CHELSEA – The city of Chelsea is accepting bids for residential garbage pickup and curbside recycling services.
The Chelsea City Council in a June 16 meeting approved a resolution to advertise for bids for citywide garbage and recycling pickup.
“Our current contract with Republic Services expires at the end of August, so we will be putting our garbage and curbside recycling service out for bid,” Mayor Tony Picklesimer said.
According to the resolution, the city “desires to receive bids for the efficient, healthful and aesthetic operation of collection, hauling and disposal of non-hazardous and non-infectious solid waste for all residents within the corporate limits of Chelsea,” as well as “residential curbside recycling available for the residents within the corporate limits of Chelsea.”
The council also approved a resolution to accept the lowest bid for the Chelsea Business Park grading and storm drainage project from Evergreen Erosion Soil LLC, and another resolution to support the 2020 Back to School Sales Tax Weekend on July 17-19.
In addition, the council approved three proposed ordinances for annexations on Chelsea Road (1.01 acres) and Brasher Drive (two 5-acre parcels).
Picklesimer said one of the parcels on Brasher Drive bordered Chelsea and Pelham, making two separate ordinances necessary to complete the annexation process for both parcels, which have the same owners.
The council heard a first reading of a proposed ordinance to establish parking restrictions.
