<br />e <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />September 25, 2000 <br /> <br />Dear Commercial Customer: <br /> <br />The City of La Porte is expected to award a new contract for the collection of containerized <br />commercial solid waste in the near future to SFI Waste Systems of North America, Inc. There are <br />several changes to this agreement. <br /> <br />Effective November 1, 2000, the City will no longer bill customers for commercial containerized solid <br />waste collection and disposal. The City of La Porte will apply your deposit to the balance of your <br />account and refund any remaining balances to you. Consequently, 'you will not receive a bill for <br />October garbage collections unless your deposit does not cover the balance of your account. <br />Starting November 1, 2000 all billing and customer service will be through SFI Waste Systems. A <br />SFI representative will contact you in the near future with information regarding billing and service. <br /> <br />For those customers that utilize roll-off service, this service has been eliminated from the new <br />contract. Customers requiring roll-off service after October 31, 2000 may contract with the service <br />provider of their choice. <br /> <br />The beginning rate schedule for containerized solid waste collection and disposal is attached. This <br />schedule will be effective November 1, 2000, and run through November 31, 2001. The new <br />contract will provide for annual rate adjustments based on the Consumer Price Index, with a <br />maximum annual increase of 5%. <br /> <br />The City is committed to providing responsible services to the business community. Should you <br />have any questions regarding the change in billing services, please contact Customer Service at <br />281-470-1403. Should you have any questions regarding container service, please contact SFI at <br />713-948-7600. <br /> <br />Thank you for your support and cooperation. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />G<~ -r: ~ <br />Robert T. Herrera <br />City Manager <br />
