Title
Waste Management Contract Extension - Approval
History
The Board of Trustees approved entering into a five (5) year contract with Waste Management of Illinois for the collection and removal of garbage, refuse, yard waste and recycling throughout the Village beginning November 1, 2002. Article Six (6) of the Agreement includes language which allows for a three (3) year extension to be negotiated after the initial term of the Agreement. Attached for the Board’s review is a proposal from Waste Management who has provided continued exemplary service for the entire time that they have been under contract with the Village of Orland Park. Therefore, it is recommended that Waste Management of Illinois be awarded a three (3) year extension to its existing contract starting on November 1, 2007 through October 31, 2010.
Staff recommends Option “C” for the length of the extension for the following reasons:
Every other week pickup for recycling service reduces fuel consumption, reduces loading on the Village streets and encourages co-mingling of recyclables. The 96 gallon container seems more than ample for storage volume for a two-week period of time. It has been suggested that Waste Management provide a sticker showing the dates of recycle pickup with the container.
PLEASE SAVE ATTACHMENTS. THE INFORMATION ATTACHED WILL NOT BE DUPLICATED FOR THE JULY 16, 2007, BOARD MEETING.
A NEW COVER SHEET WILL BE PROVIDED WITH THE APPROPRIATE BOARD MOTION.
