Motion carries. Item 15 Report from Long Beach Airport Recommendation to execute a contract with ABM Parking Services for airport parking operations and management at the Long Beach Airport in an annual amount not to exceed $1 million. City District five Councilman Mongo. So I'm hoping that the staff report includes the $40,000 a month we'll be saving. Brian Francis will give that staff report. Awesome. Good evening there, Garcia. Members of council this evening were requesting city council approval to enter into contract negotiations with ABM Parking Services to provide airport parking operations and management of the airport's public parking facilities. These operations comprise lot A, Lot B and the employee parking lots. The airport worked with the purchasing department and advertised a request for proposals on August 27th, 2015 of nearly 4000 potential proposals. 37 download of the RFP for the local outreach was executed via the purchasing department as well. Eight proposals were received on October 15th, 2015. Each complete proposal was evaluated by a selection committee based on demonstrated competence, experience and performance of comparable engagements. Reasonableness of cost expertize and availability of key personnel, financial stability and conformance with the RFP terms. The committee determined that ABM Parking Services of Los Angeles, California offered the best proposal to provide the service at Long Beach Airport. ABM operates at airports nationwide, across the spectrum in terms of size. It is provided parking management services at an airport for the past decade and has maintained a good level of customer service throughout. The intent to award was posted by the Purchasing Department on January 12th, 2016 and no protests were received by the January 17th deadline. The contract is for a period of three years and an amount not to exceed $1,054,122, with a 25% contingency in the amount of $263,531. Requesting authorization of a 25% contingency as we feel it is the appropriate and necessary amount to accommodate additional services requested of ABM during the life of this agreement, which may include software upgrades, replacement of equipment, staffing, augmentation and unforeseen maintenance and repairs, among other things. And it's Councilwoman Mongo. I mentioned at the beginning of this item, the current contract amount or the current amount that we're paying on an annual basis is roughly $1.5 million. And again, as presented to you this evening, this contract is for a three year period of three years and an amount not to exceed $1,054,122 per year. So that would be a savings over the current arrangement. And that concludes my staff report. So I want to thank you for your work on this. I know that this hadn't been scheduled and or executed in quite a long time. I feel that in the amount of time we've been working together, we've been reconciling many issues that hadn't been touched in quite a long time, and I hope to wrap many of those up shortly. I know that there were questions related to the proposal and the lack of innovation and or technology in it. But I will say that while I wish there was more technology, I think that while the airport is running in the lean as it can possibly be, I think that the movement towards a reduction in cost is really a good step in the right direction. I think that's the way that the bid should be cherished and that since it is only a three year, that the airport will look very different in three years, hopefully in terms of the economy and hopefully oil prices and we'll see what that looks like. And then perhaps people will be driving their cars and parking them at the airport again, which will then increase our revenue in parking, which is currently down. So while I was in many discussions today with airport stakeholders and residents who live near the airport specifically asking about those technologies, I think at this time this is the prudent way to go. And I will be asking my colleagues to support this item. Thank you, Councilwoman Mongo. Councilman Austin. Yes. Thank you very much. I am to pleased to see that this will this contract will actually save us as a city. But I think it saves us as an airport because as I understand it, the revenues for this, for the airport parking stays within the airport fund, is that correct? Yes, sir, that's correct. All right. So there is no tangible benefit to the general fund for this contract, right? That is correct. The all the revenues generated from parking services, as well as other revenue generation on airport remain at airport. Aside from the various arrangements we have with other city departments for for services rendered. Okay. Thank you. I'll be supportive of this because I think it's a prudent move for the airport, but I just wanted to make that distinguishable difference. Thank you. Thank you. Is there any public comment on item 50? CNN members cast your vote. Basically alone, though. I mean. Yes. Motion carries.
