2025 through February 28, 2026 and authorize the Mayor to sign and execute

Citywide 
 
Joe Bennett, City Administrator, provided the following background: 
  
The City went through the RFP process in 2022 to get bids on providing Commercial 
Sanitation service to the City. Prior to that process, the City had partnered with 
Advanced Disposal (now Waste Management) beginning in March 2010. The result of 
the process in 2022 was that the City would continue the partnership with Waste 
Management under a new contract through February 28, 2025. As a part of that 
agreement, the partnership could be renewed with mutual consent of both parties. 
Staff is recommending staying with Waste Management as our provider for the period 
between March 1, 2025 through February 28, 2026 with plans to go through the RFP 
process again to ensure we are meeting the needs of the City and the needs of our 
commercial businesses.
