Staff has developed a good working relationship with their staff. They know what the City's needs and expectations are for janitorial services. The proposed cost for this contract represents a 4.3% increase from the past contract costs. However, this cost increase is a result of a 19% increase in the total square footage of City buildings under this contract to 229,472 square feet. Staff has adjusted the frequency of service on some buildings from seven days to six days per week which contributes to the lower cost increase rather than the square foot increase, but the cost per square foot is reduced in is contract compared to the cost for the past contract.
