RESOLUTION INTRODUCED BY EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE TO AMEND THE AGREEMENT WITH IESI BY allowing an additional $1 per ton for drop and hook
WHEREAS, IESI NY Corporation (“IESI”). 1099 Wall Street West, 2nd Floor, Suite 250, Lyndhurst, New Jersey 07071 (“Contractor”) was awarded the contract for removal and disposal of MSW and C&D per Resolution No. 548-09, adopted on December 30th, 2009 and as modified by agreement dated July 31st, 2010 and further amended by a Modification Agreement dated January 1st, 2020; and
WHEREAS, a trucker shortage and supply chain delays for truck parts have resulted in a backlog at the Monticello tipping floor that is inconvenient for customers that tip on the floor and puts the County at risk of receiving a violation from the DEC; and
WHEREAS, the original contract didn’t take into account the need for drop and hook that will alleviate the current economic conditions that prevent the tipping floor from being clean daily. The total cost of a drop and hook is $3 per ton and the three parties IESI (Landfill), MBI (Trucking company) and the County each wish to share in the cost to solve the problem.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Agreement is hereby amended to allow for a cost share in which the County will pay $1 per ton to add a drop and hook when necessary; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the County Manager is hereby authorized to execute a modification agreement with IESI to add a clause whereas the County will pay $1 per ton additional when a drop and hook is necessary to keep operations running smoothly, said agreement to be in such form as approved by the County Attorney.
