01/27/2026 – Hendricks Co. Recycling District Board Meeting

The Hendricks County Recycling District Board held a meeting on January 27, 2026, focusing primarily on recycling center operations, facility planning, and budgetary matters. Key procurement-related discussions included a proposal from DLZ for engineering and architectural services for a new hazardous waste center and office building estimated at $3.5 million. The board discussed funding strategies, with the district able to contribute approximately $1.75 million and the county expected to cover the remainder. The board also reviewed financial reports, including income from disposal fees and operational costs of recycling centers, noting a recent price increase to help close budget gaps. Additionally, the board approved claims payments and passed resolutions related to citizen advisory committee appointments and off-month claims processing. No contract awards or vendor selections were finalized during this meeting, but the DLZ proposal and funding approach represent significant upcoming procurement activity.
