Job seekers make use of a public <br />computer lab, workshops and job fairs. Attendance averages about 150 visits per day, with <br />significant increases when job fairs are hosted. Security guard services are needed to assist in the <br />enforcement of SAWC Center code of conduct, policies and procedures, ensure that patrons are <br />directed to appropriate areas as needed during public events, and deter any acts that interfere or <br />disrupt SAWC activities. <br />To provide security guard services at the SAWC, staff recommends amending the City's current <br />Agreement to Provide Security Guard Services with U.S. Security Associates that was procured <br />through a formal and competitive Request for Proposal process. On May 16, 2017, City Council <br />entered into an agreement with U.S. Security Associates in the amount of $1,154,532 to provide <br />unarmed security guard services for various City facilities through May 31, 2020. A First <br />Amendment was approved by City Council on December 19, 2017 to increase the existing contract <br />contingency fee by $17,255 to provide temporary security services at an additional site. <br />2513-1 <br />
