RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Chief Information Officer, Department of Information Technology, or designee, to execute a contract amendment with the East Bay Regional Park District to extend the term through September 30, 2023 to continue radio communication services for their Low Band Radio Microwave Project at the rate of $139.00 per hour plus the cost of any materials and equipment.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Revenue for the Telecommunications Division of the Department of Information Technology (DoIT).

BACKGROUND:

DoIT’s Telecommunications Division has provided radio communication services for the East Bay Regional Park District’s (EBRPD) Low Band Radio Microwave Project which was scheduled to be complete at the end of December 2022 . Unfortunately, the EBRPD was unable to complete the project by the scheduled end date and has requested to extend the agreement through September 30, 2023. DoIT will provide the radio communication services to the EBRPD at the rate of $139.00 per hour, which may be adjusted each fiscal year, plus the cost of any materials and required equipment. County has the right under the agreement to adjust the hourly rates on an annual basis based on its costs to provide the Services, and EBRPD can agree to the increased rates, or terminate the agreement.

Under the contract, the County is obligated to defend and indemnify the EBRPD of third-party claims arising out of County’s negligent acts in performing the Agreement, except to the extent caused by the negligence, sole negligence or willful misconduct of the EBRPD.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract is not approved, the Telecommunications Division will not receive revenue.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

None.
