Hyder's monthly management fee of$65/unit, which totals $1,040 monthly for all sixteen units, includes full property management services. Additionally, Hyder retains in-house maintenance staff to conduct small repairs, while utilizing outside vendors for more specific or specialized work. The cost for maintenance service staff is estimated at $420 monthly for all sixteen units and will be utilized on an as- needed basis. Other operating costs, such as the Homeowner's Association Fee, property insurance and utilities are provided by outside vendors "at cost" to the Housing Authority. These expenses are paid directly by the EHA and are not included in this request. The amount requested for the contract is currently available in the approved budget for Pacific Pines. The operating budget for Pacific Pines was approved by the City Council with the City's FY 2014/15 — FY 2018/19 Operating and Capital Budgets on May 28, 2014.
