A new agreement is sought in advance of the current agreement expiration to ensure uninterrupted service. Analysis/Strategic Goals/Pro's Et Con's: Recovery from late 2018 - early 2019 market corrections due to China's ban on US imports is still underway requiring additional program support from revenue derived from garbage fees. Program costs are anticipated to be higher in the next service agreement. The RFP process will help staff make an informed recommendation to the BoCC this Fall for fee schedule adjustments to the tipping fee to fund the recycling program. Fiscal Impact/Cost Benefit Analysis: The recycling services RFP process will make the fiscal impact and cost/benefit known and may lead to cost-reducing service adjustments. Recommendation: Approve the attached RFP so that Public Works may publish it.
