Subject: Vintage Pointe Caretaker Contract
At the October 17, 2007 council meeting the City Council i°emoved a
purchase order from the approval list and asked For a resolution approving
the award of a contract for caretaker services at Vintage Pointe Manor in
keeping with the process that has been done in the past.
The reason this matter was included as a purchase order rather than a
resolution is because the process for obtaining the contract was different
than in prior years. Normally the administration only brings resolutions for
contract award if a formal bid process is used.. The formal bid process is
only needed for awards in excess of X25,000.
A request for proposal was solicited as we have done in the past, but no
proposals were received. A second attempt to find a contractor was made by
placing an advertisement in the newspaper. This extended process put us
right up against the depat-ture date of the prior contractor and it was
important to have a new contractor in place as soon as possible.
Four interested parties responded. Each party was interviewed and Pleezers
Enterprise was selected to be the contractor at $2,000 per month, T`he
contract period is to run from October 1, 2007 to June 30, 2008.
Since the process to obtain the contractor was not a formal bid process and
given the fact that the amotmt of the contract was Less than the amount that
requires the formal bid process, the administration forwarded a purchase
order to council rather than a resolution.
The resolution in the packet is essentially ratifying action that the
administration has already taken due to the need to have the contractor in
place. Although the matter clearly could he done by approval of an $18,000
purchase order, we are including this resolution at the request of the Council.
