Chief Executive Officer’s Report Mr. Banta provided an update that included the following: Clean Air Campaign Winners Valley Metro Seeks Input on Proposed April 2016 Service Changes Legislative Update Cancellation of the December TMC/RMC meetings Introduction of Michael Minnaugh Ms. Sorrell said I'd just like to say something in Steve's comments and recognize the Commute Solution staff for the lunch, for the Clean Air Lunch. They always do a great job, but this year the speaker was probably the best luncheon speaker. You know, we go to a lot of luncheons and dinners and this was one of the most -- the best I've heard in a really long time. He was really great. You don't really hear a lot of speakers talking about worm poop at the luncheon. Mr. Banta said thank you very much. We appreciate that. 4. Consent Agenda Chair Taylor said the next item on the agenda is the consent agenda. And Steve will introduce the items. Mr. Banta said we have six items on consent today for your consideration and action to advance before the Board for approval. Item 4A - Renewal of Commercial Property and Liability Insurance Coverage Annually we renew this insurance process. It is a contract in an amount not to exceed $1.6 million dollars. Of that $236,000 is the RPTA obligation. It is for our insurance needs. The coverage term begins December 1st, 2015, through November 30th, 2016. Item 4B - Armored Car Services Contract Award This is the first time we've been able to consolidate the Valley Metro Rail and the RPTA Armored Consider Services Contract Award. It is a total term of three years and six months. This is to coincide the expiration of both to make sure they expire at the same time. It is for $1.1 million dollars and the RPTA portion will not exceed $247,000. The RPTA portion of the contract includes collecting bus fare revenue from Mesa and Tempe operations facilities and the TVMs along the BRT corridor, transporting fare revenue back to the cash processing center, and ultimately the regional bank for monthly fare revenue distribution. 2 The armored car services for bus was $134,000. The cost for the first year of the new contract is actually $69,000. Savings is from efficiency and the consolidation of the two contracts. Item No. 4C - Intergovernmental Agreements with the City of Phoenix for FTA pass- through grants They execute IGAs with the City of Phoenix to allow Valley Metro to be reimbursed for eligible activities. Some examples would be enhanced mobility for our seniors and individuals with disabilities, state of good repair, high-capacity bus program, preventive maintenance, and operating support, and associated transit improvements for routes in the southwest valley. Item No. 4D - Operations Cleaning Services Contract Award We are asking for approval to submit to the Board and execute a contract with DMS Facility Services to provide operations cleaning services effective January 1st, 2016, for a total term of five years: 3-year base contract, plus one 2-year renewal option.
