Sofia municipal waste management legal disputes
Overview
The Sofia Municipality has secured legal victories regarding public procurement for waste management services through rulings by the Supreme Administrative Court.
In one instance, the court confirmed the municipality acted lawfully in terminating a cleaning contract for Zone 1, covering the Sredets, Lozenets, and Studentski districts. The termination followed bids that the municipality deemed excessively high compared to market rates. This ruling enables the city to initiate a new procurement process with stricter quality and machinery requirements.
In a separate matter, the court upheld the selection of Chista Sofia DzZSD as the contractor for waste services in the Slatina, Poduyae, and Izgrev districts. The court dismissed challenges from Eco Resurs-R OOD regarding the legality of the evaluation methodology, confirming that Chista Sofia’s selection was lawful. The five-year agreement for these districts established a rate of 134 BGN per ton excluding VAT.
