Title
Consider and take action on a resolution authorizing payment to Garner Environmental Services, Inc. for generator and pump rental services for Hurricane Beryl in an amount not to exceed $69,270.31 (Director of Public Works)
Background:
Approval of this item will authorize the payment to Garner Environmental Services, Inc. for generator and pump rental services for Hurricane Beryl in an amount not to exceed $69,270.31.
Garner Environmental Services, Inc. is the City’s contracted disaster logistics services provider. In September 2025, Garner notified the City of an outstanding invoice for emergency generators and pumps used during post-Hurricane Beryl recovery efforts in July 2024. At that time, Public Works and Facilities requested seven (7) generators and two (2) pumps to restore utility services and building operations at multiple locations impacted by extended power outages.
Due to the delay in time associated with the invoicing oversight, staff worked directly with Garner to provide confirmation of all proposed costs. Both parties have agreed to a total of $69,270.31. Once the outstanding invoice is processed, the applicable information will be forwarded to the City’s Grant Office to be submitted into ongoing FEMA reimbursement requests for Hurricane Beryl.
