Subject: First Reading: Ordinance to Award Solid Waste Services
Contract
As the City Commission is aware, the City currently has two contractors
that service the City with solid waste and recycling services - Waste
Management in Broadview/Pompano Park area and Republic Services of Florida, L.P. d/b/a All Service Refuse for the balance of the City. Both of these contracts expire on September
30, 2008. At the January 24, 2008
Commission meeting, the City Administration presented to the Commission several
scenarios which were the results of negotiating with both companies. Since we
were not able to come to agreeable terms with Waste Management, staff
recommended and the City Commission supported proposal C-1 of those scenarios.
Per proposal C-1, we were able to work out an agreement with All-Service
Refuse in which they would cover the entire City for both residential and
commercial solid waste services.
