At the June 9, 2020 Commission meeting, the Commissioners authorized the Administration to pursue an extension of the current agreement with Waste Management Inc. of Florida for six (6) months. The additional time will amend the expiration of the contract through May 31, 2021.

2) Sections 37.2.5 and 37.2.6 are deleted to remove “Collection Service in Central Business District” and “Litter Collection”

During the extension period, the City will have an opportunity to evaluate and award a replacement Request for Proposal (RFP) from potential providers to meet the needs of the City with regard to providing waste and recycling collection.
