CONSENT ITEM – 5D City of Arden Hills City Council Meeting for January 12, 2015 P:\Planning\Recycling & Garbage\2014\RFP_Recycling Services\CC Packet_(1-12-15) - Contract Extension Addendum Page 1 of 2 MEMORANDUM DATE: January 12, 2015 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members Patrick Klaers, City Administrator FROM: Ryan Streff, City Planner SUBJECT: Recycling Contract Addendum – Eureka Recycling Contract Extension Action Requested Approve the addendum to the Recycling Services Contract with Eureka Recycling in order to extend the current contract from March 1, 2015, to May 3, 2015. Background During the City Council Work Session on December 15, 2014, the Council was informed of the extension request made by Republic Services. As you are aware, the existing recycling contract with Eureka Recycling is set to expire on March 1, 2015, unless an extension is granted by the City Council. As proposed, the new contract with Republic Services is anticipated to begin on May 4, 2015, in order to allow additional time for cart delivery and distribution. Republic Services has informed staff that a more efficient transition form recycling bins to recycling carts can be accomplished if the contract with Eureka Recycling is extended for two (2) additional months. Eureka Recycling has agreed to sign the contract addendum indicating their willingness to extend their contract with the City for this additional time to cover the gap in recycling services before the new contract with Republic Services begins in May. The addendum to the contract would not impact the cost, frequency of pickup, or service routes. The attached addendum to the Recycling Services Contract with Eureka Recycling indicates the extension from March 1, 2015, to May 3, 2015.
