Citywide Pest, Wildlife and Bird/Bat Control Contract Amendment (26-1847)

Applies if: You perform or subcontract pest, wildlife, or bird/bat control work for the city

Why now: The item is an amendment to an existing bid (IFB 24-0017) under Ordinance S-53290 and is listed as Agenda Ready for the City Council Formal Meeting on 2026-11-04.

What to do: Request the original invitation for bid and the proposed amendment text to see what scope, such as bird and bat management or wildlife relocation, is being added or extended. If the amendment shifts work to the incumbent, you will have little chance to compete until the next solicitation.

Act before: After the next material record update

Why now: The only record is the Finance Department's Agenda Ready listing for IFB 24-0017 (Ordinance S-53290) on 2026-11-04, which states no amount, vendor, or justification.

What to do: Ask the Finance Department for the amendment's dollar value, the original contract value, and the reason for the change. The agenda listing gives no figures, so the public cannot tell how much the citywide contract is growing.

Act before: After the requested records are produced
