President Adduci announced that Brian Murphy has been selected by the Board as the incoming Village Administrator. She stated that his employment contract will be posted on the Village website soon.
b. Discussion & Direction: Waste Contract
Jeff Loster stated the Village’s relationship with Strom extends back to the 1980s and the current contract runs through April of 2022. He commented that over the years they have provided the Village with services such as refuse removal, yard waste removal, composting, leaf removal/disposal, flood damage clean-up and various types of recycling, as well as support for community events such as the Pumpkin Smash and Recycling Extravaganza. He remarked that on December 31, 2020 Strom was acquired by Lakeshore Recycling Systems, Inc. (LRS) who acquired the terms of the existing River Forest contract with no changes to be implemented unless submitted to the Village for review and approval. He stated to date, no changes to services have been implemented. He commented the contract provides for refuse, recycling and compost/yard waste removal services for single-family residences and multi-family residences of 3 units or less throughout River Forest with weekly collections, noting that yard waste is picked up every-other week during winter months.
He stated in recent months the Village has experienced a moderate increase in calls related to customer service issues associated with sporadic missed collections, extended LRS call times, etc. He commented the issues are typically attributed to the LRS acquisition, though that perception can often be difficult to verify. He stated to address these issues and minimize their occurrences moving forward, Village Staff met with George Strom, who continues to be actively involved in serving the Village as the LRS legacy contracts representative, and LRS personnel to establish a path forward that will improve services for Village residents. He commented that the following items were discussed: 1. Create a document that can be seen by both Village and the LRS/Strom Staff in real-time that will enable Staff to track customer service issues and ensure all calls are carried through to resolution. He stated that will enable Staff to determine any trends or patterns that may be forming instead of managing calls as isolated incidents. 2. Establish a plan for increased information sharing with Village residents. He commented this will be in the form of a brochure that explains the LRS acquisition of Strom, services available and pricing, and general collection processes. He stated Village Staff would also update the Village website to provide more detailed program information and will increase information shared through the Village’s existing communication program. 3. He commented with all waste collection contracts, the Village’s program has many nuances that can be confusing for new homeowners or those that may wish to change levels of service. He stated Village and LRS/Strom Staff have worked to create a “cheat sheet” to identify general program parameters. He remarked this will ensure that both teams are sharing the same information with customers at all times. He stated the plan is to continue building off of this document to further identify exactly where and when materials are to be placed for collection at a given property, specifically identify those subject to alley collection vs. curbside collection vs. back door service, etc. He commented that it will help reduce confusion regarding existing service levels when addressing customer service issues. He stated Village Staff has also begun discussions with the Geographic Information Services (GIS) consultant to determine if this would be feasible to track geographically in GIS.
He commented the LRS/Strom team have indicated a strong interest in continuing the existing, long-standing relationship with River Forest. He stated with these measures being implemented, Staff believes that the recent increase in customer service issues can be drastically reduced.
He stated The Sustainability Commission discussed the Village’s waste hauling service over the course of several meetings this past year. He stated George Strom and other representatives from LRS attended their July 13, 2021 meeting to provide an overview of services, including the composting program. He commented the Commission also conducted a resident survey. He stated at their November 8, 2021 meeting, the Commission made the following recommendation to the Village Board of Trustees regarding the waste hauling contract: He stated the Commission recommends that the waste contract negotiation be guided by the goals of reducing landfill waste, increasing composting and increasing appropriate disposal of specialty/electronics hazardous waste. He further commented, the Commission recommends including opt-out composting and a drop off or pick up program for specialty/electronic/hazardous waste at an affordable rate.
He stated in October, the Sustainability Commission conducted a survey of residents regarding the Village’s current waste collection services. He stated the survey was communicated in E-News and on the Village’s social media channels. He commented that there was a significant amount of information collected as part of the 27 question survey which was completed by 390 participants.
He stated results of the survey showed that more than 90% of respondents are neutral or satisfied with the quality of Garbage Collection service currently being provided, more than 90% of respondents are neutral or satisfied with the quality of Recycling Collection service currently being provided, and just under 80% of respondents are neutral or satisfied with the quality of Yard Waste Collection service currently being provided. He further stated that just under 85% of respondents are neutral or satisfied with the quality of Compost Collection service currently being provided (only applicable to 144 respondents). He commented that of those that have had to call Strom/LRS for customer service issues, more than 85% are neutral or satisfied with the response. He commented several respondents noted a perceived drop in service subsequent to the LRS acquisition of Strom. He stated just under 90% of respondents indicated they would be interested in a pick-up option for specialty items for an additional fee. He stated just under 77% of respondents are neutral or satisfied with the current cost of service. He remarked just under 88% of respondents are neutral or satisfied with the current collection program overall.
He commented there is a large amount of feedback for Staff to review and utilize in an effort to improve Village residents’ experience. He stated the overall feedback received regarding current services is positive in nature. He commented there are certainly areas that can be improved and the feedback from this survey will be an invaluable tool in addressing any areas of need during negotiations with the selected contractor
He stated the Village’s current contract with Strom/LRS expires on April 30, 2022. He commented that to prevent any lapse in service, the Village will need to decide how best to move forward. He stated Staff has identified the following options.
He stated the Board may allow the current contract to expire while preparing to solicit bids from the open market. He commented it is not known if this approach would yield improved rates as compared to the Village’s current contract. He stated there would likely be a significant impact to residents regarding a disruption in service during any change in vendor. He stated Staff would also anticipate the need to work with a consultant to help manage any change in vendor, which would further increase Village costs. He remarked it should be noted that the Village of Oak Park recently bid out their waste removal contract and received only two bids, one from their existing contractor and the other from LRS. He stated similar rates of surrounding communities are attached as an appendix. He remarked it should be noted that rates are difficult to compare on a like-for-like basis due to the varying scopes and nuanced nature of waste hauling contracts.
He commented the Board can request Staff to negotiate an extension of the current contract through April 30, 2027. He stated the current contract provides a provision in which the Village can unilaterally extend the contract for another five years. He commented rates are not established beyond 2022, however, they would need to be negotiated as part of this extension. He stated Village Staff would anticipate competitive overall rates while trying to further reduce the cost of composting services to residents (as recommended by the Sustainability Commission) in an effort to increase the number of participants. He stated this approach would maintain the consistency of the current level of service. He commented it also does not have any element built-in to hold the Strom/LRS team accountable for addressing the recent increase in customer service calls. He stated if this option were selected, Village Staff would continue to work with the Strom/LRS team to provide an increased level of information sharing to help minimize customer service issues. He commented this approach would also avoid any disruption in service associated with a change in vendor.
He stated the Board can approve re-negotiating a new 5-year contract with an increased focus on customer service and the ability for the Village to opt out after a 12-month period if designated metrics are not met. He stated this approach would allow the Village to re establish overarching goals of the program as it relates to sustainability and identify the need to resolve the recent increase in customer service issues. He commented it would also allow the Village to establish more optimized rates over the next five years while allowing flexibility if customer service goals are not met within the first year.
He commented Staff recommends re-negotiating a new 5-year contract with a built-in opt out option after 12 months. He stated this approach provides the Village with flexibility if the required level of service is not met while motivating the vendor to address Village needs based on a potential loss of four years of the contract. He stated Staff is seeking general consensus from the Village Board regarding the desired approach.
Representative George Strom addressed the Village Board and stated that the business was sold by Lakeshore Recycling Systems. He commented that the transition has affected refuse pickup times and customer service responsiveness. He stated the company has addressed those issues through software upgrades. He stated there is a fact sheet that the company developed with the Village on what to do when resident refuse isn’t picked up. He stated the company has implemented picture taking software that verifies resident refuse pick-ups. He commented the company invested more than a million dollars in a recycling facility located ¾ of a mile from the Village. He stated the company now has one of the lowest carbon footprints in the refuse industry. He stated that he shares residents’ concerns on services and the new procedures would improve accountability to residents. He commented the company has also expanded their marketing team from 2 to 4 employees to ensure that residents are better informed on different refuse programs.
Trustee Brennan stated that she has noticed the company’s customer service efforts. She commented the company has done a lot by assisting with the Recycling Extravaganza, Lemon-Aid, and the Pumpkin Smash. She stated the Sustainability Commission survey had a lot of responses. She commented residents often asked in the survey if a reduce rate can be offered to residents who produce less garbage. She questioned if smaller refuse containers can be provided to residents at a reduced price.
George Strom responded that the company can look into offering a smaller refuse can for a reduced price.
Trustee Brennan asked if electronic service pickup can be regularly scheduled at no additional cost for the service.
Katie Neary from Lakeshore Recycling Systems stated to the Board of Trustees that e-waste and hazardous waste (HHW) are each separate programs. She commented that if e-waste and hazardous waste were incorporated into the refuse pickup schedule, there would be additional costs. She stated it is very expensive to get rid of hazardous waste. She remarked the company has a program that incorporates the cost of e-waste and hazardous waste as part of the refuse cost. She commented the program makes it economical for residents because the costs are spread out.
Trustee Johnson asked how often the company markets their new initiatives.
Katie Neary stated the company posts brochures every year. She commented that the company would post e-waste and hazardous waste publications separately.
President Adduci asked when factoring cost for refuse pickup, do Village residents receive curbside or backdoor refuse pickup service.
Jeff Loster commented that residents who live next to an alley receive alley refuse pickup and residents who do not live next to an alley receive backdoor refuse pickup service.
Trustee Bachner asked how the software they implemented is helping improve their customer service response times.
George Strom stated that the software keeps an account of incidents and repeated incidents creates an alert. He stated LRS now has a shared spreadsheet with the Village which shows the status of resolving refuse issues. He stated that 360 degree cameras are installed on their refuse trucks and the company can review footage if refuse pickup issues arise.
Trustee O’Connell asked if the Village is asking to approve incentive deals. He stated that under the new contract a new rate will need to be established.
Jeff Loster acknowledged there are opportunities to get better service rates. However, he stated that he doesn’t foresee refuse rates increasing.
Trustee Brennan stated that the Sustainability Commission discussed an opt out compost option.
Jeff Loster stated that an opt out means everyone is automatically in the program and one has to opt out of the program. He commented that Oak park discussed a similar program and got a price for an all-in program. He stated that the Village is monitoring that program and would bring this up to the LSR team.
Trustee O’Connell asked if the present compost program is about $20/month.
George Strom stated LSR was the first refuse company to provide compost service in Illinois. He stated the company received a grant to buy compost trucks and didn’t know what the response rate would be. He commented Oak Park allows a shared pricing for compost and the company would be open to a shared pricing mechanism where neighbors can share costs for compost service.
Trustee Brennan stated that an opt out composting option would make it equitable to residents. She stated her preference is the 5-year contract. She stated that the 12 month opt out clause would make it difficult for LRS. She commented if the Village can consider utilizing money from the mc2 Program to help defray costs to residents. .
Jeff Loster stated that he will follow-up on the issue. He commented without an opt out option, there may be a problem for some residents.
George Strom asked the Board if an opt out compost program is something they would consider
Trustee Gillis stated that the Sustainability Commission’s goal is to drive down waste and that the Village should keep any refuse programs affordable for residents.
Trustee Brennan mentioned that the survey responses included school age children would live to visit the facility.
George Strom stated that he has concerns with children at the facilities, but would visit schools to present. He commented that he recommends the Village estimate a composting rate. He stated that if they get 100 participants, they would freeze the compost program cost. He remarked in Oak Park, the opt in program was a 32-gallon cart. He commented that if more carts are returned, they risk not getting back their investment.
Trustee Vazquez stated he accepts Staff recommendation of extending the refuse contract. He mentioned that the Village has a covenant with the Village of Maywood to support each other with business opportunities. He commented expanding the Maywood refuse processing site abides by that promise.
Village President Adduci stated that Staff has a consensus on negotiating a contract.
Trustee O’Connell announced that the Fenwick Friars are playing in the State Football Championship this Saturday.
