Agreement with Pest Options, Inc. to provide integrated pest management and pest control <br />services at city parks and facilities, Santa Ana Zoo and Civic Center <br />January 21, 2020 <br />Page 2 <br />The City proposes to enter into a four-year agreement with Pest Options, Inc. for the service of <br />Districts 1, 2, 3, and 4, Santa Ana Zoo and the Civic Center (Exhibit 1). The PRCSA attempts to <br />have one company per district, but due to the number of proposals received and the capacity of <br />the company, PRCSA recommends that having the Pest Options, Inc. perform the work would be <br />in the best interest of the City. <br />STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT <br />Approval of this item allows the City to meet Goal #6 - Community Facilities & Infrastructure, <br />Objective #1 (Establish and maintain a Community Investment Plan for all City assets), Strategy B <br />(equitably maintain existing streets and associated assets in a state of good repair so they are <br />clean, safe and aesthetically pleasing for all users). <br />FISCAL IMPACT <br />The Fiscal Year (FY) 2019-20 budget contains new allocations in alignment with Measure X funding <br />including increased funding in the PRCSA for improving the scope of contract services for <br />landscaping, trees, lakes, ball diamonds, and custodial. <br />Originally, the PRCSA had funding to provide pest control services, but eventually eliminated the <br />service due to budgetary reductions. During the process of implementing integrated pest <br />management and pest control services again, use of excess funds from the landscape maintenance <br />budget was anticipated to cover the cost. However, the cost in landscape maintenance and in -field <br />ball diamond maintenance came in higher than anticipated and there is little funding available for <br />this service. The PRCSA and the Civic Center have enough funding for FY 2019-20 to cover the <br />increased cost for the remainder the fiscal year. Additional funding for the PRCSA ($664,000) and <br />Civic Center ($61,500) is required to continue the service agreement in FY 20-21 and beyond. <br />Funds are available in the following accounts for the specified fiscal year of the initial term: <br />Fiscal <br />Accounting <br />Fund <br />Accounting Unit, Account <br />Amount <br />Year <br />Unit -Account # <br />Description <br />Description <br />FY 19-20 <br />01113250- <br />General Fund <br />PRCSA-Park Facilities, <br />$286,682.57 <br />62320 <br />Maint. & Repair / Bldng. & <br />Ground <br />FY 19-20 <br />01113220- <br />General Fund <br />PRCSA-Zoo, <br />$15,788.67 <br />62300 <br />Contract Services -Professional <br />FY 19-20 <br />07413250- <br />Civic Center <br />PRCSA-Civic Center Reg. <br />$25,692.79 <br />62320 <br />Fund <br />Maint., <br />Maint. & Repair / Bldng. & <br />Ground <br />Total FY 19-20 <br />$328,164.03 <br />25E-2 <br />
