City Council Meeting Minutes May 20, 2014 Page 9 of 20 Council member Stolzmann felt all residents could reduce trash. She felt only one response to the RFP adhered to the pay as you throw concept. She felt the information Council needed for a decision was in front of them, with the weighting of the different customer classes but felt it put greater emphasis on the high users who currently pay more because of how averages work. She asked if someone other than Republic was chosen, would new contract language need to be written. Public Works Director Kowar reported the RFP was the same as the one five years ago and wanted direction on pay as you throw specification structure. City Manager Fleming suggested looking at what the RFP said about price and compare average, median and mode price and the effect on the different classes. MOTION: Council member Lipton moved to continue this item to the next regularly scheduled meeting and have staff analyze the data as suggested by Council and bring back that analysis for Council consideration, seconded by Council member Keany. The motion carried by a vote of 5 -0. Mayor Pro Tem Dalton absent. Further discussion noted getting this information back at the next meeting might be difficult so City Manager Fleming and Public Works Director Kowar would keep the analysis moving forward and present to Council as soon as possible.
