT WITH DAKOTA COUNTY
FOR RESIDENTIAL ORGANICS DROP-OFF SITE
Proposed Action
Staff recommends adoption of the following motion: Move to approve Joint Powers Agreement
with Dakota County to operate a residential organics drop-off site.
Overview
The City and Dakota County are partnering to construct and operate a residential organics
recycling drop-off facility. The drop-off site will be located at the Lakeville Water Treatment
Facility (near the RV Dump Stations) and constructed with City Project 19-01. The Joint Powers
Agreement (JPA) establishes City and County project responsibilities and cost participation.
Primary Issues to Consider
• The City Council approved a JPA with the County to operate a residential organic drop
off-site on April 15, 2019. A minor revision to Paragraph 6.1, clarifying the County’s
reimbursement allocation between construction costs and operation costs, is included in
this version. There is no change to the City’s estimated net cost or the County’s total
reimbursement amount.
• The City is the lead agency; therefore, the total estimated project cost (both City and
County share) of construction and operating costs is reflected in this memo. The project
costs include infrastructure construction costs and six (6) years of operating costs (or until
curbside organics collection is available to residents). The County will reimburse the City
100% of the project costs, excluding lighting costs. The City’s estimated net cost is $3,500.
