Analysis
Since February 28, 2007, the Fort Worth District of Texas Department of Transportation has been responsible for the clean up of approximately 93.45 acres of roadside property within the City of Grand Prairie, along IH 360, IH 30 and IH 20. The frequency with which TxDOT has been able to maintain these roadside acres is insufficient to provide for the cleanliness desired by the City. Amendment #1 to the Municipal Maintenance Agreement, will provide for the City to contract with a vendor to provide for the collection of litter along these roadways and provides for reimbursement up to $13.56 per acre per collection cycle, up to 12 clean-up events per 5-year period.
Financial Consideration
The cost of litter collection along these roadways at a frequency of once per month, at $13.56 per acre is $15,206.18, of which approximately $3,041 is eligible for reimbursement annually from TxDOT. If litter collection is needed more frequently, the expense associated with this will be paid for by the City.
Funding is available in the approved FY 2018/2019 Solid Waste Budget 303510 61065 Contractual Services.
