BACKGROUND:
The Payment Processing Agreement with Forte Payment Systems, Inc., was entered into on November 1, 2018. Concerns regarding the transmission of COVID-19, the temporary closing of charitable donations centers, along with recent "stay at home" orders, resulted in a significant increase of residential self haulers to the Perdido Landfill. These occurrences resulted in a significant increase in the usage of credit/debit card transactions. Due to the unexpected increase in the number of credit/debit transactions, addional funding for processing is required.
