8.Intergovernmental Support Agreement Update
Public Works Director Russell provided an overview and update of the Intergovernmental Support
Agreement. Services under the agreement began earlier this year with pest control services starting in
January, janitorial services in March, and solid waste in July.
LTC Johnson reported that the pest control services were being used to address an issue with squirrels in
the residential area of PFRTA. Councilmember Kumagai asked about the maintenance contract and
whether those services would be provided by MCE. Director Russell confirmed that MCE would provide the
services and would need to staff up to meet the workload. LTC Johnson stated that while PRFTA is
currently at minimum operating capacity, there will be more buildings with maintenance needs once they
return to normal operations. Councilmember Hernandez asked if MCE would be able to handle staffing up,
which City Manager Smith answered that the City would only take this on if MCE would be able to handle
the work and would have no impact on the City’s current maintenance needs.
