Strateoic Plan Obiective This matter is not related to any section within the City of Palm Desert's Strategic Plan. Background Wurm's Janitorial Services, Inc has provided monthly janitorial services to the Palm Desert Police Substation (73-520 Fred Waring Drive) since 2011. In September 2013, the Palm Desert City Council awarded Wurm's an annual contract and subsequently approved two one year extensions. This contract expired on June 30, 2016, and the Council authorized (1) going out to bid and (2) a three month extension to the agreement through October 1, 2016. The Riverside County Sherriff's Department occupies both floors of this facility. Sheriff Communications (911 dispatch) and Investigations (Homicide, Narcotics, etc.) Divisions are housed at the Substation. The County and City entered into a lease agreement, and the City has responsibility for maintenance operations, including janitorial services. The County provides a lease payment to the City that is calculated to cover maintenance operations and fair market lease. Please note that the building totals approximately 25,000 square feet. As noted, Staff recently advertised bids for these services as part of a three year agreement, with two annual extensions. As this is a secured and essential public safety facility, any janitorial maintenance staff has to undergo and pass a thorough background check by the Sheriff's Department. The selected vendor has the appropriate security clearance.
