the Operating Budget for each respective facility.
DESCRIPTION:
On August 13, 1990, the City Council authorized Staff to advertise for bids
for City Facilities Janitorial Services. This contract provides janitorial
services for the Civic Center, Shannon Community Center, and Senior Center.
The City's previous contractor, Black and White Building Maintenance,
resigned effective August 30th, and an interim janitorial contractor has been
providing service since that time. The successful bidder for this annual
contract will begin on October 1st.
The City received seven bids for this work, the costs of which are shown in
Exhibit 1. The low bidder is Shular's and Sons with an an aggregate bid of
$4,050 per month. Shular' s and Sons' monthly cost for the Civic Center is
somewhat lower than the previous contractor' s; however, the costs for the
Shannon Center and Senior Center are higher. Since Black and White' s level
of service to the Shannon Center and Senior Center was less than adequate,
Staff feels that a higher cost for those facilities is warranted.
Staff has reviewed the low bidder' s proposal and checked with references and
recommends that the City Council (1) adopt the resolution awarding the
contract to Shular's and Sons and (2) authorize the Mayor to execute the
agreement.

Satisfactory evidence shall be presented to the City and it shall be
established that the non-performance is not due to the fault or negligence of
the party not performing.

33. Contractor shall take all responsibility for the work, shall bear all
losses and damages directly or indirectly resulting to him, to any
subcontractor, to the City, to City Officers and employees, or to parties
designated by the City, on account of the performance or character of the
work, unforeseen difficulties, accidents, occurrences, or other causes

City, its officers, officials, directors, employees, and agents from and
against any or all loss, liability, expense, claim, costs (including costs of

or indirectly arising from the performance of the work. This paragraph shall
Page 8 of Agreement
not be construed to exempt the City, its employees and officers from its own
fraud, willful injury, or violation of law, whether willful or negligent. FOr
purposes of Section 2782 of the Civil Code, the parties hereto recognize and
agree that this agreement is not a construction contract. By execution of
