EXHIBIT A
SCOPE OF WORK
Section 1.0 Scope of duties related to daily operations:
1.1 Background
The City of Fort Collins is responsible for operating two parking structures in the core
downtown area. The intent of this proposal is to solicit Security Officer services for both
facilities. Two security officers will be required with one stationed at each facility. The
expectation is that each officer would be responsible for all phases of building protection,
including, but not limited to: guarding the premises against fire, theft, pilferage, malicious
injury, damage and destruction. Safety of the booth attendants and the patrons utilizing the
parking structures is ranked as the primary importance of this service.
The Old Town Parking Structure is located at the corner of Remington Street and East
Mountain Avenue in downtown Fort Collins. The parking structure is approximately
104,000 square feet with four parking levels. There are two stairwells. The north stairwell
is enclosed and has an elevator. A parking attendant is stationed in the booth and access
is controlled by automated equipment during specific hours and automated pay stations
after hours.
Security officers patrol on foot. At an undisclosed time after the garage closes, the security
officer removes money from a drop vault. Money is then transported to First National Bank
and deposited in the night deposit drop.
The Civic Center Parking Structure (CCPS) is located at the intersection of LaPorte
Avenue and Mason Street. The structure is 304,000 square feet with four levels and a fifth
tier. Co -located on the west side of the building is 15,000 square feet of retail space that is
owned and operated by Post Modern Development, Inc.
CCPS has two stair/elevator towers and two additional stairwells. A pedestrian walkway
from the CCPS to the Opera Galleria provides access and egress to College Avenue at
the second level. There are also two pedestrian breezeways on the West Side of the
structure allowing for access/egress to retail businesses and Mason Street.
Parking operations at this location are similar to operations at the Old Town Parking
Structure, with the exception of two entrance/exit locations both having a booth, an
attendant, automated gate arms and pay stations. Like the Old Town garage, security
officers will patrol on foot in the Civic Center garage.
Like the Old Town garage, the security officer will remove money from a vault and
transport it to the bank. The coordination with the officer at Old Town for use of the
vehicle will be needed.
A Security Office will be provided at the south east end of the structure for personnel
provided from the security agency.
The selected security vendor will provide coverage for both parking structures from 7:00
p.m. to 3:00 a.m., seven days per week. A complete patrol of each structure must be
done at least two times per hour.
1.2 Scope of Work:
a) The area of coverage should be within the parking structures with the exception of
exigent circumstances.
Services Agreement
7442 Security Services for Parking Structures Page 8 of 14
b) Routine rounds of the facilities should be performed at least two times per hour. Once
per hour, the round must include checking the functionality of the access and control
equipment (gates, ticket dispensers, pay machines.)
c) A security officer report including a time log of the shift events must be
submitted daily. The officer will complete and drop off this report at the Parking
Services office prior to leaving each day. The report should include a summary
of activities on the rounds, and details about any unusual incidents that occur
during the shift.
d) Security personnel must be available to insure the booth attendant's safety at bar
closure, shift end, and anytime the attendants notify security that they need to leave
the booth.
e) All secured areas should be locked at the specified times. The areas include but are
not limited to the following:
1) 2 Breezeways allowing access to Mason Street.
2) Walkway to Opera Galleria
3) Loading dock
4) Entrances and exits
e) Officers will be required to pick up money from the drop vaults located in the attendant
booths. The money may be temporarily moved to another vault or the bank or as
directed by the City Representative.
f) Officers will monitor and assist parking staff with disgruntled customers on an as need
basis should conflicts arise. The officer will have communication capability with booth
attendants via cell phone, 2-way radio and a desk telephone located in the security
office. The attendants will be able to contact the security personnel by similar means.
g) From time to time, incidents may occur that require the security officer to contact the
Fort Collins Police Department (FCPD). When FCPD is contacted, a police case
number must be included on the daily report and any incident report that is completed
by the security officer. Items that must be reported to the police include, but are not
limited to, the following: 1) When a vehicle is damaged by either another vehicle or
vandalism. 2) Any sort of physical altercations. 3) Any verbal altercations that
involve threats of physical harm. 4) Any display of a weapon, or threat to use a
weapon. 5) Vandalism to the parking structure or any of the equipment. Graffiti
would be excluded unless the responsible person has been detained. 6) Contact with
an inebriated individual who insists upon driving. If a crime has been committed on
City property, the police should be notified. They will make the judgment as to
whether the incident warrants dispatching an officer.
h) Any emergencies should be reported immediately to the City's representative.
Emergency circumstances could include but not limited to theft, personal injury,
property damage etc.
i) Security officers will be issued a set of keys to the building and the automated parking
equipment. Each officer will be issued a parking garage access card (also called a
proximity card, or prox card) that they will be required to use any time they enter or
exit a structure in a vehicle.
j) In the event of a broken gate arm or a need to lower and raise the gates the officer will
be trained to repair and reposition the gates. They will also be trained by the City
