BOARD OF SUPERVISORS FROM: Barton J. Gilbert, Director of General Services Contra Costa DATE: October 20, 1998 County SUBJECT: FINDING CERTAIN'SITES REMOTE, ADOPTING POLICY REGARDING CUSTODIAL �7 SERVICES CONTRACTS, AND AUTHORIZING THE COUNTY PURCHASING AGENT TO EXECUTE CONTRACTS FOR CUSTODIAL SERVICES SPECIFIC REQUESTS OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION RECOMMENDATION: I. MAKE FINDING, under Section 31040 of the California Government Code, that the locations identified on Attachment A, for the purposes of building cleaning services, are remote from available County employee resources and that the County's economic interests are served by contracts rather than by paying additional travel expenses to existing County employees. 2. ADOPT policy (Attachment B) establishing that janitorial services contractors who provide services to Contra Costa County shall be required to pay their employees prevailing wages and benefits for contracted custodial services, as determined by the State Director of Industrial Relations for Contra Costa County. 3. AUTHORIZE the Purchasing Agent to execute three contracts for custodial services in various geographical areas within the County for a total amount of$188,040 for the period November iI, 1998, through October 31, 2400, with a two-year option to continue the contracts, adding or deleting sites as required to do County business through October 31, 2002. BACKGROUND: Representatives from the General Services Department and Contra Costa County Employees Association Local No. I have met and conferred on criteria and have reached agreement on the sites (Attachment A) which we are requesting the Board to declare remote. Further, we agreed that we would meet and discuss with them any additional sites, which might come into the County inventory prior to declaring them; remote. We also agreed that, if any of these sites become no longer remote, we would be willing to modify the site list. A few childcare sites in Richmond and San Pablo still are being discussed by Local No. I and the Community Services Department, and no agreement has been reached regarding these locations. , 6dt CONTINUED ON ATTACHMENT:—X_YES SIGNATURE: Wa `RECOMMENDATION OF COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR RECOMMENDATION OF BOARD COMMITTEE APPROVE OTHER SIGNATURE,(S): ACTION OF BOARD ON ' APPROVED AS RECOMMENDED VOTE OF SUPERVISORS UNANIMOUS(ASSENT AYES: NOES: ABSENTS: v ABSTAIN: MEDIA CONTACT: Mickey Davis-313-7100 CC: Genera Services Department I HEREBY CERTIFY THAT THIS IS A TRUE Administration AND CORRECT COPY OF AN ACTION TAKEN Purchasing AND ENTERED ON THE MINUTES OF THE BOARD Accounting OF SUPERVISORS ON THE DATE SHOWN, County Auditor-Controller ATTESTED rsr PHIL BATCHELOR CLERK OF TIME BOARD OF SUPERVISORS AND COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR BY �' DEPUTY FAMPrevaiNwp janitorial contracts.doc Finning Certain Sites Remote, Adopting Policy Regarding Custodial Services Contracts, and Authorizing the County Purchasing Agent to Execute Contracts for Custodial Services—Board Order—Page 2 California Government Cade Section 31000 provides that the Beard of Supervisors may contract for services on behalf of the County, and that such services "may include maintenance or custodial matters if the board finds that the site is remote from available county employee resources and that the county's economic interests are served by such a contract..." Those sites which we are requesting the Board to declare remote for purposes of custodial services only are either: a) In geographical locations which are away from the County's government centers, e.g., Oakley, Brentwood, Lafayette, Moraga,Kensington. b) Buildings/facilities which are small and which are budgeted for few hours of custodial service, making it inefficient to do with County staff', for example, health facilities such as the Tri-cities Discovery Center in Pinole. c) Special use facilities and/or facilities where private tenants share leased space with County operations, such as some daycare centers, the Contra Costa County Health Club in Martinez, and some Health Services locations. The General Services Department has surveyed other Bay Area government agencies to determine their policies regarding the payment of "area wages" and providing health benefits to custodial contractors. The County Administrator's Office and County Counsel have been consulted regarding this issue. We are recommending the adoption of a policy modeled on that of Santa Clara County which uses the current rate for Public Utilities Janitor/Cleaner within the County as set forth by the Director of the State Department of Industrial Relations. The current rate for Contra Costa County has been determined to be $7.34 per hour for wages, and $1.01 to $1.52 per hour, depending on length of service, for health benefits, with provisions for paid vacation, holiday pay, paid sick leave, and overtime. With Board approval, all current and prospective custodial contractors will be required to meet these rates, and all contracts shall include language establishing these minimum wages and benefits. FISCAL IMPACT: There is no additional funding required to implement the currently-bid contracts for custodial services, and the currently-bid contracts will provide savings over the previous contracts at an estimated overall savings of 31 percent.
