Vote on a Request to Approve lowest bidder for Construction of Single Stream Recycling.

 

Abstract

 

Vote on a Request to Approve lowest bidder Construction of Single Stream Recycling Station.

                     

Introduction & Background: Chatham County currently has source separated recycling, where residents have to separate recyclables by type.  The Solid Waste & Recycling Division is in the process of changing to a dual stream system where the majority of recyclables can be all mixed together and glass is kept separate.  This will make recycling easier for residents and should increase the total amount of recyclables being collected.

                     

Discussion & Analysis: This was approved in the CIP FY 16 and carried over to FY 17.

                     

Budgetary Impact: Base is $398,388 but final amount is under negotiation.

                     

Recommendation: Approve lowest bid.
