EPO-SPD-JA-01102019-001.A1- Amend Council Motion No. 2019-0025, passed January 16, 2019 to increase the total amount from $4,562,514.60 to $5,352,514.60 for additional recycling collection services for the Southeast Service Center routes for the Solid Waste Management Department.
Specific Explanation:
The Director of the Solid Waste Management Department and the Chief Procurement Officer recommend that City Council approve an amendment to Council Motion No. 2019-0025 to increase the total amount from $4,562,514.60 to $5,352,514.60 to the emergency purchase order issued to Texas Pride Disposal Solutions, LLC for additional recycling collection services for the Southeast Service Center, subject to approval and finalization by the City Legal Department of additional terms, scopes of work, and other contractual documents deemed necessary for the Solid Waste Management Department (SWMD).
On January 16, 2019 by Council Motion No.2019-0025 City Council approved an Emergency Purchase Order in the total amount of $4,562,514.60 issued to Texas Pride Disposal Solutions, LLC, for the Northwest Service Center for collection of 10 daily recycling routes. The SWMD is requesting 5 (five) additional recycling routes for the Southeast Service Center for the collection of green recyclable containers for residential customers daily, on the same day that solid waste (black container) is collected at an additional cost of $790,000.00. Standard service is one 96-gallon capacity cart.
The standard collection location for containers is curbside. Collections shall be made ONLY from city provided customer address route list.
This recommendation was made pursuant to Chapter 252, Section 252.022 (a) (2) “a procurement necessary to preserve and protect the public health and safety of the municipality’s residents” of the Local Government Code for exempted procurements.
MWBE Participation:
OBO approves the waiver of an MWBE goal on this procurement because, as per Chapter 15 of the Code of Ordinances, a waiver is appropriate when a public or administrative emergency exists which requires the goods or services to be provided with unusual immediacy.
Hire Houston First:
The proposed contract requires compliance with the City's 'Hire Houston First' (HHF) ordinance that promotes economic opportunity for Houston businesses and supports job creation. In this case the procurement is exempt from the City's Hire Houston First Ordinance. Bids/proposals were not solicited because the department is utilizing an Emergency Purchase Order for this purchase.
Fiscal Note:
Funding for this item is not included in the FY2020 Adopted Budget. Therefore, a fiscal note is attached as stated in the Financial Policies.
