If County and Contractor mutually agree to extend this contract beyond initial term, actual costs <br />for future years are to be negotiated annually. The formula for negotiating future casts is to be <br />as follows: <br />The cost per household for any year shall not exceed the cost per household for the previous <br />year multiplied by a factor equal to the Bureau of Labor Statistics Consumer Price Index for <br />Transportation for the South Urban region as measured in January of the current year and <br />compared to January of the previous year. The cost for In-Town Curbside may be reduced <br />$0.06 per home per month for each increment of 5 homes per hour collection efficiency over 50 <br />stops per hour. <br />For example: the cast per household for 2003-2004 shall be allowed to increase above the 2002- <br />2003 price by an amount equal to the Bureau of Labor Statistics Consumer Price Index for <br />Transportation for the South Urban region as measured in January 2003 and compared to <br />January 2002. The cost for In-Town Curbside shall be reduced $0.06 per home for each <br />increment of 5 homes per hour collection efficiency over 50 stops per hour. <br />e) Expansion or Reduction in Number of Units Serviced <br />The contract maybe expanded or reduced at the option of County to include additional or fewer. <br />residential homes and adjacent small businesses, schools, institutions, churches, and pedestrian <br />recycling stations. If legislation or ordinances are passed which significantly impact the <br />participation in either program (Rural or In-Town), the cost of service for that program maybe <br />renegotiated between the Contractor and County. <br />SECTION 4 <br />Performance Sharing <br />Performance Sharing shall apply to In-Town Curbside collection only, and will be based on <br />measured improvements in operational productivity. Any increase in productivity will be measured <br />against a base of 50 homes per hour collected. 'This measurement shall be based on the actual bin <br />set out rate.' If an increase in productivity is measured, for each five homes per hour improvement <br />above the base of 50, Contractor will reduce the cost of the monthly invoice by $0.06 per resident. <br />The homes per hour calculation will be based on the total Set Outs per month divided by the, total <br />truck hours required to for the curbside collection vehicles to collect, transport, and unload the <br />recyclable materials. This calculation will be made on a monthly basis from daily reports of total <br />set outs and truck hours. This data will originate from Contractor's daily truck information <br />accumulated each month. Contractor shall furnish the information needed to make such a <br />calculation, and Contractor will make this calculation. Contractor will include both the data used to <br />make said calculation and the result of said calculation with the required monthly report. In the <br />event that an improvement in productivity is determined to have taken place during any month, the <br />cost of collection shall be reduced by $0.06 per household billed. This reduction in collection cast <br />per household shall be in effect for the month in which the increase in productivity was measured <br />and for all months that follow throughout the remainder of the contract. <br />
