ENCLOSURES:
It is respectfully recommended that the City Commission adopt the
attached resolution authorizing the City Manager to cancel
Invitation for Bid No. 94-95-045, to provide residential garbage,
trash and recycling services, the collection and disposal of waste
illegally dumped on City streets, rights -of -way and property, and
the cleanup after special events held in the City of Miami.
BACKGROUND
On January 10, 1995, Invitations for Bids were mailed to
approximately twenty-five (25) companies, in accordance with
Resolution No. 94-547, which authorized the City Manager to issue
solicitations for the above stated services. The intent of the
solicitation was to determine if the City could realize any savings
in its Solid Waste operations.
Subsequently, the Laborer's International Union of North America
ratified an agreement with the City of Miami which will
significantly reduce the operating expenses of GSA/SW Department's
Solid Waste Division to $16,000,000.
Based on the ratification, it is recommended that Invitation for
Bid No. 94-95-045 be cancelled, as permitted in Section 18-52.7 of
the City Code.
