the possibility of joining multiple PACE programs instead of being limited to just one. It was decided that this would be beneficial to do. The ordinance will be <br />written up with multiple PACE programs. The GPC recommends that the <br />economic development department be responsible for the PACE program once <br />established. b) Yard Waste options – Tabled until August meeting. <br /> <br />c) Commercial Recycling ordinance update – Richard and Scott are still working on <br />this. d) Olive Streetlights/Northeast Neighborhood street lights – Jenny needs to review <br />the data that was compiled by Janna White regarding spacing and light types for <br />these lights. <br /> e) Website – Tabled until August meeting. <br />f) Monarch Waystation update – Dianne indicated the waystation was weeded, it <br />did not require watering, and is being maintained excellently. <br /> 7. Reports a) Ecosystems/Habitat: Dianne Benjamin was happy to see the Bring Conservation <br />Home article in the ROARS. She also announced the U. City in Bloom Native <br />Plant Landscaping Open House on August 29th from 5-7pm. This is in <br />collaboration with St. Louis Audubon Bring Conservation Home. Dianne also discussed the 1994 President’s Executive Order on Beneficial Landscaping specific to Environmentally and Economically Beneficial Practices <br />on Federal Landscaped Grounds. Perhaps it is possible for the City to focus on <br />this practice for City Properties. Jenny will check with staff about this, as well as <br />the City’s rules about what U City in Bloom should plant. Janna will check with neighboring municipalities if there are rules regarding native planting. <br />b) Water/Stormwater: Richard Juang has reached out to several different <br />organizations, like the river Des Peres Coalition, to find out more information <br />regarding water/stormwater. It was suggested that Richard contact Karla Wilson, a private water quality consultant and the manager of the Deer Creek Watershed Alliance. Jenny will also connect Richard to Megan Fuhler who is the City staff <br />responsible for water/stormwater issues. Questions arose about gutter <br />disconnection for homes and businesses that are connected to the sewer <br />system. Jenny will find out more information about this. c) Council Liaison Report: Councilmember Kraft was concerned about losing the <br />expertise from commission member once terms have commenced. This may be <br />avoided by having advisory commission members or subcommittees. <br /> 8. Closing Round – No reports. <br />9. Adjournment: 8:01 pm <br />www.ucitymo.org
