DISCUSSION <br /> <br />CASE #~, <br /> <br />REGARDING REFUSE SERVICE TO MUNICIPAL FACILITIES <br /> By: Jessie Hart, Finance Officer <br /> <br />Background: <br /> <br />During the past several weeks, Building Maintenance Worker Dan Bray has been obtaining quotes from <br />commercial refuse haulers licensed in the City of Ramsey to provide refuse service to the Municipal Center, <br />Public Works Facilities and Central Park. Each hauler was asked to provide a quote based on our existing level <br />of service which appears to be adequate. <br /> <br />Our current hauler is Waste Management of Blaine and we received quotes from Walter's, Gallagher's Service, <br />Inc., and Pretzel Sanitation. Each hauler was requested to bid on waste containers that had wheels and locks and <br />maintain, at a minimtun, our current level of pick-up. Each hauler would provide recycled tonnage information <br />on a quarterly basis. The quotes were received as follows: <br /> <br /> Waste Gallagher's Pretzel <br />Level of Service Management Waiter's Service Sanitation <br /> <br />City Hall - <br /> 2 Yard Trash <br /> (1 x weekly) $68.00/mo. $63.00/mo. $55.00/mo. $61.70/mo. <br /> 2 Yard Recycle <br /> (1 x weekly) $36.00/mo. $20.00/mo. N/C $15.00/mo. <br /> <br />Central Park - <br /> 2 Yard Trash <br /> (1 x weekly) <br /> <br />$41.00/mo. $69.50/mo $55.00/mo. $61.70/mo. <br /> <br />Public Works - <br /> 1.5 Yard Trash <br /> (1 x weekly) <br /> <br />$80.00/mo. $58.00/mo. $50.00/mo $56.82/mo. <br /> <br />Total Estimated <br /> Annual Cost <br /> <br />$2,700.00/yr. <br /> <br />$2,526.00/mo. <br /> <br />$1,920.00/yr. <br /> <br />$2,342.64/yr. <br /> <br />The above costs do not include environmental fees charged by haulers or applicable sales taxes. In order to <br />remain comparable, the above assumes weekly collection year round for Central Park even though some hauler's <br />bid a per pick-up price for the months of September'through May. <br /> <br />Staff Recommendation: <br /> <br />Staff recommends providing Waste Management with a 30 notice of termination in service and contracting with <br />Gallagher's Service Inc. to provide refuse services to City Hall, Central Park and the Public Works facility <br />beginning September 1, 1995. <br /> <br />Committee Action: <br /> <br />Recommend Council approval of termination of refuse service with Waste Management of Blaine effective <br />August 31, 1995 and begin refuse service with Gallagher's Service Inc. effective September 2, 1995. <br /> <br />Reviewed by: <br />City Administrator <br />Finance Officer <br /> <br />Copies Distributed to: <br />Building Maintenance Worker <br />City Engineer <br />Public Works Supervisor <br />Parks/Utilities Supervisor <br /> <br />FC: 07/25/95 <br /> <br /> <br />
