SUBJECT:
Approval of Contract with Gershman, Brickner, and Bratton for Consultant Services Related to the
Implementation and Evaluation of Solid Waste Services
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council authorize the City Manager to execute a contract with Gershman,
Brickner, and Bratton, Inc. (GBB) for professional services related to the implementation and evaluation of
the City of Fort Worth's Solid Waste Management Program. The estimated amount for this contract is
$41,958.00.
DISCUSSION:
On April 1, 2003, the City implemented its new Solid Waste Management Program with a specific design
which included four times per year, per residential unit, point-to-point on demand collection of Large Brush
and Large Bulky Waste, with additional collections as may be requested and charged to the resident. The
City is in the process of evaluating this new program, and is considering possible alternative Brush and
Bulky collection service designs.
In order for the City to make a thorough determination, staff recommends that GBB be re-engaged to
perform the following tasks:
Assist the City in determining the cost of the current collection services embedded in the
City's contract with Waste Management; and
Assist the City in determining costs of alternative Bush and Bulky collection service designs; and
Work with staff in developing an appropriate contract amendment, should the need arise; and
Assist staff in negotiating any contractual or system design change.
The scope of work within GBB's contract with the City will be designed to achieve the above objectives and
will be billed on a time and materials basis. GBB will be called upon through meetings, conference calls
and correspondence with staff to achieve the specific objectives. Any deviation from the scope will require
prior written approval by the City.
FISCAL INFORMATIONXERTIFICATION:
The Finance Director certifies that upon approval of the above recommendations and execution of a
contract, funds will be available in the current operating budget, as appropriated, of the Solid Waste Fund.
