DISCUSSION: The purpose of this Mayor and Council Communication (M&C) is to authorize the execution of non-exclusive agreements with Sand Trap Service Co., Inc. and EnviroServe Inc. for grease trap cleaning and waste removal services. The City of Fort Worth (City) has several grease traps and septic/waste tanks ranging from 500 to 6,000 gallons; these traps and tanks require regularly spaced services to maintain proper functionality and prevent them from reaching capacity to protect the health and well-being of those using the facilities. The Park and Recreation and Public Events Departments approached the Purchasing Division to secure an agreement for grease trap cleaning and waste removal services. To procure these services, Purchasing issued Request for Proposal (RFP) 26-0104, which outlined detailed requirements, including minimum cleaning requirements, environmental restrictions, documentation needs, and tank locations. The RFP was advertised in the Fort Worth Star -Telegram on Wednesdays from February 25, 2026 through March 25, 2026. The City received six (6) responses. An evaluation panel consisting of representatives of the Park and Recreation and Public Events Departments reviewed and scored the submittals using Best Value criteria.
