Prepare a request for proposals for security services and
determine whether or not the adj acent commercial property
owners would be willing to share in the cost of these
services.
Analyst Romero advised that the Staff is continuing to pursue the
Board's direction on Items #1 through #3, however, Item #4 was
completed.
The Request For Proposal on Item #4, was given to nineteen firms.
Two companies responded to the proposal. In addition, a proposal
from Target Services submitted prior to the Request For Proposal
process, was included in the evaluation.
A matrix was presented to illustrate the responses that were
received.
Board Member Gaines noted that Target Services is a "Caretaker
Service" as opposed to a Guard Service.
David Aring from A.D.T. Security Company was present and told the
Board his company had many years of experience in dealing with
these types of problems.
Mr. Aring told the Board he felt his company could deal with the
problem and have it taken care of in 3 months time. He also said
there may be a need for an ongoing guard service but felt it would
be very minimal after the initial clean up.
Ms. Romero asked the Board for some direction.
Board Member Omsted asked whether the State requires that a level
be maintained for reserves and how much money is available for this
kind of effort should it be pursued? Further, at what level are
property owners being held responsible for keeping the adjacent
property clean?
Analyst Romero stated letters had been sent to property owners
regarding their interest in participating in the efforts and had
received one response.
The Board asked the Staff to re-contact the property owners.
Board Member Gaines suggested that the City talk to the Federal
Government regarding a Holding Center such that people who submit
papers to apply for asylum, must go into the Holding Center.
