ENCLOSURES:
The Department of Solid Waste respectfully requests your approval of the following emergency
purchase(s) to contract the disposal of recyclable waste collected.
The goods and/or services required herein are as a result of one or both of the following circumstance(s):
1) A public emergency (threats to health, life, welfare or safety); or
2) Convenience of the City.
Per the emergency procurement procedures as defined in Section 18-90 of the City Code, authorization to
waive the competitive bid process, albeit it is a retroactive authorization, is also requested for the
aforementioned emergency purchase if greater than $25,000.
This purchase is necessary for the following reason:
The Department of Solid Waste seeks your approval to contract with Waste Management, Inc. the disposal of
residential recycling materials due to the suspension of services by the previous vendor, who is no longer accepting
recycling loads. This disruption has created an urgent need to maintain uninterrupted recycling services for residents
and avoid potential environmental and public health concerns associated with accumulated recyclable waste. Waste
Management, Inc. has the capacity and the operational readiness to accept and process the recycling waste collected.
