BACKGROUND
According to City Ordinance 28-22.1, no person shall engage in the business of collecting,
hauling or transporting, in the city, any garbage, waste or refuse, without first having obtained a

the City and are doing business in this area. Liquid Vacserv, LLC has requested that the City
Council grant the company such franchise agreement. Liquid Vacsery is locally owned and
operated with its corporate office located at 2715 Laurel Street in Beaumont.
The requested franchise is generally the same as those previously approved by City Council. It
provides for a term of one year from its effective date and a franchise fee of seven percent (7%)
of gross revenues received for service. It also requires the entity to indemnify the City of
Beaumont and provide insurance which names the City of Beaumont as a named insured.
According to City Charter, franchise ordinances require readings at three (3) separate Council
meetings, with the third not less than thirty(30) days from the first reading. The ordinance does
not take effect until sixty(60) days after its adoption on the third and final reading. After passage,
the ordinance must be published for four(4) consecutive weeks in a newspaper of general
circulation in the city. All publication costs are paid by franchisee. Attached, is a copy of the
franchise agreement for your review.
