CHEYENNE, Wyo. — The city has approved contract extensions for various services, including hazard waste disposal, electronics recycling and asbestos and lead paint abatement work.
The Cheyenne City Council approved three contracts costing over $400,000 at its Tuesday night meeting. The first contract is with Veolia ES Technical Solutions LLC.

A professional services agreement with I.T. Refresh was also extended for an additional two years. The company provides the city with electronic recycling services.

Refresh $200,000 and will sign the company a check for another $200,000 from the Solid Waste Fund for the extended contract.
The city’s contract with Orion Environmental Inc. for its part in the Cheyenne Railcar Project has also changed.
