Second Amendment to Agreement with G4S May 20, 2014 Page 2 implemented enhanced security measures, including security guard services at City Hall Monday through Friday from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m., and two guards stationed at all City Council meetings. The security services provided by G4S at City Hall and the SARTC will require officers of a higher service level than at other City locations because of the diverse requirements and higher risk associated with these duties. Also, for this renewal, G4S is requesting a rate increase for the first time in 3 years which will allow the company to provide, among other things, merit increases to tenured officers assigned to City locations, and medical benefits for all officers assigned to the contract in accordance with the Affordable Healthcare Act. Overall, the combined rate increase for security services at the SARTC, Main Library, Newhope Library, Santa Ana Zoo, Corporate Yard, and Centennial Park is 4.56% above 2011 -2014 rates. A majority of the additional $87,055 annual cost for the enhanced services at City Hall and during City Council meetings is being reallocated from the existing contingency for "As Needed" services. The result is a total of increase of only $62,978.28 from previous years, based on the following annual rates: SARTC $ 241,625 Libraries $ 68,983 Centennial Park $ 18,169 City Yard $ 98,483 Zoo $ 7,928 City Hall $ 87,055 Homeland Security $ 20,000 Contin enc $ 25,000 Not to Exceed $ 567,243 G4S has exceeded staff expectations and has consistently demonstrated the ability to provide a high standard of service. Staff recommends approval of the recommended action. FISCAL IMPACT Funds are available in the various department Contract Services- Professional accounts (62300). Edwin "William" Galvez, P.E.
