Council 8-5-26

The Municipality of Murrysville held a council meeting on August 5, 2026, where several procurement-related topics were discussed. A significant portion of the meeting focused on the review and selection of a new waste hauling service following a request for proposals (RFP). Five companies submitted bids, with Pro-Waste and County Hauling offering the lowest rates for unlimited curbside collection services. After detailed analysis of pricing, service capabilities, and transition plans, the council awarded the contract to County Hauling for a five-year term with options to extend. Additionally, the council authorized a public hearing for proposed zoning ordinance amendments and approved the release of a $3,300 bond related to landscaping improvements. The council also approved the sale of surplus municipal equipment, with one item being removed from the auction due to a technical issue. Other discussions included potential future budget considerations for speed monitoring equipment and plans for a joint comprehensive plan with a neighboring municipality. No executive session or additional action items were noted.
