Citywide Asbestos Abatement and Demolition Contract (26-3195A)

Context: The approval states the financing is subject to annual appropriations, including $6,425,928.20 from the General Fund and $4,998,011.70 from the Stormwater Drainage Management Fund.

Recommended: Obtain the executed agreement and ask how the annual appropriations condition affects the City's payment obligations and termination rights. The $11,843,939.90 figure is only an estimate, so the contract terms determine what is actually owed.

Context: The agreement with RNDI Companies, Inc. was approved with an estimated $11,843,939.90 across the General Fund, Stormwater Drainage Management Fund, Community Development Block Grant Fund and Convention Center Construction Fund.

Recommended: Reach out to RNDI Companies, Inc. now about subcontracting on the four-year citywide asbestos abatement and demolition agreement. Because the work covers both City and non-City owned structures and four funding sources, task orders may be spread across many sites.

Context: The City Council approved a four-year agreement with RNDI Companies, Inc. at an estimated $11,843,939.90 as the most advantageous of three proposers, with no scoring shown in the record.

Recommended: File a records request for the proposal scoring and evaluation of all three proposers, to learn why RNDI Companies, Inc. was ranked most advantageous. Without it, the public cannot tell whether price or other factors drove an award of this size.
