M&C Review


COUNCIL ACTION:  Approved on 8/15/2017 

DATE: 8/15/2017 REFERENCE NO.: **P-12082 LOG NAME: 13P17-0340 TIRE RECYCLE CC CODE
CODE: P TYPE: CONSENT PUBLIC HEARING: NO
SUBJECT:  

Authorize Purchase Agreement for Tire Recycling with Liberty Tire Recycling, LLC., in an Annual Amount Up to $702,000.00 for City Departments (ALL COUNCIL DISTRICTS)


RECOMMENDATION:

It is recommended that the City Council authorize a Purchase Agreement for tire recycling with Liberty Tire Recycling, LLC., in the annual amount up to $702,000.00 for City Departments.

 
DISCUSSION:

City Departments will use these services for scrap tire transport, processing and disposal.                

The Invitation to Bid consisted of detailed specifications describing the requirements for the transport, processing and disposal of scrap tires.  No guarantee was made that a specific amount of services would be purchased.  Code Department staff certifies that the recommended vendor's bid meets specifications.

BID TABULATION - See attached bid tabulation.

PRICE ANALYSIS - The price for tires per ton has increased due to operational requirements from the City and a reduction on service providers that can bid on the scope of work.  Code reviewed the prices and determined the prices to be fair and reasonable based on a market rate increase confirmed by other municipalities in the last six months.

BID ADVERTISEMENT - The bid was advertised in the Fort Worth Star-Telegram on May 17, 2017, May 24, 2017 and May 31, 2017.  Ninety-four vendors were solicited from the Purchasing database; two bids were received.  Blagg Tire and Service withdrew their bid.    

M/WBE OFFICE - A waiver of the goal for MBE/SBE subcontracting requirements was requested by the Purchasing Division and approved by the M/WBE Office, in accordance with the BDE Ordinance, because the purchase of goods or services is from sources where subcontracting or supplier opportunities are negligible.

AGREEMENT TERM - Upon the City Council's approval, the Agreement shall begin on August 16, 2017 and expire on August 15, 2018.

 
FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION:

The Director of Finance certifies that funds are available in the current operating budgets, as appropriated, of the participating department and that prior to an expenditure being made, the department has the responsibility to validate the availability of funds.
