Mr Carr said that in July 1993 the OPWA Trustees approved a contract with Browning -Ferris
Industries for the collection and disposal of commercial refuse. The contract was for one year,
beginning on July 1, 1993, with a provision for one year extensions. Extensions were approved
in May of 1994 and April of 1995. Staff believes that the services should be rebid after three
years. Bid documents were prepared and bids were advertised, with four bids being received.
Following staff review and comparison with the current contract, a recommendation was made
to award the contract for commercial refuse service to Waste Management Inc of Tulsa, OK for
the period July 1, 1996 through June 30, 1997. The projected total contract amount is
$176,024.04. Mr Helm moved, seconded by Mr Ramey, to approve a contract with Waste
Management Inc for commercial refuse service for the period July 1, 1995 through June 30,
1996 per the submitted bid; and authorization for payment.
