The purpose of this bid is to establish fixed annual pricing for janitorial and waste/trash
removal services to be performed at various parks, medians, right-of-ways, Park facilities,
open spaces and athletic complexes. Regent Services' contract was due to expire this
year, but they have agreed to extend for one year with no increase in pricing as a special
exception due to lake flooding.
Potential bidders will not be able to visit many of the Lake Park sites to determine a fair bid
price until flood waters recede. By allowing a one year extension, the lake levels hopefully
will recede enough to allow access to facilities prior to publishing a new bid.
Bids were taken in accordance with Local Government Code Chapter 252, Subchapter B,
Section 252.021 (a) and Section 252.041 (a). The bid advertisement was posted in the
Fort Worth Star Telegram on January 20 and 27, 2011. The contract was for an initial one-
year period with four one-year renewal options. This approval request is for an extension
of one year.
Staff recommends approval.
