Purpose & Explanation
The Environment Awareness Committee (EAC) previously presented a recommendation for a new refuse and recycling program in Hudson. At the March 24, 2015 Council Workshop, Council members supported a preferred contractor refuse and recycling program. At the July 28, 2015 workshop, the EAC presented the options for services requested in the Request for Proposals. The City issued RFP's in September and issued an Addendum RFP in November which included a single (exclusive) hauler pricing. Four (4) RFP's were received in December, 2015.
On January 4, 2016, The Environmental Awareness Committee agreed to recommend Republic Services as the City's preferred refuse hauler or Kimble Companies as the City's single hauler based on the quotes submitted for Council's consideration. Refer to the attached bid tab for all pricing. Both recommended refuse haulers will adjust pricing at a maximum of 3% over the next two years of the three year contract.
