Form X: Cost Proposal Form

Offeror Name:

Option Proposed Please select one of the options below based on the Proposal being submitted. If Offeror wishes to propose on both options, two separate Proposals must be submitted.

Scenario 1 – City Property

Scenario 2 – Offeror Property

Cost Proposal Processing Fee – Operating Costs (A): This component of the processing fee is intended to recover ongoing operating costs such as personnel costs, utilities, maintenance, rolling stock operating and capital, transportation, fuel, marketing, and other similar costs.

Processing Fee – Capital Costs (B): This component of the processing fee is intended to recover facility and processing capital costs, such as site development, building construction, and processing equipment.

As noted in the RFP, escalation will not be applied to this component of the processing fee.

Total Processing Fee (A+B): The sum of the Operating Costs and Capital Costs components of the processing fee. The Total Processing Fee paid by the City shall always be the lowest fee paid by a customer of the proposed MRF. Should another customer negotiate a lower processing fee, the fee paid by the City shall be lowered to match it.

Please complete each of the following items as part of the cost proposal.

Processing Fee – Operating Costs (A) $

Per ton

Processing Fee – Capital Costs (B) $

Total Processing Fee (A+B) $

Revenue Share* % of Net Revenue

Host Fee for Non-City Tons Accepted $ 5.00 Per ton

*The calculation for the recyclable revenue share shall be as follows:

1. Net Revenues = Gross Recyclable Revenue from sale of City Materials - Processing Fee accrued by City

2. City Recyclable Revenues = Net Revenues x Proposed Recyclable Revenue Share to City (%)

If Net Revenue is less than zero dollars ($0), the City will pay the Net Revenue Amount. In the calculation of the invoice amount or payment due to the City, the Total Processing Fee shall be subtracted from the 100% of the value of the commodities delivered to the recycling facility, , and the revenue share percentage is applied only to the difference between average commodity dollar value per ton and the Total Processing

Fee per ton when the value exceeds the Total Processing Fee. The City will not pay the awarded Contractor any costs other than the Total Processing Fee per ton remaining after the value of the commodities is subtracted.

Further, to the extent the MRF accepts non-City tons, the Contractor owes the City the $5.00 per ton host fee; the dollar amount shall be deducted from the amount the City owes Contractor in months that Net Revenue is less than zero dollars and shall be added to the amount the Contractor owes City in months that Net Revenue is more than zero dollars.

Capital Cost Capital costs will not be subject to the annual rate adjustment. For purposes of this RFP, capital costs are defined as the cost related to (1) the site and building and (2) the processing equipment. While the capital component of the processing fee must be provided on Page 1 of this form, please include the estimated total for the site and building cost and the processing equipment cost below. Rolling stock should be factored into the operating cost component of the processing fee.

Site and Building Cost Estimate:

Processing Equipment Cost Estimate:

Facility Tonnage Assumptions

Please describe the initial annual tonnage anticipated to be processed at the MRF and how the tonnage is anticipated to grow over the term of the agreement.

Financial Incentives
