The Plan established strategic goals to ensure all single-family and multi-family residents have access to convenient recycling programs, businesses have improved recycling opportunities, and 60% of all single-family residential curbside material collected by the Solid Waste Management Department (SWMD) is recycled by the year 2025.
This Project was advertised for construction bids in May 2016 in the San Antonio Hart Beat, on the City's website, on the Texas Electronic State Business Daily and on TVSA. Bids for this Project were opened on June 21, 2016 and three bidders responded. Of these, Breda Construction, Inc. submitted the lowest responsive bid. A matrix of the bid outcome is included herein.
Breda Construction, Inc. has agreed to meet a 25% Minority/Women-Owned Business Enterprise (M/WBE) subcontracting goal.
