As the city filed it

The purpose of this report is to advise Toronto City Council, pursuant to Chapter 195 of the Toronto Municipal Code, Procurement, Section 195-7.5.B, of a non-competitive contract with Webber Infrastructure Management Canada Limited for emergency snow removal services, for a total value of $942,425 net of all taxes and charges ($959,012 net of Harmonized Sales Tax recoveries). The issuance of this non-competitive contract was a matter of extreme urgency to expedite snow removal and cleanup following the January 25-26, 2026 major snowstorm, which produced approximately 60 centimetres of snow.

This, combined with the major snowstorm of January 14-15, 2026, brought the total snowfall for January to approximately 90 centimetres city-wide. By expediting snow removal, the risk to public safety is reduced as well as increases in mobility. Non-competitive procurements may be undertaken where both the proposed procurement and supplier can be justified in good faith based on an exception set out in Toronto Municipal Code Chapter 195, Procurement. This procurement proceeded under the exception code related to Emergency where the goods or services are required as a result of an emergency which would not reasonably permit the solicitation of competitive submissions, and the City has determined in good faith that both the proposed procurement and the selected supplier, along with the terms and conditions of the contract, are beneficial to the City (Toronto Municipal Code, Chapter 195, Procurement, Section 7.1.G.).

Staff recommended
