DATE: May 13, 2009
SUBJECT: City Manager Approval — May 15, 2009
ITEM: Consider executing "Commercial Container Placement Form" with Abitibi for
paper recycling.
Department:
Staff Person:
Justification:
Water and Wastewater Utilities
Michael D. Thane, P.E. - Director of Utilities
Agreement will allow placement of a commercial roll -off container at the City's Recycling
Center for the collection of recycled paper. Abitibi will pay the City $15.00 per ton for the
recycled paper and will haul the material from the Recycling Center at no charge. This
container will make the collection of paper Tess labor intensive. This agreement is for one year
and will generate approximately $450.00 per month in revenue, as well as save the City an
additional estimated $450.00 per month in hauling fees.
Funding:
Cost: N/A
Source of funds: N/A
Outside Resources: N/A
Background Information:
Current recycling markets are low with no revenue being received for recycled paper. This
action will generate revenue and decrease operating costs for the City.
