Their monthly maintenance rate was $7,200 per month, the current provider Able Services submitted a monthly maintenance rate of $8,500 per month.

Mayor Davis voiced conçerns of the effect on current employees by transitioning to a new provider for janitorial services, and if there were no issues with the current service, City Attorney Hobbs stated if the City Council desired to reject all bids that a determination should be made based on findings that selecting the current contractor would be in the City's best interest, and to return an item at a future date to award the contract. He cautioned that such action was legally defensible, but untested.

He stated that the representative from Page & Tumnbull, the consultant that aided the City with the Historic Context Statement, was not able to attend the meeting tonight, but would provide a presentation summarizing the document and process during the annual update of the Historic Preservation Committee (HPC) scheduled for early 2013. Staff requested action to accept the document be considered tonight. The Historic Context Statement provided a document of the City's history through development patterns, identifying property types and significant themes and trends over time. The document would serve as a tool to better understand the City's historic resources, and would be used to evaluate if a property held eligibility as a historic resource. The document was not a governing document that would dictate what a land owner could or could not do with a property, nor dictate the architecture or design of a building, but it assisted in making a basis for determinations of future preservation. The City had received grant funding based on eligibility as a Certified Local Government to draft the Historic Context Statement, and hired the consultant Page & Turnbull to assist staff and the Historic Preservation Committee in conducting public workshops, conducting site surveys, and drafting the document. Mr. Park noted approximately 80 properties had been surveyed, primarily in the area of Old Town Elk Grove. Sara Johnson shared her experience as a member of the HPC with the process of creating the Elk Grove Historic Context Statement, praising the process and the work of the consultant. She included that the document was a starting point, and the HPC intended to expand the scope of properties surveyed beyond those in Old Town as funding became available.
