RECOMMENDED ACTION
Renew the contract with SVM, LP for the purchase of prepaid gasoline cards for a one-year
period in the annual amount not to exceed $35,000, subject to non-substantive changes
approved by the City Manager and City Attorney.
DISCUSSION
The Community Development Agency's Santa Ana W/O/R/K Center manages several programs
including the Workforce Investment Act (WIA). Participant clients are offered supportive services
including gasoline vouchers to facilitate their ability to find and retain employment. The prepaid
gasoline-only card program enables clients to purchase competitively priced gasoline at their
local neighborhood gas stations as opposed to a single station. Gasoline cards have been
approved as an eligible expense under guidelines of the WIA grants. Annually, the W/O/R/K
Center issues over 400 prepaid gasoline cards in the amount of $50 to its participates.
On December 9, 2009, the City Council awarded a contract to SVM, LP for a two-year period
with provision for two one-year renewals. As the vendor has performed satisfactorily during the
past contract period, staff recommends the second renewal of the contract.
FISCAL IMPACT
Funds in the amount of $30,000 are available in the Community Development W/O/R/K Center
accounts One Stop Program (12318751-69143), WIA Adult 09-10 (no. 12318753-69143), WIA
