Request franchise terms for Grease Solutions commercial waste hauling

Applies if: Reporter covering city contracts or solid waste

Why now: The ordinance moved through first reading on October 7, second reading on October 14, and a third and final reading item dated October 21, with only the title describing 'related terms and conditions' and no recorded outcome for the final reading.

What to do: File a records request for the full franchise ordinance text, application file, and any staff analysis of Grease Solutions, LLC. The public record names the company but shows no fee, term length, or reason for the grant, so readers cannot tell what the city gets in return.

Act before: After the requested records are produced
