ENCLOSURES
It is respectfully recommended that the City Commission adopt the
attached resolution ratifying the award to Kostmayer Construction
Company (Kostmayer), in the amount of $282,750 for a one -month
period, and for any additional period as deemed necessary under
the existing price and conditions, to operate three (3) air -
controlled burn units to eliminate the large volume of debris
collected from City streets after Hurricane Andrew and being
stored at City's Virginia Key facility.
The Department of General Services Administration and Solid Waste
let out informal bids for the above service and ten (10) bids
were submitted, under Bid No. HA 005. Subsequently an award was
made to the low bidder, the Lowell Dunn Company. However, after
setting up operations, the company's performance was deemed
unsatisfactory and not in accordance with Dade County's
Department of Environmental Regulations (DERM) standards.
Therefore, the City terminated Lowell Dunn's services.
Kostmayer has been operating two (2) burn units on the same site
and is the only firm which is operating in compliance with the
County's standards; however, the two units are insufficient to
handle the volume of debris burning that still remains at
Virginia Key, as well as the debris still being collected from
City streets.
Since the price originally quoted by Kostmayer in its initial
quotation to the City is approximately $700 lower per burn unit
than the second lowest bidder under HA 005, it seems appropriate,
more cost effective and efficient to expand and continue the
t services of Kostmayer Construction Company, under the existing
price and conditions.

SUBJECT Finding of Emergency
Due to Hurricane Andrew
FROM Cesar H.
Od REFERENCES
City Manage '•';
ENCLOSURES.
On August 24, 1992, the City of Miami suffered the wrath of a devastating
hurricane, Hurricane Andrew. in order to eliminate immediate threats to the
life, health and safety of residents and employees, and eliminate immediate
threats to undamaged property, as well as ensure economic recovery to the City
and the community, I have made a written finding of a valid public emergency.
Based on this finding, formal competitive sealed bid and selection procedures
will be waived for the procurement of services, equipment, goods and/or
materials that may be required to provide immediate burden relief and disaster
assistance for the City and the community for the purpose of providing for the
health, safety and welfare of its citizens and employees.
In addition, the City's insurance will not cover any loss of business
resulting from delays in the normal procurement procedures; therefore, it is
necessary to waive formal competitive bid and selection procedures and utilize
the informal bid process instead.
