body

Statement of Issue:
In 2019, Council approved a three-year contract with Allied Universal Security Services to outsource the City's street sweeping parking enforcement. This contract was awarded through a competitive bid process.

The contract allows for two (2) one-year extensions to continue services, the first of which was exercised in 2023. Based on Allied Universal Security Services' (Allied) performance, staff recommends approving a contract extension for one additional year through 2024.

Financial Impact:
The cost of the initial three years of the City's contract with Allied was $362,000, $373,000, and $384,000 for a total of $1,119,000. The first one-year extension with a CPI adjustment was $399,272.14. The final, proposed one-year contract extension with CPI adjustment will cost $411,269.45. The additional sum shall be added to the current contract amount of $1,518,272.14, for a new total contract amount not to exceed $1,929,541.59. Funding for these services is included in the FY 2023-24 budget, and no additional funding is requested.

It should be noted separately that in 2023, Allied contractors wrote over 38,000 citations, resulting in over $1.7 million in fines assessed.
