RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Public Works Director, or designee, to execute a contract with Contra Costa ARC (dba Commercial Support Services) in an amount not to exceed $280,000 to provide car washing and janitorial services for the period April 1, 2015 through March 31, 2018, Countywide.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This cost is to be funded through the Fleet Services and Facilities Services fiscal year 14/15, 15/16, and 16/17 maintenance budgets. (25% Internal Service Fund - Fleet, 75% General Fund)

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract is not approved, car washing and janitorial services with Commercial Support Services will discontinue.

BACKGROUND:

Community Support Services is a nonprofit 501C3 corporation that hires and places mentally disabled persons in several types of work. This includes car washing and minor custodial work. Fleet Services has hired Commercial Support Services to deliver several car washers with supervision to the Waterbird Service Center daily to conduct County vehicle washing. Vehicles coming in for repair are chosen for washing first, so customers pick up a clean, well-running vehicle. Facilities Services has several remote building sites which the Board of Supervisors has approved to receive sublet custodial services. Two of these sites are the Antioch and Casey libraries. Facilities Services has hired Commercial Support Services to provide minor custodial services to these buildings.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

Not applicable.
