TITLE
The Mayor and City Council shall discuss and possibly take action on a request by the Purchasing Manager to approve expenditures exceeding $25,000 for Fiscal Year 2014 pursuant to the City Purchasing Code, Article IV, Section 3-213(e) “Cumulative Annual Purchases in Excess of $25,000” with Weinberger Waste Disposal; Tee Pee Contractors, Inc.; Fertizona-Casa Grande, LLC; and Sports Apparel.

WEINBERGER WASTE DISPOSAL is a local firm used by multiple City departments for the disposal of landscape material, street debris, and construction debris.

Therefore, staff is requesting to exceed the $27,455.24 expenditure limit but not to exceed $60,000 with Weinberger Waste Disposal.
