Subject:
title
Approve contract for street sweeping enforcement with Universal Protection Services, LP, DBA Allied Universal Security Services
body
Statement of Issue:
Street sweeping plays a vital role in reducing pollution, removing debris, preventing storm drain clogs, and enhancing the appearance of the City's 1,121 miles of residential and commercial streets. To ensure the effectiveness of street sweeping, enforcement must be both efficient and consistent. However, low staffing levels and other factors have previously limited the City's ability to achieve full enforcement. Outsourcing street sweeping enforcement increases citation coverage and allows full-time City employees to focus on other essential community services.
In July 2024, the City issued a Request for Proposal for street sweeping enforcement services. Seven companies submitted proposals before the August deadline. Allied Universal Security Services was identified as the most qualified company to continue providing street sweeping enforcement services for the City of Huntington Beach.
Financial Impact:
Over three years, the total amount of this contract is $1,392,753. Annual costs for services are $448,639 for year 1, $463,906 for year 2, and $480,208 for year 3. Sufficient appropriations are budgeted in the current fiscal year in the Police Department. Funds for future years will be budgeted accordingly.
Recommended Action:
recommendation
Approve and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the "Service Agreement Between the City of Huntington Beach and Universal Protection Services, LP OBA Allied Universal Security for Street Sweeping Enforcement Services" in an amount not to exceed $1,392,752.79 over a three-year term.
