City of Elgin Agenda Item No. .. - , January 21, 2000 TO: Mayor and Members of the City Council FROM: Joyce A. Parker, City Manager SUBJECT: Solid Waste Contract Payments PURPOSE The purpose of this memorandum is to provide the Mayor and members of the City Council with information to consider the approval for the number of household stops for which the City makes payment pursuant to the subject contract with Waste Management. BACKGROUND We have documented that the number of household stops listed in the contract with Waste Management (WM) should be increased by 78 to account for the number of new single-family housing units constructed on public streets from July 1, 1999, through December 31, 1999. Therefore, the contract number of single-family housing " stops" should be increased by 78, from 20, 386 to 20, 464 . This number will remain in effect for the next six months (January 1, 2000 through June 30, 2000) . Another adjustment to be made to the contract is the number of new units from multi-family developments that are currently under construction. Multi-family developments receive garbage and recycling service via curbside collection, or through permanent dumpsters/carts, depending on the type of housing structure. Yard waste services are not provided. Per our contract, multi-unit developments receiving curbside service are paid at 75% of the regular contract rate. Developments receiving dumpster/cart service are billed for recycling based on the number of housing units ($1 . 77/unit/month) , and for trash based on volume ($4. 35/yard) . The following is a list of developments currently under construction, along with the number of units: Solid Waste Contract Payments January 21, 2000 Page 2 New Multi-Family Complexes (Under Construction) Curbside Service Number of Units Was Add' 1.
