ITEM 6: CONSIDERATION AND APPROPRIATE ACTION RELATING TO THE
AWARD OF A CONTRACT FOR THE BULK PURCHASE OF LOW
DENSITY POLYETHYLENE '
Mr Carr said that the yardwaste separation in Owasso was started as a pilot project in April
1990. The method used to collect the yardwaste is either a 90-gallon red polycart or a
yardwaste bag. In the Spring of 1992, the City began selling plastic yardwaste bags to its
customers. Many citizens utilize the polycart, however, many still prefer yardwaste bags. Bags
were last purchased in April 1996, and the supply needs to be replenished in order to get
through the upcoming growing season. Bid specifications were mailed to 12 vendors. Two bids
were received and were opened on March 24, 1997. Petoskey Plastics Inc of Petoskey, MI was
the low bidder. Dr Standridge moved, seconded by Mr Ramey, to award a contract for the
purchase of 20,000 yardwaste bags consistent with bid specifications to Petoskey Plastics Inc of
Petoskey, MI, in the amount of $2499.00, and authorization for payment.
