PROBLEM/ISSUE STATEMENT
The City of Billings Landfill has a need to expand by constructing the Phase 5 waste cell. Upon completion of the expansion and when existing cells reach their capacity, work is required for the closure/post closure of the Phase 3 and 4 cells. Proposals were requested from qualified consulting firms in November to provide the professional services for both projects. Great West Engineering, Inc. (Great West) was chosen as the preferred consultant.
ALTERNATIVES ANALYZED
Council may choose to:
- Award a Professional Services Agreement to Great West; or
- Do not award an agreement to Great West and delay the project.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The project is being funded by Landfill Infrastructure funds, as approved in the FY 2012 budget. There are sufficient funds available to cover the costs of the Professional Services Contract.
