RECOMMENDED ACTION
Renew the contract with JFK Transportation Company to provide transportation services for the
Senior Centers for a one-year period in an annual amount not to exceed $50,000.
DISCUSSION
The Parks, Recreation and Community Services Agency (PRCSA) provides a full scope of senior
services including: health and fitness classes, volunteer opportunities, medical and legal
consultations, home delivered and on-site meal programs. Additionally, PRCSA arranges daily
transportation services between the homes of seniors and the City's Senior Centers, daily
shopping trips and monthly excursions to local venues. The vehicles make approximately 2,000
round trips a month and are specially designed to accommodate individuals with disabilities.
On July 6, 2009, the City Council awarded a contract to JFK Transportation Company for a one-
year period, with provisions for four one-year renewals. JFK Transportation Company, a Santa
Ana vendor, has performed satisfactorily during the past contract period; however the vendor has
requested a 20 percent increase after maintaining their rates for three years. Higher costs for fuel
and driver wages, including cost of living increases, have impacted the budget requiring this
increase. The Bureau of Labor Statistics verifies transportation costs have increased 20 percent
over the past three years. Staff recommends the third renewal of the contract. The annual
amount is based upon past usage and staff's projection for the next year.
FISCAL IMPACT
Funds are available in the Parks, Recreation & Community Services Recreation (accounting unit
01113230-62300).
