SUBJECT: T10-105 -Crushing of Reclaimed Concrete
RECOMMENDATION:
That tender T10-105, Crushing of Reclaimed Concrete, be awarded to Artscrushing & Recycling
Inc., London, Ontario, at their tendered price of $222,500., plus H.S.T. of $28,925., for a total of
$251,425.
BACKGROUND:
Concrete and asphalt materials removed from City projects are stockpiled at the Battler Yards
and when sufficient quantities are available, the City contracts for the crushing of the materials
and the product is inventoried to be used on various City projects as required. The benefits of
this process are that materials can be re-used rather than paying to have them disposed of, we
have less costly materials available for City projects and the re-use of the materials is
environmentally responsible.
The spend from the previous tender of 2008/2009 was $244,125.00.
