ESTABLISHING AD HOC COMMITTEES TO ADVISE ON THE CURRENT SOLID

Agreement ") on September 2, 2003, which expires on October 31, 2013 for the
collection of all solid waste in the City; and
WHEREAS, there is an option to extend the Waste Agreement for consecutive 5
year terms, based upon mutual agreement of the parties; and
WHEREAS, the services of CDS are being evaluated at this time to ascertain
CDS's compliance with the terms of the Waste Agreement; and
