This is a City Commission memorandum from the City of Altamonte Springs, Florida, regarding a sole source procurement for the Regional Water Reclamation Facility (RWRF). The document requests a waiver of the formal solicitation process to purchase a mechanical belt screen and wash press from HUBER Technology, Inc. for $348,930. The procurement was posted on March 14, 2025, with a deadline for alternative responses on March 19, 2025, and is intended to be approved by the City Commission on April 1, 2025. The sole source contract term will run through fiscal year 2025, ending September 30, 2025.

The Public Works Department justifies the sole source procurement by noting that HUBER Technology is the exclusive provider of authorized parts, equipment, and service technicians for the system installed in 2016. Sufficient funds are available in the budget for this purchase, which exceeds the $50,000 formal solicitation threshold, requiring Commission approval. The equipment will be used to remove materials and trash from raw wastewater, protecting downstream equipment and ensuring reliable wastewater treatment at the Regional Water Reclamation Facility.
