beginning of August, and the closing would take place in 90 days, pending approval at the August Cabinet meeting. 2. Single Stream Transfer Facility Update (memorandum dated June 30, 2015) 168-171 Director Burke recalled that on April 21, 2015, the Solid Waste Disposal District Board approved the Solid Waste and Recyclables Collection Franchise Agreement with Waste Management, Inc., and pointed out that one of the primary elements included switching from dual-stream to single-stream recycling. He said staff was looking at a turn-key project with Waste Management that would utilize a 6,240 square-foot fabric- based building for a cost of $298,000, which would include demolition of the existing structure, improving the tipping/loading area, and installing push walls. Director Burke used the overhead projector to describe the different structures and how the facility will operate. Due to the short timeline and lower cost of the operation, he recommended waiving the bid process and awarding the turn-key project to Waste Management, in the amount of$298,000. MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner O'Bryan, SECONDED by Commissioner Flescher, to: (1) waive the bid process and award the turn-key project to Waste Management, Inc., for a not to exceed amount of $298,000, to construct a new single-stream transfer facility, and (2) authorize the Purchasing Manager, in conjunction with the County Attorney, to issue a Purchase Order to Waste Management. George Geletko, representing Waste Management, revealed that Luke Debock, Waste Management's Construction Manager Engineer, had about 30 years of experience with these types of facilities. Luke Debock said the structures have a 10-year warranty, and are basically maintenance free. He thereafter explained how the structure would be erected. The Chairman CALLED THE QUESTION and the Motion carried unanimously. Solid Waste Disposal District Page 2 July 7,2015
