City of Tukwila <br />Allan Ekberg, Mayor <br />INFORMATIONAL MEMORANDUM <br />TO: Community Development and Neighborhoods <br />FROM: Rick Still, Parks and Recreation Director <br />BY: Kris Kelly, Parks Maintenance Supervisor <br />CC: Mayor Ekberg <br />DATE: September 27, 2017 <br />SUBJECT: B -Force Security Contract Amendment <br />ISSUE <br />Reduction of scope for B -Force security and lower monthly rate of $2,100 to $1,400. <br />BACKGROUND <br />B -Force security has been a great contractor for the Tukwila Parks Department for 4 years and <br />gives excellent service for security and locking our park gates and restrooms. The park <br />restrooms will be closed a month earlier from now on starting in November which will be a <br />considerate amount of labor hours cut and a few parks no longer need gates due to <br />maintenance improvements. These changes will significantly cut the rate. <br />DISCUSSION <br />With the evolving parks system and staff efficiency, we are able to take the existing contract <br />with B -Force security and cut the services needed in order to better financially set our security <br />services for the future. <br />FINANCIAL IMPACT <br />Current B -Force contract is $2,100 a month for 2 years not to exceed $50,400. Imp ementing <br />the cut in services and at a new rate of $1,400 a month the contract will not exceed $40,600 <br />which provides a savings of $9,800 for the remainder of the contract. <br />RECOMMENDATION <br />The Committee is being asked to consider the amendment and forward it to the Regular <br />Meeting on October 16, 2017 under the Consent Agenda. <br />ATTACHMENTS <br />- Original B -Force contract <br />- Contract Amendment, with updated Exhibit <br />1 <br />
