LANDFILL GAS CONVERSION

Board of County Commissioners · 2026-07-21 · resolution

Resolution adopted on 7/21/2026 directing the County Mayor or designee to negotiate a non-competitive, revenue-generating contract for a landfill gas conversion facility at the South Dade Landfill site, subject to filing a waiver of formal bid procedures, and to bring the negotiated contract back to the Board for approval. In the alternative, if the bid waiver is not filed, the County Mayor must provide a report to the Board by September 1, 2026. The original recommendation to reject all proposals under RFP No. EVN0019329 was amended. The South Dade Landfill is located at 23707 SW 97th Avenue, Homestead, FL. The North Dade Landfill is located at 21500 NW 47th Avenue, Miami, FL. The project involves design, construction, financing, operation, and maintenance of a landfill gas conversion facility. The cost to the developer to design and build each facility was estimated to be over $30,000,000. Five proposals were received and all were deemed non-responsive by the County Attorney's Office. The new solicitation will likely be issued for the South Dade Landfill site only, as the North Dade Landfill was not considered viable. Vendors not recommended for award: Apex One Home Inspections Corp., Mobius Fuels, LLC, Nopetro Energy, Sagepoint Energy Landfill Holdco, Waga Energy, Inc.
