<p class="MsoNormal">Good morning. I’m seeking examples of recent efforts to procure recycling processing contracts within Florida. If your county or if cities within your jurisdiction have gone out to bid for recycling processing agreements within the last
3 years, please let me know. Please forward me a copy of your bid package and formal agreement if you have those available.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks in advance for all responses received. I hope everyone has a safe and fun Thanksgiving.<o:p></o:p></p>
