RECOMMENDED ACTION
Renew the contract with Leslee Scott, Inc. for the purchase inmate bath
towels and linens for a one-year period in an annual amount to exceed
$10,750.
DISCUSSION
The City of Santa Ana maintains a 480-bed holding facility which houses
federal, Santa Ana, and juvenile inmates. Under Title 15 of the Board of
Corrections Minimum Standards for Jails, the Santa Ana Holding Facility is
required to provide clean bath towels and linen to all inmates upon
incarceration and must provide an exchange of clean linen on a weekly basis
while the inmates are in custody. Each inmate is provided with one
blanket, two sheets, one pillowcase, and one towel. In order to maintain
sufficient inventory of bath towels and linens to meet the mandated
requirement and allow for continuous supply during the laundering and
exchange process, staff requests quarterly shipments.
On September 6, 2005, the City Council awarded a contract to Leslee Scott,
Inc. for a one-year period with provision for two, one-year renewals. The
vendor has agreed to renew the contract; however, the vendor has requested
a two percent increase in pricing due to manufacturer price increases. The
vendor has performed satisfactorily during the past contract period and
staff recommends the first renewal of the contract.
FISCAL IMPACT
Funds are available in the Police Property & Facilities Operating Materials
& Supplies account (account no. 11-343-6391).
