EXTENSION OF EXISTING CONTRACT FOR

PERFORMING CUSTODIAL SERVICES

Recommendation:

It is recommended that the City Council:

Continue the existing contract for performing Custodial Service on a month-to-month basis.

Background:

The existing contract for providing custodial services expires on June 30, 1998. The City is in the process of remodeling a significant portion of the Fire Department, City Hall and the Council Chambers. This remodel is scheduled to commence during FY 98-99.

Analysis:

The remodel of the City facilities has the following impact on the janitorial services:

• The square footage will increase.
  
• The method of cleaning will change, i.e. cleaning carpet versus waxing floors.
  
• Additional facilities, i.e. additional kitchens and lounge areas.
  
• The present yearly cost for custodial services is $64,560.

Fiscal Impact:

The FY 98-99 Budget recommends a budget of $71,016.

Alternatives:

1. Approve staff's recommendation authorizing staff to enter into a month-to-month contract with our current contractor until the remodel is complete.

2. Instruct staff to develop new specifications and send it out for bids.
