RE:
Ratifying Expenditures with Enviro-Master South Florida
RECOMMENDATION:
This item is presented for your consideration
REASONS:
In March 2020, Governor DeSantis declared a public health
emergency due to the COVID-19 pandemic. At that time, the City also
declared a state of emergency, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic,
and began looking into ways to ensure the safety and well-being of our
employees and visitors to our facilities.
We began working with Enviro-Master of South Florida, to perform
weekly disinfection of City facilities and assets, including vehicles,
shuttle buses, and bus shelters. The product used, Vital Oxide, has
been approved by the EPA for use against SARS-CoV-2, the
coronavirus that causes COVID-19.
We began utilizing the service in March, and continued use of this
service weekly, until Friday, September 3rd. We now have purchased
the materials to be able to continue to this work in-house.
This resolution is to ratify the expenditures with this company during
that time, under the declared state of emergency, for an amount not to
exceed $110,000.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
Enviro-Master performed these services at Four Cents ($0.04) per
square foot. While comparing pricing with other companies providing
similar service, this was the lowest price we found.
Under the current declared state of emergency, the City can utilize the
emergency exemption to the competitive bidding requirements
provided for in the code, 62-13(D):
Purchases arising out of or because of emergencies which shall be
defined as a situation, occurrence or matter necessitating immediate
or quick action and not permitting adequate time to utilize the
competitive bidding process.
FUNDING SOURCE:
The funding is available in various accounts
