Item 5f,
TO: Mayor, City Council, City Administrator
FROM: Dean Johnson, Director uf Commanity Development
DATE: December 16, 1988
SUBJ: December 20, 1988 Council Itern No. Sf.
Attached is a copy of the draft recycling"proposal" from Knutson Rubbish Service, Inc,
As I discussed earlier, I have had "pencil quotes" from several vendors on tecycling
programs. On the basis of these quotes and known costs ather cities have
experienced, I felt a contract could be negotiated with KnUtson Rubbish ihat would be
better far the City than that secured through an open bidding process. The City
Attorney has confirmed that we can negotiate this type of service. The attorney has
also reviewed the proposal with me and is in preparation of a detailed contract to b�e
executed.
The proposal has the cost breakdowns in the margin and totals $67,305.00. The total
grant allocated to the City by Dakota County is $69,814.00, leaving the City with
$2,509.00 for administrative expenses. This information has titerally come together as
I write this memo. For the sake of time (and paeket distribution), I will fargo a
written explanation of all of the details. I will offer a few comments, however.
This proposai will authorize Knutson to order the bins to be used in th� prograrn.
Knutson will receive and distribute the cont�iners and store excess contain+�rs for
future distribution. All sin�le family residences and "quad" residences will reeeive
containers fpr eurbside recycling. All apartment cornplexes (o.wners wllling) wilt
receive central recycling containers for use next to trash containers.
Curbside collecEion will be available to �,11 residences throughout the entire City on a
weekly basisl The muiti-family containers will be served as needed. Knutson will be
responsible for printing and distribution of educational/promationat materials and a11
prQgram documentation, Knutson will also aperate a commercial/industriat recycling
program.
I will explain this program in complete detail at the meeting. I knaw you wil( agre�
this is an outstanding proposa}.
