With the annexation of the Montgomery area to the City, this department recommends that an agreement with the MAAC Project to provide grounds maintenance services be renewed for six (6) months. RECOMMENDATION: That Council adopt resolution. BOARDS/COMMISSIONS RECOMMENDATION: Not applicable DISCUSSION: The County' s agreement with the MAAC project to provide the ground maintenance services for the Lauderbach Community Center will terminate on December 31 , 1985. As a result of the Montgomery Area annexation the City desires to renew the agreement through the fiscal 85-86 year. Since limited financial information was available in preparing the Montgomery budget, staff erroneously used the area equipment and supplies budget to determine existing grounds maintenance costs. It was recently discovered that the County has allowed MAAC to keep all facility rental fees in order to pay for building and grounds maintenance. In discussions with MAAC personnel it has been determined that the original $5,500, six (6) month maintenance cost is too low and would not provide for the same level of service that presently exists. In direct negotiations with MAAC, it has been determined that an additional $2,000 would be necessary to retain their services, bringing the total operating costs for half a year to $7,500. The six (6) month maintenance contract will allow staff the time necessary to study and analyze the quality of service being provided. Award of the contract to MAAC will also enable this department to make a smoother transition in providing services to this newly annexed area. by,the City :`Nuncta o -77- Page 2, Item 13 Meeting Date 12/17/85 The basic maintenance agreement requires the MAAC project to provide the following services: 1 .
