Report

Summary

This contract will provide services to replace and repair the scales used at City-owned transfer stations and open landfill as needed. Working scales are imperative to operations, as all transactions inbound must be weighed to ensure proper billing is conducted. Repair and calibration of truck scales is necessary for regulatory compliance at several Wastewater Treatment Plants and Water Treatment Plants. The vendor is paid by the weight of the haul, so it is extremely important the truck scales, at every location, are accurate and in good condition.    

 

Contract Term

The contract term remains unchanged, expiring on Oct. 31, 2024.

 

Financial Impact

Upon approval of $136,000 in additional funds, the revised aggregate value of the contract will not exceed $1,068,000. Funds are available in the Public Works and Water Services departments' budgets.
