BACKGROUND
This legislation authorizes the Director of the Department of Development to renew a contract with BCN Real Estate Holdings LLC for an additional year to provide for maintenance of properties held by the Land Redevelopment Division’s Land Reutilization Program.
Original contract amount $ 45,000.00 PO240884
Renewal No. 1 amount $ 75,000.00
Total contract amount $120,000.00
The purpose of the property maintenance program is to provide services such as trash and debris removal from structures, cleaning and abatement of vacant lots, boarding structures, graffiti removal, tree services, and similar work for properties held by the Land Reutilization Program.
The Department of Development advertised RFQ016143 on Vendor Services in August 2020 for the property maintenance program. Six bids were received and the Director of Development entered into contract with five bidders under the authority of Columbus City Code Section 329.19. For the original contract, the contract period is from the date of approval of the purchase order to February 28, 2021, with an option to renew one additional year, through February 28, 2022. Advertising for services annually would interrupt the program and possibly result in a delay in providing these services. The fee for services in the contract renewal will be the same as that of the original contract.
Emergency action is requested in order to continue services without interruption.
FISCAL IMPACT: Funding is available in fund 2206, Land Management Fund.
