In addition to the base contract of <br />$429,840, the contract also allows for a 10 percent ($42,984) contingency. <br />The recommended action will approve the contingency amount and an <br />additional $13,016 to pay for work associated with winter rain and wind <br />related damages. This amount will cover the cost of work performed during <br />the course of the contract and anticipated before the June 30, 2005 <br />termination date. <br /> <br />The amendment will terminate the existing contract on June 30, 2005. In <br />addition, the amendment modifies the indemnification and additional insured <br />endorsement language to clarify the roles of the City and DMS related to <br />park safety inspections. A request for proposal process for a new park <br />landscape and grounds maintenance agreement is underway and a new agreement <br />will take effect July 1, 2005. <br /> <br />22A-1 <br />
