Explanation

The Refuse Collection Division requires eight (8) cubic yard containers with which to collect refuse from multi-family dwellings and other applications where the utilization of such a container is more efficient and less costly than utilizing 90-gallon or 300-gallon containers and/or is dictated by spatial considerations. In instances where 8 cubic yard containers will replace existing 90 and 300-gallon containers, the change-out will provide for more refuse capacity and serve to improve the cleanliness of neighborhood alleys. The Purchasing Office opened formal competitive bids for eight cubic yard containers on May 29, 2003, (bid #SA000447BGB) and is in the process of establishing a multi-year universal term contract for their purchase. This ordinance authorizes the purchase of thirty (30) of these eight cubic yard containers at a cost of $831.00 per container or a total cost of $24,930.00. The division intends to purchase a like number [more or less] of these containers in each of the next two years.

Emergency action is requested to fulfill promises extended to neighborhoods in a timely manner.

Fiscal Impact: Funds for this purchase are available within the 1995, 1999 Voted Refuse Collection Fund from two projects: facility expansion land acquisition (a completed project) ($3,600.01) and mechanized collection system ($21,329.99). This legislation transfers monies within the first project to the second, amends the 2002 Capital Improvements budget as appropriate, and authorizes the purchase and the expenditure therefore.
