There will be a significant cost savings <br />associated with negotiating directly with PGS <br />instead of the time associated with reviewing, <br />leveling, interviewing, and analyzing up to 4 <br />proposals. <br /> <br />PGS looks forward to working in partnership with the City to plan for the future needs of <br />Pleasanton. A sole source negotiation offers a cost-effective opportunity for the City to further <br />explore opportunities at the existing site, as well as consider how best to plan for a potential <br />future relocation, should that become necessary to manage the encroachment of homes on <br />Busch Road. <br />We look forward to the opportunity to discuss any of these items with you. <br />Best regards, <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />President, Pleasanton Garbage Services <br />gina@pleasantongarbageservice.com <br />925.580.1538 <br />
