Council authorizes RFP for solid-waste services; asks for RFP review before release
Summary
Council directed the interim city administrator to publish a request-for-proposal for municipal solid-waste collection and disposal on the TML and city websites, but asked staff to share the draft RFP with council before final publication and to allow citizen input on finalists.
Members discussed concerns about the current vendor’s service and asked that the RFP be drafted with an opportunity for council and public review. Council emphasized including franchise-fee negotiation language and publishing responses so residents can comment on finalists before the council selects a vendor.
The council motion authorized the interim administrator to advertise the RFP on the TML website and the city website, and to return the final RFP and schedule for council and public review. No selection was made at the meeting; council agreed to bring the RFP back to the next regular meeting for discussion and public input.
