Dover awards three-year organized garbage collection contract to LRS

Dover City Council · February 6, 2025

Summary

The Dover City Council unanimously voted Feb. 6 to award a three-year organized garbage-collection contract to LRS under the city’s request-for-proposals process; no contract dollar amount was specified in the meeting minutes.

The Dover City Council voted unanimously on Feb. 6 to award a three-year organized garbage-collection contract to LRS under the terms set out in the city’s request for proposals.

Mayor Dave Iseminger reopened a discussion that had been tabled the previous month about organized garbage collection and told those in attendance how the city reached the point of selecting a winning bid. Council Member Jaime Putzier moved to award the contract to LRS; Council Member Chelsie Kiekbusch seconded the motion, which carried unanimously.

The council’s action formalizes selection of a single vendor for curbside service for a three-year period, per the RFP and the bid submitted by LRS. The minutes do not record a contract dollar amount or the start date for the service; those details were not specified during the meeting.

Because the contract was awarded by formal motion and recorded unanimous approval, the city will proceed to finalize contract documents and scheduling with LRS under the terms of the RFP. The council did not discuss any immediate changes to routes or rate adjustments during the meeting.

The meeting then moved on to routine consent items and public comments; the council adjourned at 8:15 PM.
