Title
Consider and take action on a resolution authorizing payment to AmeriWaste League City, Inc. for disposal of Hurricane Beryl Debris in an amount not to exceed $120,422.88 (Director of Public Works)
Background:
Approval of this item will authorize FY2024 payment to AmeriWaste League City, Inc. for disposal of Hurricane Beryl Debris in an amount not to exceed $120,422.88.
In response to the debris removal efforts from Hurricane Beryl, the City negotiated special services from AmeriWaste as allowable per the Solid Waste Contract (2024/2025 Rate Schedule, page 3) see Attachment No. 2. These services were utilized to supplement the City’s heavy debris removal contractor and in-house efforts. AmeriWaste’s services included a bagged green waste vegetation drop-off site at Hometown Heroes Park for approximately two weeks and city-wide bagged green waste and small loose brush curbside pickup that occurred over three Sundays and other incidental mid-week runs. Costs were based on hourly labor rates, rear-loader truck rates, and landfill disposal rates.
Rate Summary:
Disposal - $30/ton x 833.45 tons = $25,003.50
Driver plus truck - $105/hour x 602.75 hours = $63,288.75
Helper - $22.50/hour x 1,122 hours = $25,245
Supervisor - $57.50/hour x 119.75 hours - $6,885.63
Total Cost - $120,422.88
All costs associated with AmeriWaste efforts will be formally submitted for potential FEMA reimbursement with the understanding that the cost of the Hometown Heroes bagged green waste disposal ($18,792.58) will most likely not be eligible. AmeriWaste also provided a substantial documentation effort to support the City’s FEMA reimbursement submission.
AmeriWaste additional services were instrumental in the overall success of debris removal efforts from Hurricane Beryl.
