The parties shall enter into negotiations in good faith and any new revenue sharing agreement shall be reduced to writing in the form of an amendment to the contract. 6.3 Other Any other mutually agreed upon charges or credits. 7. RFP and Contractor's Proposal The contents of the City's RFP (as of Sept. 24, 2007) and the Contractor's proposal are part of the contractual obligations and are incorporated by reference into this contract. If any provision of the contract is in conflict with the referenced RFP or proposal, the contract shall take precedent. GENERAL REQUIREMENTS FOR ALL COLLECTIONS The following general requirements are pertinent to all recycling collections (i.e., both curbside recycling collection and multi-family recycling collection services). However, the City acknowledges that collection service frequencies and other factors will vary between residential and multi family collection programs. S. Missed collections The Contractor shall have a duty to pick up missed recycling collections. The Contractor agrees to pick up all missed collections on the same day the Contractor receives notice of a missed collection, provided notice is received by the Contractor before 11:00 a.m. on a business day. With respect to all notices of a missed collection received after 11:00 a.m. on a business day, the Contractor agrees to pick up that missed collection before 6:00 p.m. on the following business day. 9. Severe weather The Contractor may postpone recycling collections due to severe weather at the sole discretion of the Contractor. "Severe Weather" shall include, but shall not be limited to those cases in which the temperature at 6:00 a.m. is minus twenty (-20) degrees Fahrenheit or colder. If collections are so postponed, the Contractor shall notify the City. Upon postponement, collection will be made on a day agreed upon between the Contractor and the City. 10. Collection hours and days The City requires all such collections to begin no sooner than 7 a.m. and shall be complete by 6 p.m. Collection of recyclable materials from households north of 1-694 will take place every Wednesday and households south of 1-694 will take place every Tuesday. During pre- selected holiday weeks, collection days will take place one day later. The Contractor may request one time City authorization of exceptions to these time and day restrictions (e.g., pursuant to the "Severe Weather" section 9 above). The Contractor must request such exception prior to the requested collection event and specify the date, time and reason for the exception. 8
