BACKGROUND
This legislation authorizes the Director of the Department of Development to renew a contract with Lima Jean J dba IBAR Home Maintenance for an additional year to provide lawn care and similar work for properties held by the Land Redevelopment Division’s Land Reutilization Program.
Original contract amount $ 30,000.00 PO218676
Renewal No. 1 amount $ 20,000.00
Total contract amount $ 50,000.00
The purpose of the lawn care program is to provide services such as routine mowing, removal of brush and excessive high grass, and all foreign material, and similar work for properties held by the Land Reutilization Program.
The Department of Development advertised RFQ014518 on Vendor Services in February 2020 for the lawn care program. 38 bids were received and the Director of Development entered into contract with ten 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 2022. Advertising for services annually would interrupt the program and possibly result a delay in providing these services. The fee for services in the contract renewal will be the same as that of the original contract.
This legislation will extend the contract an additional year, ending February 28, 2022.
Emergency action is requested in order to continue to services without interruption.
FISCAL IMPACT: Funding is available in fund 2206.
CONTRACT COMPLIANCE: the vendor number is 003246 and expires 2/28/2021
