SECTION IV. COMMUNITY RESPONSIBILITIES
Community performance will be evaluated based on each community's 2003 Annual Report and
a community's achievement of the criteria below. The County may adjust payments to a
community in the following year based on the evaluation of its performance for the current year.
Dakota County reserves the right to request documentation for information submitted.
A. Responsibilities for Communities and Evaluation Criteria
Communities are responsible for maintaining the level of service outlined in the Dakota
County Solid Waste Master Plan (as amended) and maintain a Targeted Community
Program that includes at least bi- weekly recyclables collection for single family and multi-
family households using a recycling container. The Targeted Community Program requires
collection of the following recyclables; newspaper, corrugated cardboard, residential office
paper, magazines, cans (food & beverage), plastic containers with a neck, and three colors
of glass. If a community does not maintain the above level of service, the County will accept
the responsibility for community recycling programs and will assess the residents of the
community for costs incurred (including the County administrative, monitoring, and public
education costs). Other community responsibilities are divided into three areas (Recycling
Operations, Solid Waste Education, and Government Leadership) and depend upon the size
of the community.
