Title
Consider a resolution authorizing the Mayor to execute Amendment No. 2 to Amended and Restated Refuse Collection Contract Between City of Round Rock, Texas and Round Rock Refuse, Inc.
Body
On August 26, 2010, the City Council approved an amendment to the City Ordinance regarding the implementation of a comprehensive solid waste management and recycling program. On October 14, 2010, the City approved an Amended and Restated Refuse Collection Contract with Round Rock Refuse as the contractor to perform solid waste and recycling collection and disposal services for the City. The City has successfully worked with Round Rock Refuse since 1987 for these services.
This Amendment No. 2 has become necessary because the City now wishes to enter into a separate Contract with a Recyclable Material Facility for the processing of the City's Recyclable Material collected and delivered by Round Rock Refuse. The Contract is being amended to show a change in how the Disposal Component of the Residential Services Rate is calculated. The Disposal Cost Component will be based upon the actual disposal of the Municipal Solid Waste at the Solid Waste Facility and the delivered Recyclable Material at the Recyclable Material Facility. In addition, the revenue sharing procedure has been removed from this contract and will be included in a separate contract with WILCO Recycling.
