Re: Extension of Drop -box Container Collection Contract; Contract No. 17-187.11
To Whom It May Concern:
On December 12, 2017, the City Council for the City of Spokane Valley (the "City") approved a 10-year
Comprehensive Drop -box Container Collection Contract with Waste Management of Washington, Inc.
("WM"). On January 4, 2018, the City and WM entered into the Drop -box Container Collection Contract (the
"Original Contract").
Pursuant to Section 1 "Term of Contract" of the Original Contract, the initial term of the Contract is for 10
years between April 1, 2018 and March 31, 2028. According to that same section, the City may, at its sole
option, extend the Original Contract for up to two additional two-year terms. The terms and conditions of the
Original Contract shall control any extension.
On August 26, 2025, the City Council for the City of Spokane Valley (the "City") approved a motion to extend
the Original Contract for two years until March 31, 2030.
Please accept this as the City's written notice to WM that the City has chosen to exercise the first of the two
additional two-year options.
We appreciate WM's continued partnership in providing drop -box collection services to the citizens of
Spokane Valley, and look forward to continuing that cooperation through the first quarter of 2030. Should you
have any questions, please contact Public Works Director, Robert Blegen at 509-720-5320, or by email at

Sincerely,
John Hohman
City Manager
