ON THE QUESTION
Mayor Donchess
Our Street Superintendent is here to explain this one.
Jonathan Ibarra, Superintendent of Streets
Good evening Aldermen, Jon Ibarra Superintendent Street Department. So these monies that | am seeking to
encumber in our change order are escrowed funds that were designated for a striping program and will be
utilized in implementing our bike routes and bike lanes. It is just a change to the contract from those fundings.
Mayor Donchess
Where will these bike lanes be?
Mr. Ibarra
Numerous locations such as Main Street and other designated areas through the City.
Alderman Klee
Actually more just a comment; | am glad to see more bike lanes going through. | am seeing more and more
bikes not just the VeoRides but more and more bikes. | have seen the kids going back and forth to school and
so on, on the bikes so I’m glad to see this.

Re: Contract Extension for Single Stream Recycling
MOTION BY ALDERMAN O’BRIEN TO ACCEPT, PLACE ON FILE AND APPROVE AMENDMENT #1 TO
THE CONTRACT WITH CASELLA RECYCLING, LLC, IN THE AMOUNT OF $400,000. FUNDS ARE
AVAILABLE IN DEPARTMENT 168, SOLID WASTE
ON THE QUESTION
Mayor Donchess
We have our landfill superintendent to explain this one.
Jeff Lafleur, Superintendent of Solid waste
Sure Jeff Lafleur, Superintendent of Solid waste. So this is just a one year extension to the contract that we
currently have with Casella Waste Hauling or Recycling. We don’t think that this is a terrible deal right now
with the way the markets are and they way that recycling is going on. We decided unanimously through the
division, Sally Hyland my Recycling Coordinator and Director decided to ask Casella to extend it for one more
year to see what the markets are going to do.
