Background Information:
In 2009, City Council approved the first contract with Green Guy Recycling to open a 24/7 recycle drop off facility, provide recycle services to City facilities and recycling at specific special events. There were four (4) one-year extensions and an annual CPI increase on the contract.
In 2014, City Council approved the second contract for a five (5) year period with Green Guy Recycling after going out to bid. This second contract allowed for two (2) additional 5-year extensions. Through the first five (5) years of the contract, additional materials such as tires, televisions, CRT screens, and Freon appliances were added to allow a safe disposal option for residents. Nuisance vehicles for Code Compliance to handle was added as a flat rate fee, as long as there is a title to the vehicle.
In 2019, the first of the 5-year extensions and a 2.5% flat rate increase was approved by Council. At this time, the City is requesting approval of the second 5-year extension, which includes the flat rate increase of the previously approved 2.5%. If approved, the contract will end on June 30, 2029.
