Deliberate and possibly act on temporarily suspending the landfill RFP process and to evaluate all options concerning landfill disposal and residential sanitation collection. Council Member Jason Rogers said that he would like to suspend the RFP process and look at all options. He said with the contract with Waste Management expiring and a new landfill being built, that there would be more available options. Council Member Pickle said that he would like to continue with the RFP process, while Mayor Biard said he wanted to look at a RFP for the landfill and residential sanitation. Council Member Pickle said he would like the RFP to have two options, one for the landfill only and one to include the landfill fees and residential sanitation fees. Council Member Jason Rogers emphasized that he wanted to receive input from sanitation employees. Council Member Rhonda Rogers suggested that once Council receives numbers, that they hold a workshop. It was a consensus of the City Council to have staff bring back for review a proposed RFP with two options, one being for the landfill fees only and the other one to include both landfill and residential sanitation fees combined. Council asked that the RFP include city equipment and personnel. 17.
