FROM: Lloyd V Harrell, City Manager
SUBJECT Purchase Order 84869 Poly American
RECOMPENDATION.
We recommend this purchase order 84869 to Poly American in the
amount of $29,550.00 be approved
SUMMARY
This purchase order is for 7500 rolls of refuse bags The contract
supplier of our Refuse Bags has notified us of an industry wide
allocation of resin for bag manufacture This shortage has made
it impossible to meet our delivery schedule for September distribution
The 7500 rolls on this purchase order were manufactured for another
city to a slightly different specification

SUMMARY
Actually this bag exceeds our normal specifications It
is 1 7 thick vs 1 5 mil , measures 30x39 instead of 30x37
It is not printed with City of Denton identification and
only has 50 bags per roll instead of 52
The price for the bags is $3 94 per roll instead of the
$2 61 contract price. Recent bids taken by other cities
is Richardson and Mequite have indicated a price increase
of up to 100% I highly recommend we purchase these
available bags This will give us some breathing room
and time for the market to settle The $3 94 is below
market price and reflects the actual cost to the
manufacture Poly American

CITY of DENTON, TEXAS PURCHASING DIVISION / 901 B TEXAS STREET / DENTON, TEXAS 76201

TO CHARLIES WATKINS
FROM TOM D. SHAW
DATE APRIL 4, 1988
SUBJECT: COST OF REFUSE BAGS
I have talked with several of the Refuse Bag Suppliers The
general feeling is that the cost of bags will double with our
new bid.
City of Mesquite prices went from $2 49 per roll to $5 02 per
roll of 50 bags.
This might be important in your budget process
Our current bid is good thru September

M g M O R A N D U M
TO: Charlie Watkins, Solid Waste
FROM: Tom Shaer, Purchasing
DATE: June 14, 1988
SUBJECT: REFUSE BAGS
Due to a major international shortage of linear low
polyethelyne resin our supply of refuse bags is
currently in jeopardy.
I called our supplier Poly -American to order 10,000
rolls for the September distribution and warehouse
stock They informed me that due to the allioation
of resin, of which they will have none before August,
no bags are available They hope to supply the customers
they are under contract to sometime in September or
October depending upon resin supply. This shortage is
industry wide and is a spin off of the low oil prices
and decreasing supply.
We currently have 2300 rolls in stock We have discontinued
sales to other cities, school districts and other customers
effective June 10, 1988.
The September distribution may have to be delayed until
October. We will keep you advised.
