Explanation
BACKGROUND: This ordinance authorizes the Public Service Director to extend a custodial services contract with Dove Building Services for the Police Academy at 1000 North Hague Avenue in the amount of $269,197.00. The original contract was authorized by Ordinance 1810-2004, passed November 4, 2004, and funded for a four-month period beginning November 1, 2004 through February 28, 2005. That ordinance indicated that upon the passage of the 2005 Budget, and with Council approval, the Facilities Management Division would request a renewal of the contract for a 12-month period covering March 1, 2005 through February 28, 2006.
Emergency action is requested so that custodial services at the new Police Academy are not interrupted.
Fiscal Impact: The Facilities Management Division budgeted $307,000.00 in the 2005 General Fund budget for this contract extension. In 2004, $123,084.00 was authorized for this contract for a four-month period. This ordinance authorizes the expenditure of $269,197.00 for a twelve-month period.
