Contract No. 12-027, Amendment No. 2
Waste Management Contract Extension

ISSUE
Approve Amendment No. 2 to Contract 12-027 for an extension to the Comprehensive Garbage,
Recyclables, and Compostables Collection Agreement with Waste Management of Washington, LLC
(WM)
BACKGROUND
The current Comprehensive Garbage, Recyclables, and Compostables Collection Agreement which
went into effect on November 1, 2012 for a duration of seven years, will expire on October 31, 2019.
According to Section 1 of the current Comprehensive Garbage, Recyclables, and Compostables
Collection Agreement, the City may exercise an option to extend the contract for two 2-year
extensions (for a total of four additional years).
DISCUSSION
In 2018, staff started researching the extension process for the current WM contract. Staff met
several times with the City's consultant, Dr. Jeff Brown of Epicenter, Inc. and representatives from
WM. Staff reviewed the current contract and recommends that it makes good economic sense for
the City to exercise its option for the allowable two 2-year extensions (for a total of four years) with
no change to the terms and conditions of the agreement.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
None.
RECOMMENDATION
Council is being asked to approve Amendment No. 2 to Contract 12-027 for a four-year extension to
the Comprehensive Garbage, Recyclables, and Compostables Collection Agreement with Waste
Management of Washington, LLC and to consider this item at the May 28, 2019 Committee of the
Whole and the subsequent June 3, 2019 Regular Meeting.
