SPRINGVILLE The city council of Springville met for the first meeting of July on Tuesday, July 6, after moving the regularly scheduled meeting from Monday, July 5, due to the Independence Day holiday.
In the work session prior to the meeting, City Attorney James Hill presented a proposal to rebid garbage collection services within the city. After a series of previous companies being purchased, trash removal services are currently contracted with Waste Management, Inc.
“We need, and they want, us to rebid the contract,” said Hill. “There are things that need to be revised.”
Hill gave examples of other cities including franchise fee provisions in waste management service contracts to maintain and repair roads damaged by garbage trucks.
