DISCUSSION and BACKGROUND Background: Nieves Landscape has been under a maintenance service agreement with the City for maintenance of City Facilities and Rights of Way since 2011. The current Agreement has a five -year term and was intended to run through FY 15 -16. Discussion: Several changes to the Agreement were necessary to add scope and dollar amount due to the acquisition of properties by the City from the Successor Agency and costs incurred in FY 13 -14 due to extraordinary repairs and replacements of irrigation and landscapes. Funding for maintenance of the added facilities was appropriated in FY 13 -14 when the properties transferred, and is included in the proposed FY 14 -15 budget. Due to these changes, a new agreement has been drafted. The unit costs in the original agreement as well as all other aspects of the specifications and scope, which are on record in the City Clerk's office, will be in effect in this new Agreement. The new Agreement with Nieves will have a term beginning June 1, 2014 to capture the last month of the current fiscal year to cover the cost and scope for extraordinary repairs in this current FY. The additional costs due to extraordinary repairs in FY 13 -14 are $13,500 and are available in the FY 13 -14 appropriation. Upon approval of the FY 14 -15 budget, funds will be available for the remainder of the first term which will end on June 30, 3015 in the amount of $216,968.53, including $30,969.97 for the additional costs related to acquisition of Successor Agency properties and a Cost of Living Adjustment (COLA). The Agreement has an option for a second term through FY 15 -16 and funds will be available upon an approved FY 15 -16 budget in the amount of $220,857.90 which includes a COLA. 8.
