This is a procurement division prohibition document issued by the City of Gainesville, Florida, establishing foreign countries of concern restrictions for contract bidders. In accordance with Section 287.138, Florida Statutes, effective January 1, 2024, the City will not accept bids, proposals, or enter into contracts with entities that would grant access to personal identifying information unless the bidder provides a notarized affidavit attesting non-compliance with specific criteria. The Exclusive Residential Curbside and Municipal Solid Waste and Recycling Agreement solicitation requires weekly collection services for approximately 29,000 single-family residential units, including solid waste, bulk waste, recycling, white goods, yard trash, and other designated waste streams, with an optional food waste composting service. The contract term spans 10 years with two potential 5-year renewals, with a mandatory pre-proposal meeting on October 29, 2025, questions due by November 5, 2025, and proposals due by December 4, 2025, at 3:00 PM.

Bidders must demonstrate minimum qualifications of managing three residential curbside solid waste and recycling collection contracts serving at least 25,000 homes each within the past five years. The estimated yearly total for waste collection at the primary disposal site (Leveda Brown Environmental Park) is $6,189,983.64, with alternative disposal options available at New River Regional Landfill. The city will pay disposal and processing fees directly to designated facilities, while the new contractor must supply all collection containers. Collection vehicles may be powered by diesel, CNG, electric, hybrid, or alternative fuels, and service options range from 3 to 5 days per week with variable cart sizes from 20 to 96 gallons. No-cost services include cart maintenance, yellow bag collection, disabled backdoor service, and community event services. Bidders must certify they are not owned, controlled, or principally located in designated foreign countries of concern including China, Russia, Iran, North Korea, Cuba, Venezuela, and Syria.
