End
Previous Board/Board Committee Actions:
By Resolution 22-251 (December 13, 2022), the Board approved Board of Supervisors (BOS) Agreement Number (No.) 22-306 / Department of Transportation (DOT) Agreement No. 220039, Amended and Restated Franchise Agreement between County of Mendocino and Solid Wastes of Willits, Inc., for Solid Waste Franchise Area One. By Resolution 23-202 (December 19, 2023), the Board approved BOS Agreement No. 23-214 / DOT Agreement No. 230040, Assignment and Assumption Agreement Among Solid Wastes of Willits, Inc., Redwood Waste Solutions, Inc., and County of Mendocino, which assigned the Franchise Agreement for Solid Waste Franchise Area No. 1 to Redwood Waste Solutions, Inc. By Resolution 24-157 (November 5, 2024), the Board approved the Second Amendment to the Agreement (BOS Agreement No. 22-306-A2).
Summary of Request:
Redwood Waste Solutions (RWS) provides solid waste collection services to all areas of the County, including Solid Waste Franchise Areas 1, 2, 3 and 4, and operates all solid waste transfer stations located within the County. Currently, the expiration dates of the agreements for the solid waste collection services and transfer station operation do not align, rendering future bidding of solid waste services very burdensome and fragmented. DOT staff believes it is in the best interest of the County to extend the expiration dates of all the agreements to align with the furthest date of June 30, 2032, to allow for a streamlined bidding process and likely provide for more competitive bids in the future. RWS is willing to continue providing all services under the agreements until that time. Amendment 3 to BOS Agreement No. 22-306 / DOT Agreement No. 220039 extends the expiration date of the Agreement from December 31, 2029, to June 30, 2032.
Alternative Action/Motion:
Do not approve amendment and provide direction to staff.
