<br />e <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />CITY OF LA PORTE <br />INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM <br /> <br />PUF-{G'i-IASING DIVISION <br /> <br />TO: <br />FROM: <br /> <br />STEVE GILLETT, DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC WORKS <br />SUSAN KELLEY, PURCHASING MANAGER ,Jk, <br /> <br />SUBJECT: PLASTIC GARBAGE BAGS <br /> <br />DATE: <br /> <br />OCTOBER 8, 1999 <br /> <br />In May 1999, the City of La Porte requested formal bids on the purchase of plastic <br />garbage bags. We received four (4) quotes from suppliers. Bemis Corp. submitted their <br />bid as the Houston-Galveston Area Council (HGAC) contract. Even with the HGAC <br />administrative fee, their price was still $1,000 lower than the next bid. <br /> <br />Phil Webb, Solid Waste Supervisor recently notified me of a request for 135,000 Ibs. of <br />bags prior to December 17, 1999. I have contacted Diane Domagas at HGAC, and the <br />contract we purchased from in May is still in effect. The price for 135,000 Ibs. at $.391 <br />per lb. is $52,785.00. The administrative fee would be $1,047.85 for a total of <br />$53,832.85. <br /> <br />If this expenditure is considered at the Council meeting on October 25, 1999, there <br />should be no problem receiving delivery prior to December 17th. <br /> <br />If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me. <br />
