Police Jury recommends Waste Management of Louisiana for residential solid waste contract
Summary
Staff recommended awarding the parish's major residential solid waste collection and disposal contract to Waste Management of Louisiana; the jury accepted the recommendation and carried the motion after remarks praising staff and the procurement process.
Parish staff recommended awarding the residential solid waste collection and disposal contract to Waste Management of Louisiana, and the Police Jury accepted the recommendation. Mister Boland (speaker 8) thanked public-works staff and described the procurement as a lengthy, thorough process: "This contract, I think you know, it is 1 of the biggest and most important contracts that you enter into over the years." After brief remarks and a motion to award the contract (mover: Mister Markantel; second: Mister Lewis), the jury carried the motion with no recorded objection.
The speaker also acknowledged the work of public works staff (Alan and Jade) and thanked vendors that submitted proposals. The meeting record does not include the contract's term length, specific pricing, or a recorded vote tally by individual juror names; staff will proceed with contract award formalities consistent with parish procurement rules.
