Martin, Clerk <br />APPROVE TERMINATION OF CONTRACT — GARDA <br />Ms. Greene requested the Board move ahead on the agenda to the two additions noted to allow <br />for Attorney Paul Singleton to leave for another meeting. Mr. Singleton stated Water Works <br />contracted with Garda for the pick -up of money back in March of 2012. He stated in March of <br />2013, it was noted that they were failing to perform the terms of their contract due to missed <br />pick -ups, transfer of money in clear bags, and failure to provide change for Water Works. Mr. <br />Singleton stated the contract was originally for $364.00 per month, gradually increased to <br />$379.00 per month, and expires in March of 2014. He stated the City reached out to Garda in <br />writing in April about their failure to perform, and since then there have been four (4) additional <br />occasions of non - performance. When the City notified them, Mr. Singleton stated, Garda had <br />thirty (30) days to correct their problems. He explained that time limit expired yesterday, so <br />Water Works is requesting to terminate the contract. Ms. Greene added that once the letter went <br />out of failure to perform, their performance got worse. She noted their resolution was to provide <br />credits, causing problems with Water Works with no change available. She stated they have been <br />contacted by letter, and there have been discussions with no resolution. Ms. Greene stated their <br />contract won't be terminated until a replacement company is lined up. She noted only one <br />company was found so far that offers the same service. Upon a motion by Mr. Gilot, seconded by <br />Mr. Relos and carried, the Board approved the termination of the contract with Garda. <br />APPROVE PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT — WATER WORKS MONEY PICK- <br />UP <br />Ms. Greene stated related to the previous Board action, the request is for the Board to approve an <br />agreement with a company yet to be determined, to replace Garda for the pick -up of money at <br />Water Works. Therefore, upon a motion by Mr. Gilot, seconded by Mr. Relos and carried, the <br />
