HomeMy WebLinkAboutMINUTES - 07082014 - C.70RECOMMENDATION(S): APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the County Clerk-Recorder, or designee, to execute a contract with Metropolitan Van and Storage, Inc., in an amount not to exceed $880,000 for the delivery, pick up and storage of election supplies and equipment for the period May 1, 2014 through December 31, 2015. FISCAL IMPACT: The amount of the contract will not exceed $880,000 an is included in the 2013-14 and 2014-15 General Fund budgets. The cost of drayage is a reimbursable election cost and a portion is reimbursed by those agencies for whom the County conducts elections. BACKGROUND: Bulky and heavy supplies and voting equipment must be delivered to polling locations, set up and later retrieved for each election the County conducts. Metropolitan has provided these drayage services for many years and this contract renews their services for the same scope of work as in the past. Metropolitan also stores much of the bulky election equipment at its location between elections, saving the department storage space. CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION: If the request is not approved, the Department will have to find alternative sources for these services, as it does not have the internal capacity to store or deliver the supplies and equipment.
