The City of Los Alamitos’ current franchise agreement with Consolidated Disposal Services expires on December 31, 2010.  The City initiated a competitive bid process for solid waste collection services by issuing a Request for Proposals (RFP) on February 3, 2010.

City’s consultant, Sloan Vazquez, LLC, and staff to make recommendations regarding the award of a franchise agreement with a qualified waste collection firm.  The ad hoc subcommittee is recommending that the City Council authorize negotiations with Consolidated Disposal Services for a ten-year waste collection franchise agreement.  Upon completion of the negotiation, the final agreement would be brought back to the City Council for consideration.
