Explanation
The Refuse Collection Division utilizes 90-gallon containers in its mechanized collection system. These containers are distributed to new residences and are also used for replacement and in-fill purposes. The division also requires replacement parts for containers that are not covered by warranties. This legislation authorizes the Finance Director to establish a purchase order for the purchase of 90-gallon refuse containers and container parts for the Refuse Collection Division per the terms and conditions of an existing citywide contract as follows:

Toter, Incorporated (contract #FL001039 expiring February 28, 2006) (total $345,000.00)
Quantity and Item Purchased / Extended Cost
7,900 (more or less) 90-gallon containers / $333,775.00
[lot] 90-gallon container lids, wheel sets, fasteners, etcetera (more or less) / $11,225.00

Toter, Incorporated's contract compliance number is 56-1362422 and expires January 16, 2007.

This ordinance has been submitted as an emergency in order to ensure an interrupted supply of these containers. An adequate supply of containers is necessary to supply new home construction as well as to replace containers that may have been damaged or worn out.
Fiscal Impact: The Refuse Collection Division budgeted $10.1 million in the 2004 Capital Improvements Budget for refuse collection vehicles and containers. All of these funds are either expended or encumbered. This expense can be accommodated within the 1995, 1999 Voted Refuse Collection Fund, mechanized collection project, by appropriating and transferring $345,000.00 within the Special Income Tax Fund. This funding method is a temporary measure and this amount will be restored to the Special Income Tax Fund subsequent to the next note/bond sale for refuse collection equipment.
