SUBJECT:
Title
CONSIDER A SIX MONTH CONTRACT AMENDMENT WITH GOODWILL INDUSTRIES TO PROVIDE BUS STOP AND BUS SHELTER MAINTENANCE FOR THE CARSON CIRCUIT (CITY COUNCIL)
Body
I. SUMMARY
On July 5, 2016, the City Council approved Amendment #2 with Goodwill Industries to provide routine maintenance of the City's bus stop and select bus shelters from July 1, 2016, through December 31, 2016 (Exhibit Nos. 1 & 2). Staff had anticipated that this period would provide sufficient time to conduct an evaluation of the maintenance of the City's bus shelters, as well as complete a Request for Proposal (RFP) process.

The total cost requested by Goodwill Industries in its proposal for a six month amendment is $41,387.58 (Exhibit No. 4).
