Title
8. Authorize the City Manager to Execute the First Renewal of an Annual Contract for Lawn and Leaf Bags with Paper Chemical Supply, Inc. in the Amount of $84,370 (Event No. 6526)
Strategic Priority
Good Government
Description

Recommend approval to renew an annual contract for lawn and leaf bags with Paper Chemical Supply, Inc. in the amount of $84,370. The lawn and leaf bags are maintained in inventory at the Central Warehouse and are used by various City departments to collect compostable yard waste, as well as other trash and debris. 

Paper Chemical Supply, Inc. requested an increase of approximately 6.4% for the renewal contract. As the economy has grown, so has the demand for paper. This increase is due to the rise in manufacturing and production costs. 

Bids were originally received on October 16, 2018. This contract was originally approved by Council on November 20, 2018 in the amount of $79,300. This is the first of three annual renewal options available.
