A budget adjustment to accommodate this transaction will also need Council approval. Additionally, staff requests Council to pass a resolution to approve funding for the sales tax portion of the bid to cover costs not covered with the terms of the grant in the amount of$1,371.47. Background: The City was awarded a recycling grant from the Arkansas Department of Environmental Quality in September in the amount of S30,000 for the replacement of a conveyor belt for the recycling center. Request for bids for replacement of a conveyor belt in the recycling facility have gone through the Cities bid process and only one bidder gave a bid. The grant funds have been distributed through to the Tri -County Solid Waste District and are awaiting our request for funding. The conveyor belt feeds the baler used to process recyclables before sending them to market. This piece of equipment is critical to the day to day operation of the recycling center and has been in need of replacement for some time. Discussion: The terms of the recycling grant state that sales tax from bids cannot be covered with grant funds. Therefore the City will be required to fund that portion of the bid. Also attached is a budget adjustment form to explain the funding recommendation. The Division requested bids for purchasing a new conveyor belt and the associated costs to install the equipment. There was one bidder, Downing Sales and Service, turning in a bid to complete the fob in the amount of 523,313.88 if the bid was accepted by October 151, 2003. Downing Sales and Service told Staff that the amount of the bid was only good until October l5' and after that time the material costs to construct the belt would increase. The manufacturer of the belt, Process Solutions from Cross, South Carolina, has implemented an increase in the material cost of the belt and will not honor the original price after October 151. Since the bid couldn't be approved through City Council before October l51, and since Downing was the only bidder, a request from staff was made to determine the increase in costs to perform the work. On September 261", Downing sent a letter stating the increase in pnce after October 151. A second request from staff was made to include all other costs 1 of 2 10/16/2003 10.20.22 AM City Council Agenda Item not itemized in the original bid to cover bearings, sprockets and wear strips that should need replacement when the conveyor belt is disassembled. Downing sent a second letter on September 29th, detailing the replacement part costs and a total price if all work is performed at one time. The letters received by Downing are attached as supplements to the original bid. The total cost of the project after the material cost increase and replacement parts and labor were added comes to S28,334.66. The sales tax portion of this total bid from Downing comes to $1,371.47. The recycling grant saves the City the cost to replace the conveyor belt. The belt is in desperate need of replacement and constantly needs welding and othcr maintenance. The belt has been in use since the facility opened in the mid 90's. It is critical that our baler and conveyor remain in good condition as we don't have back up equipment for processing recyclables. Budget Impact: The City is entitled to receive a recycling grant from ADEQ and the Tri -County Solid Waste District in the amount of $30,000. The cost of the project to replace existing conveyor belt with a new belt, including labor and materials, is $28,334.66. The Tri -County District will use the grant funds to pay this amount minus the sales tax. Council needs to approve a budget adjustment to cover this transaction. The sales tax portion of this bill comes to SI,371.47. Since sales tax is not covered in the terms of the recycling grant, $1,372 is requested from the Use of Fund Balance account to cover this cost. The bid for work came in under the amount of grant money available. There are sufficient funds remaining to comply with City policy. 2 of 2 10/16/2003 10.20.22 AM • • RESOLUTION NO.
