Box 9037 <br />Paris, TX 75461 <br />Honorable Mayor and City Council: <br />W~l 1 11 <br />WASl'E kV1AlVAGEMENT <br />Waste Management appreciates the opportunity we have to provide landfill services to the City of <br />Paris. We regret that we were unable to reach an agreement at this time to extend our contract <br />but look forward to future negotiations. By mutual consent we had delayed the CPI increase this <br />year from Oct. 1, 2008 until Dec. 1, 2008 until our proposals could be reviewed. At this time, and <br />in accordance with our agreement, Waste Management would like to present new landfill rates, <br />effective Dec. 1, 2008. <br />The contract between Waste Management and the City of Paris calls for an increase based on <br />the Consumer Price Index for Dallas, TX area for All Urban Consumers, Garbage and Trash <br />Collection, Not Seasonally Adjusted, Base Period December 1983=100 (published by the United <br />States Bureau of Labor Statistics. (Attached is a copy of the method used to arrive at the past 12 <br />months CPI figure). The increase for this year is 6.2%, based on the most recent CPI figures. <br />Again, we thank you for our continued relationship. If you have any questions please do not <br />hesitate to call me at any time. <br />Sinc ly <br />, <br />Doug Sims <br />Public Sector Services <br />Waste Management <br />903-249-1370 <br />- 00[)019S <br />
