Title
Health and Human Services Agency (HHSA), recommending the Board:
1) Find, in accordance with Government Code Section 31000, that the Animal Services West Slope Shelter location is remote from available county employee resources and the County's economic interests are best served by contracting for janitorial services rather than by paying additional travel and subsistence expenses to existing county employees;
2) Approve and authorize the Chair to sign Agreement for Services 3268 with Pro-Line Cleaning Services, Inc., for the provision of janitorial services at HHSA’s Animal Services West Slope Shelter located 6435 Capitol Avenue, Diamond Springs, CA 95619, for the term October 1, 2018 through September 30, 2021, with a maximum contractual obligation of $85,476; and
3) Authorize the Purchasing Agent, or designee, to execute further documents relating to Agreement for Services 3268, including amendments which do not increase the maximum dollar amount or term of the Agreement, and contingent upon approval by County Counsel and Risk Management.
FUNDING: 55% General Fund, 40% Fees for service, 5% Realignment.
Body
DISCUSSION / BACKGROUND:
HHSA’s Animal Services West Slope Shelter facility is not maintained by County janitorial staff, necessitating an agreement with an outside vendor for these services. HHSA has maintained a contractual relationship with Pro-Line since 2009 for janitorial services at the Animal Services facility with satisfactory performance. Agreement for Services 072-S1611 is the current janitorial services agreement for this location (File ID 15-0975, Item 15).
ALTERNATIVES:
Disapproval of this agreement would require HHSA to identify another vendor for janitorial services and develop a contract with that vendor, thereby creating a gap in services.
OTHER DEPARTMENT / AGENCY INVOLVEMENT:
County Counsel, Facilities, Human Resources, and Risk Management.
CAO RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the Board approve this item.
