Background: Christmas Eve is Sunday, December 24th and according to the Augusta Georgia Personnel Policy and Procedure Manual (PPPM) Section 100.006 Holidays, Christmas Eve will be observed on Christmas Day, Monday, December 25th. However, with December 25th being a holiday in its own right, the PPPM does not address granting the day after Christmas as a holiday. Pursuant to Augusta Georgia PPPM Section 100.006 Holidays, whenever a holiday falls on a Saturday, the preceding Friday shall be designated as a substitute holiday and observed as the official holiday for that year. Whenever the holiday falls on a Sunday, the following Monday shall be designated as the official holiday for that year. Holiday schedules may be adjusted at any time at the Administrator’s direction. Analysis: Other Counties Observance: Columbia County: Monday, December 25th and Tuesday, December 26th Burke County: Monday, December 25th and Tuesday, December 26th State of Georgia: Monday, December 25th and Tuesday, December 26th Financial Impact: Overtime pay for some employees working on the holiday. Alternatives: Do not approve December 26, 2017 as the official holiday to observe Christmas Day. Recommendation: Declare Christmas Eve Monday, December 25, 2017 and Christmas Day Tuesday, December 26, 2017 as the official holiday.

Clerk of Commission Administrative Services Committee Meeting 11/28/2017 1:05 PM 2017 Vehicle Maintenance Contract Extension Department: Central Services Department - Fleet Management Division Presenter: Takiyah A. Douse Caption: Approve a 1-year extension of the existing fleet maintenance contract with First Vehicle Services. Background: First Vehicle Services has been providing a full maintenance service contract for Augusta since 2003. Contract was entered into for a period of 3 years with provisions for two 1-year extensions, subject to the approval of the Augusta Commission. The current service contract was approved on March 18, 2014 (enclosure). It was extended for the first year on January 17, 2017 (enclosure). In 2017, the contract cost was reduced by $167,393.00 from 2016 due to a reduction in fleet assets and moving small equipment into a non-contract status. First Vehicle services was asked to provide pricing for the second and final extension. They would like to propose extending the 2017 pricing to 2018. The contract cost for 2018 would be $2,957,663.00. The wording for the extension is attached for review. No further options exist to extend the contract beyond 2018. Analysis: The proposal for the final year extension, by First Vehicle Services, is $2,957,663.00 for 2018. Financial Impact: The proposed and recommended budget for 2018 supports the First Vehicle Services proposal for $2,957,663.00. (626-01- 6440/5223113). Alternatives: (1) Approve the request; (2) Do not approve the request Recommendation: Approve the extension for 1-year of the fleet maintenance contract for $2,957,663.00.

Douse Caption: Approve a 1-year extension of the existing fleet maintenance contract with First Vehicle Services. Background: First Vehicle Services has been providing a full maintenance service contract for Augusta since 2003. Contract was entered into for a period of 3 years with provisions for two 1-year extensions, subject to the approval of the Augusta Commission. The current service contract was approved on March 18, 2014 (enclosure). It was extended for the first year on January 17, 2017 (enclosure). In 2017, the contract cost was reduced by $167,393.00 from 2016 due to a reduction in fleet assets and moving small equipment into a non-contract status. First Vehicle services was asked to provide pricing for the second and final extension. They would like to propose extending the 2017 pricing to 2018. The contract cost for 2018 would be $2,957,663.00. The wording for the extension is attached for review. No further options exist to extend the contract beyond 2018. Analysis: The proposal for the final year extension, by First Vehicle Services, is $2,957,663.00 for 2018. Financial Impact: The proposed and recommended budget for 2018 supports the First Vehicle Services proposal for $2,957,663.00. (626-01- 6440/5223113). Alternatives: (1) Approve the request; (2) Do not approve the request Recommendation: Approve the extension for 1-year of the fleet maintenance contract for $2,957,663.00.
