STAFF REPORT

EXTENSION OF AUTHORITY TO CONTRACT FOR SECURITY
SERVICES AT ARROW VISTA SUBDIVISION
Mega Forces Security has been providing security needs within the Arrow Vista subdivision. Presently there
are two (2) bicycle guards in the new construction areas and one (1) armed guard at the sales office. The third
guard (armed) was necessitated after the incident with a Sales Agent, who was terminated. During an ensuing
altercation following the termination, threats were made to the personal safety of staff, the developer's
representatives and of physical damage to the property. It was deemed prudent to add a third armed guard
for 24-hours a day to prevent such occurrences. This, in turn, accelerated the budget authority at a much faster
pace, but the action was successful in defusing or discouraging all threats and/or acts of hostility.
However, as a result of the additional employee on the payroll, the Agency's purchase order for $22,000 and
spending authorization have been prematurely exhausted. The Economic Development Agency (EDA) is
spending in excess of $26,280 per month to ensure the protection of this project and the Agency presently owes
Mega Forces a total of$36,744 for its services incurred at Arrow Vista's subdivision.
In the interest of continuity of service, staff requests that Community Development Commission approve
Agency staff authorization to pay existing billings for services rendered in the amount of $36,744 and extend
the Mega Forces Contract for ninety (90) days. However, staff feels that only the two unarmed guards on a 24-
hour a day basis are now necessary. The extension will enable Agency staff time to request bids and secure a
new contract for security services.
Based upon the foregoing, staff reconunends adoption of form motion.
