Re: Resolution 16-08, 2009 Solid Waste Contract Extension
Summary
Memo
The 2008 solid waste contract extension expires December 31, 2008. This contract provides for
the option of extending the contract one additional year. Beginning in 2010, solid waste removal
services must be rebid.
The City of Dublin is part of a solid waste consortium consisting of seven other villages,
townships, and cities. The volume of customers (households) within the consortium encourages
economy of scale pricing, which results in a lower cost per household for refuse/recycling
collection and disposal.
The Solid Waste Authority of Central Ohio (SWACO) pays for the legal services associated with
consortium contract documents and other legal sen~ice requirements. As a result, the law firm of
Eastman & Smith has completed negotiations with Rumpke to extend the cun-ent solid waste
contract for one additional year at a cost of $14.40 per household each month. The current (2008)
price is $13.98 per household each month. This equates to a 2009 increase of 3 percent.
The City of t~'orthington entered into a contract for solid waste collection and disposal services
late in 200b. Worthington's 2007 cost per household each month was $14.98 with provisions for
possible increases in price during 2008 and 2009. The City of Westerville opened solid waste
collection and disposal bids on May 9, 2007. They received one bid at $15.90 a month per
household. Upper Arlington opened bids late in 2007. Inland Sei-~~ice Corporation provided the
lowest and best bid at approximately $14.39 per household per month for years 2008 and 2009.
This amount has been calculated based on adjustments for recycling stream revenues.
Recommendation
Staff recommends Council approve Resolution 16-08 allowing the City Manager to enter into a.
2009 solid «~~aste contract extension «~~ith Rumpke at $14.40 per month per household.
