On council agenda: First reading of legislation that changes waste-recycling contractor
Ada council will consider the first reading of legislation authorizing Republic Services as the solid waste and recycling contractor for the village. The action is on the Tuesday, Sept. 15 council agenda.
On Sept. 1 council voted to accept Republic Services as the community’s new waste hauler, because its sealed bid was lower than Waste Management’s.
The contract is for three years, beginning Dec. 1, with an option to renew for another three years.
The savings? Thirty-seven cents per customer per year. Republic’s proposed monthly rate and fuel charge was $16.48. Waste Management’s was $16.84. Allen County Refuse, another bidder, priced itself out of the running at $17.34.
Several additional items are on Tuesday’s agenda. Those items are listed in the council meeting packet, which is an attachment at the bottom of this story.
