DISCUSSION / BACKGROUND
On April 14, 2020, the Board approved Agreement for Services No. 4832 with Pro-Line Cleaning Services, Inc., to provide routine janitorial services at the Public Safety Facility. This agreement was established for a six month term (March 17, 2020 through September 16, 2020) and a not-to-exceed amount of $46,860.
Due to unprecedented current events related to COVID-19 the County’s custodial staff has been overwhelmed with extra mitigation services and this agreement with Pro-Line was implemented to supplement cleaning efforts at this new facility. With uncertainty still remaining regarding COVID-19 the division seeks to increase the contract’s term and compensation so that routine cleaning services remain available. Amendment I would add an additional $27,335 in compensation and extend the term to December 31, 2020.
Being this agreement is temporary and short term in nature the Division further recommends the Board, pursuant to Article II, Section 210b(6) of the El Dorado County Charter, make findings that the ongoing aggregate of the work to be performed is not sufficient to warrant the addition of permanent staff.
