TRASH CONTRACT The City Manager
MODIFICATIONS reviewed his written
report dated January
22, 1976, regarding
the status of the trash contract negotiations between the
Staff and Mr. Tom Blackman, Jr. He stated that agreement
had been reached on all of the issues voted on by Council
on January 19, except one, the Contractor's request for
supplemental monthly labor payments; that in order to re-
solve the issue, the Contractor has agreed to furnish the
Staff with a complete audit for calendar year 1974 and 1975;
that this information will enable Staff to make some good
recommendations for a fair settlement of Great Western's
request for a rate increase. He stated that Staff has also
compiled data to show exactly what the City has paid the
Contractor since 1963, when the contract went into effect;
he distributed ledger sheets containing that information.
The Council consensus was to authorize Staff to proceed with
the drafting of the completed contract as outlined in the
Manager's report to provide a method for both commercial
and residential increases and for extension of the contract
based on justifiable data submitted by the Contractor. CA 11.4
