Mr. Vick worked with the following committee members Larry Koonce, Karen Bostic, Pam Burney, Angel Holbert and Donna Enos. On August 13, 2002 the committee sent out the Request for Proposal (RFP) to six potential vendors that included the following contract terms: · 4 year fixed price contract · Twice a week curbside residential ''Take All" collection on Monday and Thursday · Once a week residential recycling collection service on one of the same days as solid waste is collected · Improved Customer Service requirements · Curbside Christmas tree collection · Missed collection penalties and improved pick up times for missed collections · All City owned facilities collected at no cost City Council Minutes October 14, 2002 Page 8 · Sixty free hauls of 30 yard rolloff containers for Community Clean-up programs . Improved Public Education requirement · $15,000 per year donation to the NRH Beautification Committee . Very good 'Most Favored Nations' clause · Clarification and unification of residential construction waste collection and portable toilet use · The RFP also clearly sets forth a "Not to Exceed Price" for the base proposal · Council's desire to depoliticize the process and avoid last minute proposals · Clearly set forth service terms and conditions, and the "Best and Final Offer" date Mr. Vick informed council that Community Waste Disposal, Duncan Disposal, IESI and Trinity Waste responded to the RFP.

Mr. Vick brought to the council's attention the following typographical errors within the contract. ~ Page 6, B1 - Contractor Duties and Obligations--"Hand load customers receive service twice per week." (this sentence needs to be in the commercial portion of the contract) ~ Page 20, W - The last two sentences are in reverse order. Mr. Vick advised council that the errors have been corrected. Mayor Trevino asked Mr. Vick to explain the "Favored Nations Clause". Mr. Vick informed council that the "Favored Nations Clause" pertains to Northeast Tarrant County cities served by the contractor receiving commercial and twice weekly curbside take-all and once per week recycling. If those rates, when implemented, would produce lower revenues, then the City shall be entitled to utilize such rates. COUNCILWOMAN JOHNSON MOVED TO APPROVE PU 2002-039, ORDINANCE No. 2664.
