AMENDMENT TO CONTRACT FOR BUS CHARTER SERVICES
Administrative Services
RECOMMENDED ACTION
City Council authorize the City Manager or designee to approve an amendment to the contract of
Laidlaw Education Services, in the amount of $68,773.66, and a contingency of 10% at
$6,877.36, from account number 7291-8110.
BACKGROUND
hi December 2004, a bid was conducted for charter bus service to be used by Community
Services and the Youth and Family Programs. The contract was awarded to Laidlaw Educational
Service on January 5, 2005 and runs through January 2006. Community Services has used
Laidlaw Educational Service frequently and has been satisfied with their service. In February
2005, Recreation completed the day camp schedule requirements for charter bus service. Since
the City staff had just completed a formal bid for charter bus service, staff concluded that it
would save the time and expense of duplicating the bid and contract process, to amend the
original Laidlaw contract to include the day camp bus charter services requirements.
ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS
Other action as determined by the City Council.
FISCAL IMPACT
FY 04/05 funds for this expenditure in the amount of $75,651.02 are budgeted in account number
7291-8110.
