Description
Request to authorize the City Manager, or his designee, to enter into an amendment to increase the total amount of Contract 137334 with eGreen IT Solutions, LLC (Vendor 3073741), to recycle electronics on an as-needed basis. The additional requested funds will not exceed $100,000 over the remaining contract term. Further request authorization for the City Controller to disburse all funds related to this item.
Report
Summary
eGreen IT Solutions, LLC processes electronics collected from the public at the City's transfer stations and Household Hazardous Waste events. The additional funds are needed to allow for a price adjustment due to increased disposal costs. Recently, there has been an increase in the number of cathode ray tube televisions and monitors collected from the public, as other agencies, including nonprofits that accept donations of household goods, will no longer accept these items. In addition, the component parts of these materials have lost resale value, and their disposal has become more costly for the vendor.
Financial Impact
The revised aggregate value of the contract will not exceed $350,000 through the remainder of the contract term through Oct. 31, 2018. Funds are available in Public Works Department's budget.
