WA-5Incorporate diversion target for city construction projects and Longmont Urban Renewal Authority (LURA) projects into standard contract language

To meet this strategy, Purchasing staff are working with project managers to incorporate more waste recovery, reuse and recycling into the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) projects. Purchasing, project managers, and CAO have completed a draft update to the Construction General Conditions and Contracts. Due to the broad scope of construction projects covered by the General Conditions, the group agreed it would be most appropriate to add specific goals in each project's Special Conditions. These requirements should be compatible with the overall Environmentally Preferable Purchasing Policy, which is currently being finalized.
