Ratifying, Approving and
Confirming an Emergency
Ordinance for Chapter 22
Amendments to Reflect the
New Franchise Agreement
The Department of Solid Waste respectfully requests your approval and action of the
Miami City Commission by a 4/5ths affirmative vote, ratifying, approving and
confirming your finding of an emergency ordinance, with amendments, to reflect changes
to the new Franchise Agreement and subsequent amendments to Chapter 22.
Pursuant to Resolution No. 04-0496, adopted on July 22, 2004, the City Commission
approved the selection of the qualified firms to provide commercial solid waste hauling
and disposal services within the City of Miami, approved the form of Franchise
Agreements for said services, and authorized the City Manager to execute Franchise
Agreements with qualified providers for a new Franchise Agreement period to commence
October 1, 2004 for solid waste collection and disposal services.
Resolution No. 04-0496 stated that the selection of qualified firms to provide commercial
solid waste hauling and disposal services was contingent upon the City's amending its
code for the granting of franchises for commercial solid waste collection for a five-year
contract period. The purpose of this Ordinance is to set forth changes to Chapter 22
necessary to accomplish the purposes for which the RFQ was issued and reflected in the
new Franchise Agreements for such new contract period.
As a result of enormous hurricane activity during the month of September and a need to
mobilize in an efficient and expeditious manner to ensure pre and post debris removal
this legislative process was delayed.
Your favorable approval of this emergency action is sought.
Approved/Disapproved.:....
