Explanation
1. BACKGROUND
The Division of Refuse Collection 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 March 24, 2011, (bid #SA003758) and has established a multi-year universal term contract with Farmer's Refuse & Trucking Inc, for their purchase (0622-2011). This ordinance authorizes the purchase of eight cubic yard containers, replacement parts, and tools required for a total cost of $34,702.37.

The division intends to purchase a like number (more or less) of these containers in each of the next two years.

Farmer's Refuse & Trucking Inc. is not debarred according to the Excluded Party Listing System of the Federal Government or prohibited from being awarded a contract according to the Auditor of State Unresolved Findings for Recovery Certified Search.

2. CONTRACT COMPLIANCE
Farmer's Refuse & Trucking Inc. contract compliance number is 311293640 and expires 11/16/12

3. FISCAL IMPACT
Funds for this purchase are available within the Refuse G.O. Bonds Fund. This legislation transfers monies within Fund 703, amends the 2011 Capital Improvements budget as appropriate, and authorizes the purchase and the expenditure therefore.
